Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance and Other Matters Criteria:
2 CFR Part 200 Suspension and debarment restricts making Federal awards, subawards, and contracts with certain parties that are debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from receiving or participating in Federal awards. Both recipients and subrecipients are subject to the nonprocurement debarment and suspension regulations.
Condition:
During our testing, we noted a lack of adherence to the suspension and debarment regulations. Specifically, there was no verification process in place to ensure that parties involved in Federal awards, subawards, and contracts were not debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from participating in Federal awards.
