2024-001 – Subrecipient Monitoring Cluster: Research and Development Cluster (“R&D Cluster”) Grantor: Various - All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Award Name: Various - All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Award Year: FY2024 Assistance Listing Number: Various – All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Pass-through entities and ID Number: Various - All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Condition The University has a detailed pre-award risk assessment process prior to entering into a subrecipient relationship, which includes review of subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports. Subsequent review of Uniform Guidance reports for monitoring purposes is completed at the time of a subaward amendment. However, subawards are not always amended within a year, which creates a potential gap in review. In the FY2023 audit, 4 out of the 25 subaward selections did not have a Uniform Guidance report review or other monitoring review during the year, which resulted in a reportable finding. In FY2024, in response to the FY2023 finding in subrecipient monitoring (2023-001), the University implemented an annual Post-Award review of all subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports. This review documented the report information, findings noted, and follow-up performed with the subrecipient, as necessary. However, this consolidated review was deemed to be incomplete, as 1 of the 25 subrecipient selections was not included in the Post-Award review of all subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports. Management subsequently reviewed the completeness of the consolidated review, and determined a total of 12 subrecipients were not monitored in FY2024. Criteria 2 CFR 200.332(d) notes that pass-through entity monitoring of the subrecipient must include: • Reviewing financial and performance reports required by the pass-through entity. • Following-up and ensuring that the subrecipient takes timely and appropriate action on all deficiencies pertaining to the Federal award provided to the subrecipient from the pass-through entity detected through audits, on-site reviews, and written confirmation from the subrecipient, highlighting the status of actions planned or taken to address Single Audit findings related to the particular subaward. • Issuing a management decision for applicable audit findings pertaining only to the Federal award provided to the subrecipient from the pass-through entity as required by 2 CFR 200.521. Additionally, 2 CFR 200.332(f) notes that a pass-through entity must verify that every subrecipient is audited as required by the Uniform Guidance when it is expected that the subrecipient's Federal awards expended during the respective fiscal year equaled or exceeded the threshold set forth in 2 CFR 200.501. Cause In compiling the consolidated analysis of all subrecipients with active funding during the fiscal year, the Post-Award team utilized reporting of subrecipient expenditures from the general ledger. This report inadvertently omitted a period of time during the fiscal year, which caused omission of select subrecipients from the consolidated Post-Award analysis. Effect The lack of an annual review of subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports may result in potential compliance issues not being identified and management not addressing findings and issuing a management decision, as required under the Uniform Guidance. Questioned Costs There are no questioned costs associated with this finding. Through audit procedures, there was no evidence of non-compliance from subrecipients. Recommendation We recommend the University address the completeness of their consolidated subrecipient monitoring through review of the reports used to compile the analysis.

2024-001 – Subrecipient Monitoring Cluster: Research and Development Cluster (“R&D Cluster”) Grantor: Various - All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Award Name: Various - All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Award Year: FY2024 Assistance Listing Number: Various – All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Pass-through entities and ID Number: Various - All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Condition The University has a detailed pre-award risk assessment process prior to entering into a subrecipient relationship, which includes review of subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports. Subsequent review of Uniform Guidance reports for monitoring purposes is completed at the time of a subaward amendment. However, subawards are not always amended within a year, which creates a potential gap in review. In the FY2023 audit, 4 out of the 25 subaward selections did not have a Uniform Guidance report review or other monitoring review during the year, which resulted in a reportable finding. In FY2024, in response to the FY2023 finding in subrecipient monitoring (2023-001), the University implemented an annual Post-Award review of all subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports. This review documented the report information, findings noted, and follow-up performed with the subrecipient, as necessary. However, this consolidated review was deemed to be incomplete, as 1 of the 25 subrecipient selections was not included in the Post-Award review of all subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports. Management subsequently reviewed the completeness of the consolidated review, and determined a total of 12 subrecipients were not monitored in FY2024. Criteria 2 CFR 200.332(d) notes that pass-through entity monitoring of the subrecipient must include: • Reviewing financial and performance reports required by the pass-through entity. • Following-up and ensuring that the subrecipient takes timely and appropriate action on all deficiencies pertaining to the Federal award provided to the subrecipient from the pass-through entity detected through audits, on-site reviews, and written confirmation from the subrecipient, highlighting the status of actions planned or taken to address Single Audit findings related to the particular subaward. • Issuing a management decision for applicable audit findings pertaining only to the Federal award provided to the subrecipient from the pass-through entity as required by 2 CFR 200.521. Additionally, 2 CFR 200.332(f) notes that a pass-through entity must verify that every subrecipient is audited as required by the Uniform Guidance when it is expected that the subrecipient's Federal awards expended during the respective fiscal year equaled or exceeded the threshold set forth in 2 CFR 200.501. Cause In compiling the consolidated analysis of all subrecipients with active funding during the fiscal year, the Post-Award team utilized reporting of subrecipient expenditures from the general ledger. This report inadvertently omitted a period of time during the fiscal year, which caused omission of select subrecipients from the consolidated Post-Award analysis. Effect The lack of an annual review of subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports may result in potential compliance issues not being identified and management not addressing findings and issuing a management decision, as required under the Uniform Guidance. Questioned Costs There are no questioned costs associated with this finding. Through audit procedures, there was no evidence of non-compliance from subrecipients.

2024-001 – Subrecipient Monitoring Cluster: Research and Development Cluster (“R&D Cluster”) Grantor: Various - All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Award Name: Various - All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Award Year: FY2024 Assistance Listing Number: Various – All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Pass-through entities and ID Number: Various - All R&D Cluster awards with subrecipients Condition The University has a detailed pre-award risk assessment process prior to entering into a subrecipient relationship, which includes review of subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports. Subsequent review of Uniform Guidance reports for monitoring purposes is completed at the time of a subaward amendment. However, subawards are not always amended within a year, which creates a potential gap in review. In the FY2023 audit, 4 out of the 25 subaward selections did not have a Uniform Guidance report review or other monitoring review during the year, which resulted in a reportable finding. In FY2024, in response to the FY2023 finding in subrecipient monitoring (2023-001), the University implemented an annual Post-Award review of all subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports. This review documented the report information, findings noted, and follow-up performed with the subrecipient, as necessary. However, this consolidated review was deemed to be incomplete, as 1 of the 25 subrecipient selections was not included in the Post-Award review of all subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports. Management subsequently reviewed the completeness of the consolidated review, and determined a total of 12 subrecipients were not monitored in FY2024. Criteria 2 CFR 200.332(d) notes that pass-through entity monitoring of the subrecipient must include: • Reviewing financial and performance reports required by the pass-through entity. • Following-up and ensuring that the subrecipient takes timely and appropriate action on all deficiencies pertaining to the Federal award provided to the subrecipient from the pass-through entity detected through audits, on-site reviews, and written confirmation from the subrecipient, highlighting the status of actions planned or taken to address Single Audit findings related to the particular subaward. • Issuing a management decision for applicable audit findings pertaining only to the Federal award provided to the subrecipient from the pass-through entity as required by 2 CFR 200.521. Additionally, 2 CFR 200.332(f) notes that a pass-through entity must verify that every subrecipient is audited as required by the Uniform Guidance when it is expected that the subrecipient's Federal awards expended during the respective fiscal year equaled or exceeded the threshold set forth in 2 CFR 200.501. Cause In compiling the consolidated analysis of all subrecipients with active funding during the fiscal year, the Post-Award team utilized reporting of subrecipient expenditures from the general ledger. This report inadvertently omitted a period of time during the fiscal year, which caused omission of select subrecipients from the consolidated Post-Award analysis. Effect The lack of an annual review of subrecipient Uniform Guidance reports may result in potential compliance issues not being identified and management not addressing findings and issuing a management decision, as required under the Uniform Guidance. Questioned Costs There are no questioned costs associated with this finding. Through audit procedures, there was no evidence of non-compliance from subrecipients.

Verify that every subrecipient is audited as required by Subpart F of this part when it is expected that the Federal awards expended during the respective fiscal year equaled or exceeded the threshold set forth in §200.501. Condition: The Foundation is not in compliance with recordkeeping for program monitoring and evaluation, as the Foundation did not comprehensively asses all subrecipients using riskbased/ subrecipient monitoring policies and procedures. Questioned Costs: None noted. Cause: Staff were not aware of the extent of the requirements to monitor program and fiscal compliance of project sponsors and document results and evidence of compliance or non-compliance. Therefore, a number of project sponsors/subrecipients were not monitored. Effect: Granting agencies cannot determine whether the Foundation is ensuring that the project sponsor is carrying out activities in compliance with all applicable requirements. Recommendation: The Foundation provide written policies and procedures for project sponsor monitoring and oversight, create a risk analysis form/process for all funded project sponsors and create a timeline to monitor project sponsors based on the risk analysis completed. Views of Responsible Officials: The Foundation has updated its Quality Management Plan to include comprehensive subrecipient monitoring policies. The Quality Management team is working with all programming to implement a robust monitoring process, including risk assessments, adherence to grantor regulations, service delivery, and program outcomes.
