Corrective Action Plan

Recommendation: The City should adopt policies and procedures and improve controls necessary to ensure there is evidence of processes for inspection of suspended or debarred vendors. Action Taken: Management has agreed with this deficiency and has taken several steps to ensure processes are in place to prevent payments to vendors who are suspended or debarred vendors. In FYE 2024, the City implemented a workflow check for debarment in the procurement procedures. Additional steps were taken in FY 2025 to add debarment language to contracts and invoices, and to obtain certification statements from vendors. Work continues on a draft of a grants policy and procedures document expected to be formalized and adopted in 2025.
