Finding Text

FINDING 2024-005 Significant Deficiency in Internal Controls over Compliance and Noncompliance - Procurement, Suspension and Debarment Federal Agency: Department of Treasury Pass through Grantor: Multiple Federal Program(s): COVID-19 - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Assistance Listing Number(s): 21.027 Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR 200.320 Procurement methods paragraph (b), formal procurement methods are required when the value of the procurement transaction under a federal award exceeds the simplified acquisition threshold of the recipient or subrecipient. Additionally, 2 CFR 200.214 outlines the suspension and debarment requirements for non-federal entities receiving federal funds. It mandates that these entities must not engage in "covered transactions" with individuals or organizations that are suspended, debarred, or otherwise excluded from participating in federal programs. Condition/Context: For one vendor, based on the services to be provided, management was required to issue a public notice solicitation in accordance with the required 2 CFR 200 regulations; however, such a notice was not solicited. Additionally, management did not perform a suspension and debarment check prior to work performed with the vendor. Cause: Due to the infrequency of entering into contracts above the simplified acquisition threshold, management was in the process of formally adopting a procurement policy and did not formalize the steps that would have included the procurement policy of the simplified acquisition threshold and formalize suspension and department checks. Effect: Grant funded contracts could be awarded to vendors that are less cost effective and suspended/debarred, which would be in violation of federal regulations and may result in the early termination of the grant award, non-reimbursement of grant funding, or cessation of future funding. Questioned Costs: None. Recommendation: Management should implement a formal policy outlining the procurement threshold and the requirement of a Suspension and debarment check in accordance with 2 CFR.200 requirements. Repeat Finding: No. Views of Responsible Officials: See Corrective Action Plan.
