The Organization is implementing procedures to ensure timely preparation of audit documentation and earlier engagement of the audit firm so that the Single Audit can be completed within required federal deadlines. A revised internal timeline has been established for closing the fiscal year, preparing federal award schedules, and submitting materials to the auditors. Management will monitor compliance with these deadlines to ensure timely submission of the Single Audit package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse going forward.
