Finding Text

The terms of the Notice of Grant Award state that the YR2 Annual Programmatic Progress Report (APPR) is to be submitted by February 28, 2021. During our audit, we noted that HIPS failed to file the YR2 APPR by the due date of February 28, 2021. The actual submission date was February 28, 2022.

Corrective Action Plan

HIPS hired additional finance staff, including staff with experience in federal grantmaking, and reorganized the team member responsibilities to ensure all past due filings were completed by February 28, 2022.
