The Ward Burton Wildlife Foundation will implement an enhanced internal process to ensure timely completion and submission of all future audit requirements. This corrective action focuses on improving the management and monitoring of Suralink assignments. Going forward Jacob will be the primary contact and receive notifications whenever a new Suralink task is assigned to ensure visibility and shared accountability. Additionally, a tracking protocol will be implemented whereby any assigned task not completed by Jacob within two weeks of assignment will trigger follow-up review and reassignment or escalation as necessary. This internal control is intended to prevent delays in document submission and ensure consistent progress throughout the audit process. These improvements are designed to ensure that all required documentation is completed and submitted in a timely manner, allowing the Foundation to meet all audit deadlines and complete future audits within the required nine-month reporting window.
