Finding #2020-001 ? Significant Deficiency and Other Noncompliance Applicable federal program: U. S. Department of Justice Passed through Texas CASA Crime Victim Assistance Assistance Listing Number #16.575 Contract Numbers: VOCA-2020-18; VOCA-2021-18 Contract Years: 10/01/19 ? 09/30/20; 10/01/20 ? 09/30/21 Criteria: Procurement ? Procurement for federal expenditures must follow the requirements of the Uniform Guidance ?200.318 and CASA?s procurement policies. CASA?s conflict of interest policies require annual certification by those involved in the procurement process. Condition and context: During our testing of 2 of 3 aggregated annual purchases for goods or services over $10,000, we found one instance where the competitive analysis was last performed in 2016. The 2016 contract for IT services has been renewed annually without CASA undergoing re-procurement procedures. Additionally, two management personnel involved in the procurement process did not provide conflict of interest statements for 2020. Cause: CASA?s policy does not include a requirement that the competitive process be performed prior to renewal of an existing contract. Additionally, management?s controls were not sufficient to ensure that all personnel involved in the procurement process provided annual conflict of interest statements. Effect: Failure to periodically re-perform procurement procedures could result in CASA not obtaining the most advantageous contract for its program with price and other factors considered. Lack of updated conflict of interest statements could result in purchase or a good or service from a related party. Questioned costs: Unknown Recommendation: Management should amend its procurement policy to include an appropriate term for procurement determinations and procedures for re-procurement. Controls over obtaining all annual conflict of interest statements should be strengthened. View of responsible officials: Management agrees with the finding. See Corrective Action Plan.

Finding #2020-001 ? Significant Deficiency and Noncompliance Condition and context: During our testing of 2 of 3 aggregated annual purchases for goods or services over $10,000, we found one instance where the competitive analysis was last performed in 2016. The 2016 contract for IT services has been renewed annually without CASA undergoing re-procurement procedures. Additionally, two management personnel involved in the procurement process did not provide conflict of interest statements for 2020. Recommendation: Management should amend its procurement policy to include an appropriate term for procurement determinations and procedures for re-procurement. Controls over obtaining all annual conflict of interest statements should be strengthened. Planned corrective action: CASA?s procurement policy will be amended by June 30, 2021 to require re-procurement of long-term contracts on an appropriate regular term, and the IT services contract will undergo re-procurement by September 30, 2021. Failing to collect all conflict-of-interest statements is not the norm for CASA and was an oversight caused by the need to respond to unprecedented emergent conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. All conflict-of-interest statements for 2021 have been received. Going forward, management has calendared for all conflict-of-interest statements to be collected by January 31 of each year. Responsible officer: Chief Executive Officer Estimated completion date: September 30, 2021
