Assistance Listing Number(s): 21.027 Name of Federal Program or Cluster: COVID-19 Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Name of Federal Agency: Department of the Treasury Name of Pass-through Entity: City of Madison, City of Sun Prairie, Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development Award Period: January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022; September 22, 2021 through December 31, 2024; June 20, 2022 through June 30, 2025 Criteria or Specific Requirement: 2 CFR section 200.318(a) requires a non-federal entity to have and use documented procurement procedures, consistent with state, local, and tribal laws and regulations and the standards of 2 CFR sections 200.317 through 200.327. 2 CFR section 200.318(c)(1) requires a nonfederal entity to maintain written standards of conduct covering conflicts of interest and governing the actions of its employees engaged in the selection, award and administration of contracts. 2 CFR section 200.318(i) requires a non-federal entity to maintain records sufficient to detail the history of procurement including, but not limited to, the: rationale for the method of procurement, selection of contract type, contractor selection or rejection, and the basis for the contract price. Condition and Context: There are no documented procurement procedures that meet the requirements of 2 CFR sections 200.317 through 200.327. While there is a conflict-of-interest policy, it does not specifically include standards of conduct covering conflicts of interest for procurement. There are no designed and implemented internal controls documented to ensure compliance with 2 CFR sections 200.317 through 200.327. For three significant transactions tested there were no documentation of the rationale for the method, documentation to support a required procurement method used, contractor selections or rejections, suspension and debarment, and bases for contract prices. The only support documented are the invoices. Total procurements were $482,904. Cause: The organization began charging procurement transactions in the current year to federal awards. The organization’s staff did not understand how to document the procurement history. Effect or Potential Effect: Questioned costs may be disallowed and required to be repaid. Questioned Costs: $365,501; total of the three significant transactions tested. Repeat Finding: No. Recommendation: The organization should develop and document procurement procedures that meet state, local, and Uniform Guidance requirements. The conflict-of-interest policy should be updated to include standards of conduct for those involved in procuring and to include organizational conflicts of interest. Internal controls should be designed, implemented, and documented within the procurement procedures to ensure compliance with 2 CFR sections 200.317 through 200.327. At a minimum, the procurement history including rationale for the method, procurement method support, contract selections and rejections, suspension and debarment, and bases for contract prices should be documented. Views of Responsible Officials: Boys and Girls Club of Dane County, Inc. agrees with the finding and is implementing procurement and conflict-of-interest policies.

Criteria Non‐federal entities other than states, including those operating federal programs as subrecipients of states, must follow the procurement standards set out at 2 CFR §§200.318 through 200.326. They must use their own documented procurement procedures, which reflect applicable state and local laws and regulations, provided that the procurements conform to applicable federal statutes and the procurement requirements identified in 2 CFR part 200. Additionally, non‐federal entities are prohibited from contracting with or making subawards under covered transactions to parties that are suspended or debarred. When a non‐federal entity enters into a covered transaction with an entity at a lower tier, the non‐federal entity must verify that the entity, as defined in 2 CFR §180.995 and agency adopting regulations, is not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in the transaction. This verification may be accomplished by checking the System of Award Management (SAM) 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 (2 CFR §180.300). Condition Adequate internal controls over its procurement procedures to ensure compliance with Uniform Guidance regulations and guidelines were not in place. The YWCA did not have Board adopted policies over procurement with federal dollars. The YWCA did not meet the requirement to verify that covered transactions were only made to an entity that was not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded. Lastly, the YWCA did not follow federal guidelines for purchases exceeding the small purchases threshold. Cause The YWCA’s internal controls over procurement of goods and services were not adequate. Effect The YWCA was not in compliance with the Uniform Guidance regulations and guidelines related to suspension and debarment or procurement. Context During our review of procurement, we noted the following: - The YWCA did not have formal written procedures over procurement. - For one purchase reviewed over $10,000, the YWCA did not go through formal procurement. There was no formal documentation maintained by the YWCA to show prior‐purchase authorization being granted. - For one purchase reviewed over $25,000, the YWCA did not perform a vendor check for suspension and debarment. The sample was not intended to be, and was not, a statistically valid sample. Recommendation The YWCA should develop and implement policies and procedures over procurement to ensure compliance with Uniform Guidance requirements under 2 CFR §180.300 and §200.318 through 326. Views of Responsible Officials See Corrective Action Plan.
Noncompliance and Material Weakness 2 CFR § 3474.1 provides that the Department of Education (DOE) adopts the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Guidance in 2 CFR part 200. Thus, this section gives regulatory effect to the OMB guidance and supplements the guidance as needed for the DOE, except as otherwise noted in that section. 2 CFR Section 200.320(b) states in part that when the value of the procurement for property or services under a Federal financial assistance award exceeds the simplified acquisition threshold, or a lower threshold established by a non-Federal entity, formal procurement methods are required. Formal procurement methods require following documented procedures. Formal procurement methods also require public advertising unless a non-competitive procurement can be used in accordance with § 200.319 or paragraph (c) of this section. 2 CFR § 200.318(e) states to foster greater economy and efficiency, and in accordance with efforts to promote cost-effective use of shared services across the Federal Government, the non-Federal entity is encouraged to enter into state and local intergovernmental agreements or inter-entity agreements where appropriate for procurement or use of common or shared goods and services. Competition requirements will be met with documented procurement actions using strategic sourcing, shared services, and other similar procurement arrangements. 2 CFR §200.320 (a)(2) states small purchases are the acquisition of property or services, the aggregate dollar amount of which is higher than the micro-purchase threshold but does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. If small purchase procedures are used, price or rate quotations must be obtained from an adequate number of qualified sources as determined appropriate by the non-Federal entity. Ohio Rev. Code § 167.081, states, in part, that a regional council may enter into a unit price contract for materials, labor, services, overhead, profit, and associated expenses for the repair, enlargement, improvement, or demolition of a building or structure if the contract is awarded pursuant to a competitive bidding procedure of a county, municipal corporation, or township or a special district, school district, or other political subdivision that is a council member. A political subdivision that is a member of a regional council may participate in a contract entered into under Ohio Rev. Code § 167.081. Purchases under a contract entered into under Ohio Rev. Code § 167.081 are exempt from any competitive selection or bidding requirements otherwise required by law. The School District participated in KPC’s purchasing cooperative unit price contract with Bluegrass Recreation., for the School District's playground resurfacing project pursuant to Ohio Rev. Code § 167.081. Additionally, the District participated in The Ohio Purchasing Council’s unit price contract with Prodigy Building Solutions, LLC., for the School District's roofing, HVAC, and Lighting project, pursuant to Ohio Rev. Code § 167.081. The School District utilized ESSER grant funds for parts of these projects. The School District did not maintain documentation that KPC or Ohio Purchasing Council followed competitive bidding procedures of a council member pursuant to Ohio Revised Code § 167.081 when awarding the unit price contract to Bluegrass Recreation and Prodigy Building Solutions respectively, failing to meet the documentation requirements of 2 CFR § 200.320(b) and 2 CFR § 200.318(e) noted above. The School District also failed to obtain an adequate number of quotes from qualified sources for purchases of a van and floor scrubbers with ESSER grant funds as required by 2 CFR §200.320 (a)(2) noted above. Failure to comply with the applicable Uniform Guidance Requirements and the Ohio Revised Code could result in further citations for the School District and potential loss of grant funding. The School District should review Uniform Guidance Requirements and the Ohio Revised Code before entering any contracts that require competitive bidding. The School District should maintain appropriate documentation to evidence that compliance requirements have been met.
