Conditions Found During our testwork over the Research and Development Cluster, we discovered that UAMS did not appropriately monitor subrecipient activities. UAMS is obligated to monitor the activities of subrecipients, including tracking subrecipient audits, requests, and other correspondence related to follow-up of corrective action items. UAMS did not complete these procedures. Cause UAMS did not have the personnel capacity during FY22 to effectively monitor subawards. Effect Failure to properly monitor subrecipients may prevent UAMS from being in compliance with the requirements set forth by the Uniform Guidance. Questioned costs Questioned costs are not determinable. Amounts passed through to subrecipients in FY22 totaled 11,860,890. Statistical Sample Not applicable Repeat Finding A similar finding was not reported in prior year audit. Recommendation We recommend that UAMS ensures the subrecipient monitoring compliance requirements are performed. View of responsible officials We concur with the finding. Due to staffing shortages and the implementation of a new financial system, we were unable to perform certain procedures related to subrecipient monitoring during the fiscal year. Management is hiring a new staff member who will be dedicated to ensure all activities related to subrecipient monitoring are in compliance with federal and program regulations.
