Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance and Noncompliance Related to Reporting for the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act. Contact Person: Sheyna Wisdom, Executive Director, AOOS Management Response: AOOS concurs with the finding and acknowledges that internal procedures and oversight were insufficient to ensure timely FFATA subaward reporting. Corrective Action: To address this deficiency, AOOS will update its subaward monitoring controls to ensure full compliance with 2 CFR Part 170. Specifically, AOOS will: • Assign dedicated responsibility to designated staff to file subaward reports in the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act Subaward Reporting System (FSRS) by the end of the month following subaward execution. • Implement a monthly supervisory review to verify FSRS filing submissions and archive confirmation records in the subaward files. • Retroactively submit the missing FY25 FFATA reports into FSRS. 1007 W.
