Criteria: 2 CFR 200.313(d)(2) requires the non-Federal entity take a physical inventory of property and reconcile the results with the property records at least once every two years. 2 CFR 200.313(d)(1) requires “property records must be maintained that include a description of the property, a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property…” Condition: The University did not complete a full physical inventory at least once every 2 years as required and did not reconcile the results with its property records. Additionally, one equipment item did not have a fixed asset tag. Context: The University’s Fixed Asset Policy and related procedures require inventories of property and equipment to be conducted at least once every 2 years. In addition, each equipment item is required to have a unique identifier or a fixed asset tag. The University has 22 departments for which a physical inventory was required. We noted that in fiscal years 2023 and 2024, physical inventories were conducted for 12 and 20 departments, respectively. In 2025, physical inventories for the remaining 2 departments were completed. However, as of June 30, 2024, the inventory results had not been reconciled to the property records. Further, in testing a non-statistical sample of seven equipment items we noted that one item did not have a unique identifier or a fixed asset tag. Cause: Although the University has established policies and procedures in place for the physical inventory and reconciliation of property and equipment and fixed asset tagging, management indicated that staffing limitations, combined with a campus relocation, closure of the Hawai‘i Loa campus and ongoing construction of its science laboratories, hindered the University’s ability to complete the inventories and reconciliations within the required timeframe. Effect: Failure to perform physical inventory of property and reconcile the results with the property records at least once every two years, and failure to properly tag equipment items resulted in noncompliance with the equipment and real property management requirements which increases the risk of misappropriation, loss, or inaccurate reporting of federally funded assets. Questioned Costs: None Identification of a repeat finding: This is a repeat finding of 2023-003. Recommendations: We recommend the University review and update its current fixed asset inventory and tagging processes to ensure compliance with the requirements. Specifically, we recommend the following: 1. Developing and implementing a corrective action plan to address the barriers that prevented timely completion of the physical inventory and reconciliations, including: • Assessing staffing needs and allocating adequate resources, whether through additional personnel, temporary assistance, or reallocation of responsibilities, to ensure physical inventories and reconciliations are completed timely. • Establishing a formal timeline and monitoring process for conducting and reconciling physical inventories of all departments within the required two-year cycle. • Identifying opportunities to leverage technology or asset management software to streamline and document the inventory and reconciliation process. 2. Ensuring that all equipment items are appropriately tagged or assigned unique identifiers in accordance with its Fixed Asset Policy and 2 CFR 200.313(d)(1). 3. Providing training and guidance to responsible staff on the inventory process, reconciliation procedures, and tagging requirements to reinforce accountability and ensure consistent application of policies. Views of responsible officials: The University initiated a thorough inventory process, including a requirement to tag and photograph all assets, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. The inventory process was started on schedule in May 2024, and departments were asked to complete their inventory procedures and sign off on the inventory reports by June 2024. Despite the additional complications created by the University’s campus relocation project necessitated by the closure of the Hawai‘i Loa campus and the construction of the science laboratories, 91% of the departments completed their inventories prior to June 30, 2024. The remaining 9% of departments completed their inventories after requesting an extension and/or providing additional details on the requested inventory items in the meantime, and these inventories were completed during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. These results demonstrate improvement and progress compared to the prior year’s finding in this area and illustrate the University’s commitment to adhering to tits fixed asset inventory processes and procedures. The University is committed to addressing these issues promptly and effectively to ensure compliance with federal regulations. Accordingly, the University will conduct a thorough review of its inventory procedures, timing, technologies, training resources, and resource allocations to ensure that the next inventory process is designed to enable completion and reconciliation prior to the fiscal-year end, to include the tagging and identification of all inventory items.
