Management decision deadline — for entities that funded this organization
The FAC accepted this audit on April 4, 2023. 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 October 4, 2023 (1054 days ago).
What is a management decision? →During the year under audit, DCVLP did not document and retain evidence of the screening process for all payments made with Federal funds. Our audit procedures consisted of substantive testwork over a sample of expenditures paid during the year that were selected based on a representative sample of the population. The condition appeared to be systemic in nature. Context: Payments were made throughout the year by DCVLP with no evidence of the screening process performed. Effect: Failure to document the screening of potential vendors, suppliers, employees or other on contracted federal transactions against the suspended and debarred list leaves no evidence that the screenings were performed and no evidence that the party was not suspended or debarred. This increases the possibility that U.S. Government funds may inadvertently be provided to individuals or organizations deemed to be excluded parties by the U.S. Government. Cause: DCVLP did not have policies and procedures in place throughout the year to ensure the screening process was performed and appropriately documented. Questioned Costs: Undetermined. Repeat Finding: This is not a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend management of DCVLP develop a policy to address the screening process for all contracted and non-contracted transactions including, but not limited to, with vendors, suppliers, and employees. Furthermore, we recommend that management communicate these policies and procedures to employees of the organization, and it should stress the importance of documenting compliance with the ?Suspension and Debarment? provisions. Finally, the screening of potential vendors and suppliers should be completed and documented prior to entering into the transactions or making payments. Anticipated Completion Date: Brian Yourish (Director of Operations) and Sara B. Tennen (Executive Director) Responsible Official: April 3, 2023

Views of Responsible Officials: Beginning immediately, DCVLP is documenting and retaining evidence of the screening process for all payments made with Federal funds to ensure that DCVLP is not conducting business with excluded parties (as defined by the U.S. Government). The screening process is conducted via searches on the System for Award Management (SAM): https:sam.gov/search. Documentation of the screening process is being saved in DCVLP?s secure, cloud-based file storage system and on the documents tab for each vendor in DCVLP?s secure, cloudbased bill payment system. The Director of Operations will also maintain a spreadsheet of all DCVLP vendors with a column noting the date of the most recent SAM check. DCVLP management will also be working with The Ijaz Group accounting firm and DCVLP?s Finance Committee to update DCVLP?s Accounting Manual to ensure that policies are in place and DCVLP is screening all vendors going forward.
