Management decision deadline — for entities that funded this organization
The FAC accepted this audit on September 30, 2025. Under 2 CFR 200.521(d), a pass-through entity that provided federal funds to this organization for this audit period must issue a management decision on these findings by March 30, 2026 (161 days ago).
What is a management decision? →Finding No. 2024-001: Procurement Policy Program: AL# 59.059 – Congressional Grants Federal Grantor: U.S. Small Business Administration Criteria – Non-Federal entities must maintain documented procurement procedures that conform to applicable Federal statutes and the procurement standards identified in the Uniform Guidance, including thresholds, procurement methods, standards of conduct, and contract provisions. Citation – 2 CFR 200.319 & 2 CFR 200.320 Condition – The Organization has adopted both a grant-specific procurement policy and entity-wide procurement procedures included in its overall financial policy manual. However, neither policy is fully compliant with the federal procurement requirements. The following outlines the specific deficiencies in the policies: 1. Standard of Conduct for Conflicts of Interest (§200.318(c)): The policies do not contain written standards of conduct covering personal and organizational conflicts of interest in procurement. 2. Full and Open Competition (§200.319): While the policy in the financial manual requires three bids for purchases of $20,000 and greater, there is no overarching requirement that all procurements be conducted to provide full and open competition. 3. Procurement Methods (§200.320): The policies do not address all five procurement methods (micro-purchases, small purchases, sealed bids, competitive proposals, noncompetitive proposals). Additionally, micro-purchase and small purchase thresholds are not aligned with Uniform Guidance (the financial manual sets approval thresholds at $250 and $20,000 but does not incorporate the federal $10,000 micro-purchase threshold or $250,000 simplified acquisition threshold) 4. Noncompetitive Proposals (§200.320(f)): The policies do not identify circumstances where noncompetitive (sole-source) procurements are allowable or require documentation of justification Cause – The Organization’s procurement policies were originally designed around internal approval structures. Upon receiving federal funds for the first time in 2024, a grant specific policy was implemented to meet the grant requirements but neither policy was updated to reflect the detailed procurement requirements under Uniform Guidance. Effect – Since the procurement policies are not fully compliant with federal requirements, there is increased risk that procurements made under federal awards may not be conducted in an appropriate manner. If there were additional contracts with federal funds, this could result in potential questioned costs or disallowed expenditures. Questioned Costs – None. The finding is about deficiencies in written policies and procedures (compliance framework), not about an actual procurement transaction that violated the rules.

As stated in the Management Letter issued by SAX regarding the Organizations procurement policy, 2024 was the first year the Organization received federal funding and therefore was not aware of the specific language required by the Uniform Guidance (2 CFR §200.317-.327) needed in the procurement policy. The Organization has worked with SAX to add policies to procurement policies to ensure that any future procurements required by federal funding received will include procedures required under the Uniform Guidance (2 CFR §200.317-.327).
