Finding Text
Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds: Noncompliance over Subrecipient Monitoring Condition: During our testing of subrecipient monitoring requirements, we noted that for all of the subrecipients tested, the Organization did not verify whether or not the subrecipient required and, if so, completed an audit. Criteria: 2 CFR 200.332(g) of the Uniform Guidance requires pass-through entities to verify that subrecipients are audited as required by subpart F of 2 CFR 200. Cause: The exception was due to a breakdown in the Organization’s procedures to ensure that all subrecipient monitoring procedures are in accordance with Uniform Guidance. Effect: There is an increased risk that noncompliance at the subrecipient level could occur and remain undetected by the Organization. Improper subrecipient monitoring procedures can also result in actions taken by oversight agencies which could impact future funding. Context: The population subject to subrecipient monitoring requirements included 69 subrecipients. The sample size of seven subrecipients was determined. Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization implement procedures that include monitoring that subrecipients needing an audit meet the requirement. Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding.
