AI Summary

  • Recommended Follow-Up: Management is aware and preparing for the 2023 audit; ensure they address outstanding items to avoid repeat findings.

Finding Text

I NOTED THAT THE NVK DID NOT SUBMIT THEIR AUDIT WITHIN THE REQUIRED 9 MONTH TIMEFRAME OF YEAR END. PER 2CFR SECTION 200.512, NVK MUST SUBMIT THEIR AUDIT WITHIN 9 MONTHS OF THEIR FISCAL YEAR END. NO QUESTIONED COSTS. THE NVK WAS STILL ADDRESSING COVID RELATED DELAYS. MANAGEMENT IS AWARE OF THE REQUIREMENT AND HAS STARTED TO PREPARE FOR THE 2023 AUDIT IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE SUBMITTED TIMELY. IN ADDITION, THE 2022 AUDIT WAS VERY CLOSE TO BEING SUBMITTED WITHIN 9 MONTHS, THERE WERE JUST A FEW OUTSTANDING ITEMS WHICH PREVENTED TIMELY SUBMISSION. THIS WAS A REPEAT FINDING. THIS FINDING WAS PREVIOUSLY REPORTED AS FINDING 2021-004.

Corrective Action Plan

MANAGEMENT HAS STARTED WORK ON THEIR 2023 AUDIT PREPARATION AND WILL ENSURE THAT IT IS SUBMITTED TIMELY.
