The City has taken several steps to strengthen its
FFATA compliance.
In response to this audit finding, the City has
implemented the following corrective actions:
1. Standardized Data Collection:
An updated subrecipient data collection form has been developed to ensure consistent and complete capture of all required FFATA elements prior to contract execution.
2. Formal Tracking System:
The City created a FFATA Tracking Spreadsheet to systematically document and monitor all required reporting elements, including the correct obligation date, which is now tied to the legal execution date of the subaward.
3. Policy and Procedure Development:
FFATA reporting policy and procedures have been developed to codify roles, timelines, and compliance responsibilities. This includes guidance on identifying the
proper obligation date, data verification steps, and the timeline for submission to SAM.gov (within 30 days of obligation).
4. Staff Training and Oversight:
Relevant staff will be trained on FFATA compliance requirements, and the Grants Management Division will conduct quarterly spot checks to ensure accuracy and timeliness of reporting.
