Recommendation: The School Board was unable to provide sufficient documentation for grant asset disposals. Four of the assets tested in the audit were missing and no disposal documentation could be provided. The School Board should comply with the policies and procedures concerning asset disposals to ensure that all assets are properly accounted for and are disposed of properly. Corrective Action Plan: As assets become broken or obsolete, they are transferred to the warehouse for sale. This is evidenced by completing transfer forms which are signed by the principal or supervisor releasing the asset(s). Once an asset reaches the warehouse, it is segregated either by size or type. Large assets are normally itemized separately, while smaller items or computer related items are bundled together into a large gaylord box and sold as is. In this case, our auditors possessed signed transfer forms, but concluded during their review of disposals that the eventual asset itemizations were not sufficient or non-existent. Going forward, warehouse staff will commence their online auctions with full itemizations to show proof of disposal.

Recommendation: Federal regulations require the School Board to verify vendors are not suspended, debarred or otherwise excluded from doing business with the federal government prior to doing business with them. Failure to verify vendors are allowed to do business with the School Board could lead to non-compliance. The School Board should implement policies and procedures to ensure that the verification of vendors is done prior to doing business with them. Corrective Action Plan: The Lafayette Parish School Board has a defined process in place to ensure debarment checks are being performed. As new vendors are setup, a debarment check is performed when federal funds are to be associated with a vendor. In addition, many vendors are utilized year after year, which is after an initial debarment check is performed. With respect to this audit, staff will ensure adequate records are maintained and stored to show proof of performance of this requirement.

2024-005: Student Financial Audit Cluster - Special Tests and Provisions: Enrollment Reporting (Significant Deficiency) Corrective Action: Upon investigation, we discovered that even though Casper College is reporting our enrollment to the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) in a timely fashion, those reports are not always being sent to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) swiftly. We understand that NSC is a third-party servicer and ultimately, the institution is responsible for ensuring NSLDS is being updated properly. As a failsafe, Casper College has developed an internal audit procedure to manually update students in NSLDS to be in compliance with CFR 690.83.

2024-002 – Suspension and Debarment – Verification. Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. The City did not provide evidence that two out of three vendors being awarded procurements are not suspended, debarred or otherwise excluded when the City hired the vendors to provide goods or services. The failure to monitor suspension and debarment could cause funds to be disbursed to contractors or vendors who are not eligible to have goods or services purchased with federal monies. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend that the City review its written policies and procedures over federal awards and enforce to ensure that the appropriate suspension and debarment evidence of verifications are retained for all vendors providing goods or services in excess of$25,000. Responsible Person: Marti Praschan, Chief Financial Officer. Corrective Action. Management concurs with the finding. The City has recently hired a Finance Specialist who will be responsible for federal award compliance, including suspension and debarment verifications. This person will be tasked with retaining documentation for all vendors awarded federal funding in excess of $25,000. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2025.

Condition: The School District did not have sufficient controls in place to ensure compliance with its procurement policy and that appropriate documentation is retained regarding the procurement methodology chosen and support for compliance with the suspension and debarment requirements. Planned Corrective Action: This finding was due to the District having turnover among key personnel in the grants area, as well as non-adherence to policies and procedures related to grant records, grant accounting, and year-end close processes. The District will work with the Materials and Procurement department to ensure policies and procedures are updated and staff is trained. Prior to awarding any contract, District staff will search the federal Excluded Parties List System to determine that the contractor is not suspended or debarred. Documentation of this search will be maintained in the grant procurement file.

Condition: Throughout the year, there was no control in place to ensure required reports were filed timely and in accordance with the grant agreement.
