AI Summary

  • Core Issue: Reports were submitted late, missing the 30-day deadline after the reporting period.
  • Impacted Requirements: Non-compliance with 2 CFR Part 200 regarding timely performance report submissions.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Enhance internal monitoring to ensure timely completion and submission of reports for adequate review.

Finding Text

Criteria or specific requirement: 2 CFR Part 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Award requires compliance with the provisions of reporting. Specifically, per CFR 200.329(c)(1), “the non-Federal entity must submit performance reports at the interval required by the Federal awarding agency or pass-through entity to best inform improvements in program outcome and productivity…. Reports submitted quarterly or semiannual must be due no later than 30 calendar days after the reporting period.” In addition, Uniform Grant Guidance (2 CFR 200.303) requires nonfederal entities receiving Federal awards establish and maintain internal controls designed to reasonably ensure compliance with Federal laws, regulations, and program compliance requirements. Condition: During our testing, we noted some reports tested were not submitted within 30 days after the end of the quarterly reporting period. Questioned costs: None. Context: Two of eight reports tested under ALN 11.437 and two of five reports tested under ALN 11.022 were submitted 1 day after the due date. The ALN 11.437 reports related to the program quarter ended 2/28/2023 and the ALN 11.022 reports related to the program quarter ended 4/30/23. Cause: Reports were likely sent to the Grants Manager on the due date, and therefore were missed or there was not time to adequately review prior to submission by end of day. Effect: The Commission was not in compliance with submitting reports timely. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend the Commission implement stronger internal monitoring to ensure reports are completed by program managers and submitted to the Grants Manager timely to ensure ample time for internal review and upload to the Federal Agency. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.
