2024-001 – Lack of Subrecipient Monitoring Activities Finding Type. Immaterial Noncompliance/Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance (Subrecipient Monitoring). Program. Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds; U.S. Department of Treasury; ALN 21.027, All Awards. Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. Six subrecipients were selected for testing during the audit procedures. There was no subrecipient agreement noted for one of the subrecipients selected, therefore the required federal award information was not properly communicated. Additionally, no risk assessment was performed, nor was a monitoring plan within documentation of monitoring activities noted for this subrecipient. For the remaining five subrecipients selected for testing, the required federal award information was not properly communicated within the agreements. Lastly, the Organization does not have a procedure requiring the review of subrecipient audits. As a result of this condition, the Organization did not fully comply with the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend that management become familiar with the subrecipient monitoring requirements and draft a policy and procedures that provide reasonable assurance that future subrecipient arrangements will be in compliance with the Uniform Guidance. Corrective Action. In an effort for LEAP to become more familiar with the subrecipient monitoring requirements and drafting policy and procedures that provide assurance that future subrecipient arrangements will be in full compliance with the Uniform Guidance federal regulations, LEAP will be modifying its Grants Management SOP to more explicitly detail expectations and procedural steps to meet the requirements of Uniform Guidance. Further, LEAP’s leadership will be holding an internal training for all management team members to discuss this revamped set of policies, go through case study exercises and question and answer session to make sure that all those managing grants or the employees that manage grants have a full understanding of what is expected of them, and their role in various management and oversight processes for the organization.
