Information on the Federal Program: Federal Agency: United States Department of Transportation Program Name: Federal Transit Cluster AL: 20.507 Federal Award Year: 2023 Federal Agency: United States Department of Transportation Program Name: Formula Grants for Rural Areas AL: 20.509 Federal Award Year: 2023 Criteria: Required by 2 CFR, Part 200 for federally funded programs, when an institution enters into a covered transaction with an entity or individual, an institution must verify that the vendor or employee is not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in federal programs. Generally, a covered transaction is a transaction expected to equal or exceed $25,000 and be funded with federal dollars. This verification may be accomplished by checking the System for Award Management (SAM), formerly the Excluded Parties List System, maintained by the General Services Administration, collecting a certification from the vendor, or by adding a clause or condition to the covered transaction. Condition Found: During our audit, we noted the District did not consistently review the SAM for vendors meeting the covered transaction threshold. Context: Based on our testing, we noted that none of the vendors selected in our testing that were charged to the grant were included in the SAM listing. Although we did note the District has a process to review SAM for vendors during the procurement process and during prior to payment to vendors, this review does not consistently occur. Questioned Costs: None noted Cause and Effect: The District is aware of the requirement to verify vendors against the SAM. Since this process was not performed on all vendors, there was a risk vendors who may be included on the SAM were included in the expenditures for the federal program. Identification as a Repeat Finding, if applicable: N/A Recommendation: We recommend the District implement a process to verify all vendors prior to payment against the SAM. We also recommend the District provide additional training to all individuals involved in the accounts payable and procurement on the importance of the SAM reviews. Views of a Responsible Official and Corrective Action Plan: Management agrees with the finding and the recommendation. See Corrective Action Plan on page 40. Responsible party: Laurie Bowie, (207) 774-7874

The District will implement a routine verification process for vendors paid with Federal funds against the SAM. This will be performed during the initial vendor set up for new vendors with the likelihood they will be paid $25,000 from federal funds and annually for existing vendors. Documentation will be reviewed to support the checks being performed. The District will ensure all individuals involved with accounts payable and procurement will receive training on the process and rationale for SAM reviews periodically.
