(2023-005) Late Submission of Single Audit Reporting Package Criteria Per 2 CFR § 200.512(l), non-federal entities must submit the Single Audit reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report or nine months after the f...
(2023-005) Late Submission of Single Audit Reporting Package Criteria Per 2 CFR § 200.512(l), non-federal entities must submit the Single Audit reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report or nine months after the fiscal year-end. Condition The District’s reporting package for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, was not submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the required timeframe. As of the date of this report, the reporting package has not yet been submitted. Cause The District did not have adequate procedures in place to ensure timely completion of the financial audit and preparation of the reporting package. Effect The District did not comply with the Uniform Guidance submission deadline, which may impact the timeliness of federal oversight and potentially affect future federal funding decisions. Questioned Costs No questioned costs were identified as a result of our procedures. Context/Sampling The FY2023 Single audit was performed in 2025 after it was determined that the grant funds were expended on eligible activities, triggering the Single Audit requirement. The delay was due to the District not identifying the requirement timely and lacking procedures to ensure prompt submission. Recommendation We recommend that the District implement processes and internal controls to ensure future Single Audits are completed and submitted within the required timeframe. Management’s Corrective Action Planned Management concurs with the recommendation. IVGID will establish a procedure to review and reconcile grants both federal and state at year-end to determine the need for a single audit and submission to the required agencies.

(2023-004) Documentation of Purchasing Compliance - Significant deficiency Criteria Per CFR §180.300 and 2 CFR §200.214, the District must verify vendors are not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in a covered transaction. This verification may be accomplished by checking the Excluded Parties List System (EPLS) maintained by the General Services Administration (GSA); collecting a certification from the entity, or adding a clause or condition to the covered transaction with that entity. Condition During our testing of suspension and debarment compliance, we noted that the District did not retain documentation demonstrating that vendors were verified as not suspended, debarred, or otherwise excluded from participation in federal programs prior to execution of two contracts, each with expenditures exceeding $25,000. Cause The District did not have formalized procedures to ensure suspension and debarment verifications were performed and documented prior to executing covered contracts. Effect Without adequate verification and documentation, there is a risk that the District could contract with vendors who are ineligible to receive federal funds, resulting in noncompliance with federal regulations. Questioned Costs No questioned costs were identified as a result of our procedures. Context/Sampling Two vendor contracts with expenditures greater than $25,000 were selected for testing. In both cases, the District did not provide documentation of suspension and debarment verification at the time of contract execution. Recommendation We recommend that the District implement procedures to verify vendor eligibility prior to entering into federally funded contracts. Acceptable methods include retaining a SAM.gov screenshot, obtaining vendor certification, or including a suspension and debarment clause in the contract. The District should also ensure documentation is retained in the procurement file and assign responsibility for this task to appropriate staff. Training and periodic reviews should be conducted to reinforce compliance and reduce the risk of using ineligible vendors. Management’s Corrective Action Planned Management concurs with the recommendation. IVGID will implement a procedure to document the procurement process and review of suspension and debarment for all vendors that undergo the bidding process.

FINDING 2023-004 Finding Subject: COVID-19-Education Stabilization Fund - Special Tests and Provisions – Wage Rate Requirements Summary of Finding: Construction contracts in excess of $2,000 financed by federal assistance funds must pay wages not less than those established for the locality of the project (prevailing wage rates) by the Department of Labor (DOL) to their laborers and mechanics. Nonfederal entities are to include in their construction contracts subject to the Wage Rate Requirements a provision that the contractor or subcontractor comply with these requirements and the DOL regulations. This would include a requirement to submit a copy of the payroll and statement of compliance to the entity for each week in which contract work was performed. The School Corporation had not designed nor implemented a system of internal controls to ensure that construction contracts in excess of $2,000 paid from federal grant funds included a prevailing wage rate clause. One construction contract, totaling$149,995, was paid for with COVID-19 – Education Stabilization Fund grant funds during the audit period. The contract did not include the required prevailing wage rate clause, nor were the certified payrolls submitted by the contractor. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Leslie Rittenhouse Contact Phone Number and Email Address: 765-395-3341 Views of Responsible Officials: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: The district has no plans nor approved budget for any remaining ESSER funds to be used a manner which would relate to the prevailing wage rate clause. Should the district amend the use of ESSER funding to include such activity the prevailing wage clause requirements will be completed in full. Anticipated Completion Date: Immediately.

FINDING 2023-003 Finding Subject: COVID-19-Education Stabilization Fund - Reporting Summary of Finding: The School Corporation was required to submit an annual data report to the Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) via JotForm, a form/report builder. Data to be submitted included, but was not limited to, current period expenditures, prior period expenditures, and expenditures per activity. During the audit period the School Corporation submitted two ESSER I reports, two ESSER II reports and two ESSER III reports, for a total of six reports. The annual data reports were prepared by the Treasurer. Due to the lack of effective internal controls one of the six annual data reports was not supported by the School Corporation’s records. For the ESSER III, Year 2 report, which covered the period of July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022, total expenses per the report were $688,778. However, the School Corporation’s ledger had total expenses for the award, for that time period, of $784,638. The lack of controls and noncompliance were isolated to the ESSER III, Year 2 report. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Leslie Rittenhouse Contact Phone Number and Email Address: 765-395-3341 Views of Responsible Officials: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: As the finding and error occurred in one entry of one report the district will continue the practice of having a second party review financial system data against report entries. The error in this instance was a misunderstanding of the entry. A secondary review of reporting guidelines and entries will take place prior to submission of any ESSER Data Reporting. Anticipated Completion Date: Upon the next submission of ESSER Data reporting.
