Our corrective action plan is to address the Federal Awards Findings, 2024-001: Procurement and Suspension and Debarment - Compliance Finding. It was the Company's understanding that the grant monies were Utah State-related and not under the Federal requirements. We were notified by the State in April 2024 that we were considered as subrecipients. The Comapny accountant, Dallen Henderson, will work with Company secretary, Kay Meikle, to verify vendors are not debarred or suspended and will report back to the General Manager, Rick Smith, to meet the requirements. As this funding continues, we will do this process annually and-or when we add a new contractor/vendor.

Anticipated Completion Date: January 31, 2025 Responsible Contact Person: Andrew Szalay The root of this “significant finding” has been among the Program staff capturing receipts for small expenditures, such as water and ice, and such, from convenient stores, during construction with Habitat volunteers. These were all credit card receipts. In the fall of 2024, Habitat management have conducted two types of meetings to ensure source documentation is collected and submitted with financial records: 1. Individual conversations with every credit card holder about the importance of turning in receipts, no matter how small, documentation is critical. 2. Goup meeting with the “frequent offenders” and further emphasized the importance of turning in receipts. Credit card holders were warned that credit card privileges may be revoked if the problem continues. In addition, additional tools may be put into place to capture and retain documentation. This may include vendor apps and digital upload tools. Policies will also be reviewed to ensure practices and terms are consistent and clear for both credit card holders and other staff that submit expense reimbursement forms.

During our testing of disbursements, it was noted that the College did not follow their procurement policy for purchases over the micro purchase threshold and there is no procedure in place to determine whether vendors are suspended or debarred.

Corrective Action. College to create a procedure that will require a vendor search to determine if vendors are listed as suspended or debarred, or otherwise excluded from participating, before engaging with them. In addition, the college will remind employees involved in purchasing that they must follow the college’s threshold regarding amounts of purchases. Responsible Party.

Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) Preparation Corrective Action Plan As part of the year-end closing process and in preparation for the audit, UMHS finance department was understaffed and to help in the interim, CLA was hired to add capacity and help with accounting functions for UMHS, including the SEFA. The auditors noted that the SEFA had been provided to them without proper review by the management of UM HS. In response, UM HS reviewed the SEFA for fiscal year 2024. Going forward, UMHS is adding more staff capacity to the finance department and recently hired two new experienced finance team members with knowledge in payroll, AP and procurement. Additionally, UMHS initiated recruitment for a permanent Director of Finance in summer 2024 and the search to hire for this position is open and ongoing.

Reconciliations and Material Adjustments Corrective Action Plan Umatilla Morrow Head Start, Inc. recently added capacity and experience to the finance department by hiring two new staff members, a Payroll Specialist and an AP and Procurement Specialist. In addition, best practices and reconciliation timelines and guidance are being captured in financial policies and procedures being updated at this time. UMHS has also implemented new software tools that will assist in automating the department, providing additional time for staff members to implement a monthly review that includes reconciliations and tracking. This "internal auditing" process is relatively new to the department and will add a layer of accountability and accuracy in the recording and processing of the organization's financial activity. In addition, UMHS initiated recruitment for a permanent Director of Finance in summer 2024 and the search to hire for this position is open and ongoing. To supplement and support the current staff, UMHS will continue to provide additional training and guidance to the finance team to stay ahead of changes to federal and state guidelines, and to build on the knowledge and experience of the team. Adding a permanent Director of Finance will be essential as that staff member will be a member of the Senior Leadership Team and working in supporting and staffing the monthly Finance Committee meetings and supporting the UMHS Board of Directors' Treasurer. UMHS Senior Leadership Team will review and approve year-end financial schedules being provided to the auditors, as well as provide additional oversight and approval of year-end entries and closing processes.
