AI Summary

  • Core Issue: The procurement policy lacks essential elements required by the Uniform Guidance.
  • Impacted Requirements: Missing details on thresholds, procedures for procurement methods, and conflict of interest management.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Update the procurement policy to include all necessary elements as outlined in 2 CFR section 200.318 through 200.326.

Finding Text

Condition: The Organization has a procurement policy; however, the policy does not include all the elements required by the Uniform Guidance (UG). The policy should detail, among other items, thresholds and procedures for each of the five procurement methods, and how conflicts of interest are identified and addressed. Criteria: 2 CFR section 200.318 through 200.326 outlines the procurement standards and the elements that should be included in the Organization?s policy. Cause: Due to time restraints, the Organization has not yet updated its current policy. Effect: The effect is unknown. Recommendation: We recommend the Organization update its procurement policy with all the elements required by the UG.

Corrective Action Plan

Views of Responsible Officials: The Organization is in the process of updated its procurement policy, so it aligns with the requirements set by the UG.
