December 14, 2022 Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs For the Year Ended June 30, 2022 Finding 2022-001 U.S. Department of Education 84.370C- DC Opportunity Scholarship Program Significant Deficiency over Compliance and Internal Control over Procurement and Suspension and Debarment Planned Corrective Action: In response to last year's finding the School did implement more stringent procurement processes which include requiring the completion of a Grants Compliance Checklist prior to any spending on a federal grant. This was completed in the case of this vendor and demonstrated evidence of utilizing the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT) process was provided. However, we underestimated the amount we would spend on the the vendor. In our weekly accounting meeting, the School has implemented a process to monitor its vendors that have exceeded $20,000, to ensure year to data costs do not exceed $25,000. Beginning in September 2021, the School provided individual training to all budget managers which highlights federal and local procurement processes. We have also implemented quarterly meetings with all budget managers to ensure we are aware of upcoming expenses that may exceed the $25K threshold and/or incremental expenses that may exceed $25K with one vendor. Finally, we are proactively bidding out all contracts that exceeded $25K last year. Name of Contact Person: Tiffany Godbout, COO, 202-269-6623, tiffany@aohdc.org Anticipated completion date: The Corrective Action Plan will be implemented no later than January 1, 2023.
