Management Views and Corrective Action Plans 2022-001- Reporting on the Fiscal Operations Report and Application to Participate ("FISAP") Point of Contact- Robert Friedman, Director of Student Finance, (646-592-6255) Management agrees with the current year finding, which is related to the prior year finding, and the recommendations to enhance controls to include a reconciliation process, to ensure completeness and accuracy of the FISAP. In addition, management will process a request to make the necessary corrections through the COD website and follow the procedures for submitting changes onto the FISAP. The University's Controller's Office or its designee in conjunction with the Office of Student Finance will perform a review of the FISAP reconciliation prior to filing.

Management?s View and Corrective Action Plan Finding 2022-001 ? Cash Management Cluster: Research and Development Cluster Grantor: National Cancer Institute and National Science Foundation Assistance Listing #: 93.397, Cancer Centers Support Grants and 47.049, Mathematical and Physical Sciences Title: Case GI SPORE, Case Comprehensive Cancer Support Grant, MRI: Acquisition of an SEM instrumented to conduct in-operando observations of materials performance under external stimuli Award Year and Number: 08/21/21-07/31/22 (CA150964), 04/01/21-03/31/22 (CA043703), 08/01/20-07/31/23 (DMR-2018167) The University believes it is in compliance and currently follows regulations pertinent to cash management in 2 CFR Part 200.305(b) (Uniform Guidance) which requires "payments methods must minimize the time elapsing between the transfer of funds from the United States Treasury or the pass-through entity and the disbursement by the non-Federal entity." As such, organizations are to minimize the time difference between vendor payment and requesting reimbursement from the sponsoring agencies. We acknowledge that there are discrepancies in the interpretation of the Office of Management and Budget (0MB) cash management compliance requirements and the Uniform Guidance Part 200.305(b). In October 2017, the Council on Governmental Relations (COGR) sent a letter to the Office of Federal Financial Management (OFFM) expressing concerns that the cash management requirement language in the 2017 Compliance Supplement was not aligned with the requirements for cash management included in the Uniform Guidance Part 200.305(b). COGR's stance is for the Compliance Supplement to be updated to correspond with the cash management requirements as written in the Uniform Guidance Part 200.305(b). In August 2021, COGR sent a follow-up letter to OFFM regarding the 2021 Compliance Supplement emphasizing the inconsistency has yet to be addressed or resolved and most recently followed-up again in June 2022. In September 2022, The Office of Research Administration (ORA) sent a letter in support of COGR's June 2022 Comment Letter and followed up in November 2022 as well, with no response. The Office of Research Administration is sincerely devoted to ensuring institutional compliance with Uniform Guidance and the Compliance Supplement. It is important to note that these exceptions pertain to accounts payable transactions only. ORA will be cognizant of OMB's current interpretation of the Cash Management requirements and will continue to monitor for additional guidance regarding discrepancies in the Compliance Supplement. Primary responsibility for implementing this corrective action plan for this finding rests with Diane Domanovics, Assistant Vice President for Sponsored Projects. Sincerely, Joan Schenkel Associate Vice President for Research

Condition and Context Of the one report haphazardly selected for testing, it was unable to be tested as it was not provided. Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan The Agency maintains a filing system with signed placement agreements with its foster parents and files a copy within the Medical Record but not with the Foster Parent contract file. The Foster Parent Contract files explain the rights and responsibilities further and are maintained in a separate file from the placement agreements. In addition, the agency is in the process of obtaining an electronic signature platform for easier use in obtaining signatures on these and all agency contracts. Platform anticipated to be in place by fiscal year end. Responsible Official: Bernard Angst, CFO Implementation Date: June 30, 2023
