Finding Text

During the course of our audit, we identified that there was no formal procurement policy in place at VOA until May 22, 2024. Additionally there was no formal suspension and debarment and subrecipient policies in place at VOA. This finding is significant because without these policies there is no clear guidance or framework, which increases the risk of non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, as well as the risk of fraud, waste, and abuse.
