Contact Persons Responsible: Primary – Anthonia Ibe, CFO In Absence (Alternative): – Jesus Infante, CAO Management acknowledges this finding and has developed a corrective action plan to strengthen the underlying control, assign clear ownership, and ensure timely implementation. The Agency is developing a time-tracking and documentation system to capture the actual time spent by allocable staff on federal programs, ensuring that charges to federal awards reflect the actual work performed in compliance with 2 CFR Part 200.403. Concurrently, HR is implementing a standardized pay rate approval and documentation process to ensure all approved salaries are formally recorded and retained by the human resources department. As an interim measure, manual time attestation will be in place by August 31, 2026, while the longer-term system is finalized. The CFO and CAO will work jointly to implement and monitor corrective actions in cross-functional areas, including timekeeping, payroll documentation, record retention, lease tracking, IT access controls, vendor onboarding, procurement documentation, and personnel training. This shared structure is intended to ensure that policy revisions are supported by clear workflows, staff training, documentation standards, and periodic compliance review. By October 31, 2026, the Agency will complete communication and training related to payroll approval controls.
