Questioned Costs: None Context: For the one (1) exception noted, the subaward was reported to FSRS twenty-three (23) days after the due date. The sampling method used was not statistically valid. Transactions Tested Subaward not reported Report not timely Subaward amount incorrect Subaward missing key elements 2 0 1 0 0 Dollar Amount of Tested Transactions Subaward not reported Report not timely Subaward amount incorrect Subaward missing key elements $14,304,982 $0 $1,049,999 $0 $0 Effect: Lack of compliance with timely reporting of subawards awarded or modified could result in loss of funding.

Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the City of San Antonio Department of Human Services incorporate procedures to address tracking of subaward amendments to ensure timely reporting to FSRS. Views of responsible officials: The City agrees with the recommendation. The delay was due to a break in the communication between the responsible division and fiscal regarding final contract execution dates, this resulted in a 23-day delay reporting in FFATA.

Corrective Action Plan Federal Grants Year-Ended September 30, 2022 Finding #2022-001 Type of Finding: Noncompliance and Significant Deficiency Responsible Person Melody Woolsey, Director Department of Human Services Implementation Date September 30, 2023 Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions The Department of Human Services (DHS) will strengthen the process in timely FFATA reporting by implementing a shared tracking system with the responsible division(s) who originates a request for a contract/agreement. Division staff will include a checklist detailing the required documents needed for contract execution, along with a revised routing slip. The revised routing slip will include notifications to all responsible stakeholders when a contract/agreement is executed. Once a contract is executed the division owner will update the shared tracking system within 2 business days of receipt to include required fields and important dates. The final step of the routing slip is to notify fiscal staff once updates are made in the shared tracking system. Fiscal staff will review the shared tracking system on the 1st and 15th of each period/month and report required data to Central Finance within the reporting deadline. In the interim of implementing the shared tracking system, DHS will use an excel spreadsheet to update all stakeholders once contracts are executed.

Reporting

Quarterly performance reports are prepared and reviewed by the same person. Context: 2 of 2 quarterly performance reports tested were prepared and reviewed by the same person. Cause: The review and preparation of the performance reports by the same person was due to a vacancy in the department, which was filled in November 2021. Effect: Lack of segregation of duties over reporting could result in errors in reporting of data and information for the Community Development Block Grant program to the grantor. Questioned Costs: None Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the City of San Antonio Neighborhood and Housing Services Department incorporate procedures to address segregation of duties, such as vacancy in supervisor level position, that may impact the timely review and processing of financial and performance reports due to the grantor. Views of responsible officials: The City agrees with the recommendation.

Finding #2021-001 Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency Responsible Person Veronica R. Soto, Director Neighborhood and Housing Services Implementation Date November 15, 2021 Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions Previous staff vacancies at Neighborhood and Housing Services Department (NHSD) which may have led to a compression of duties regarding the Quarterly Performance Reports (QPR) have been resolved. To ensure duties remain segregated should any staff vacancies occur in the future, the following procedures have been implemented: NHSD?s Contracts Unit prepares the quarterly DRGR report for funded projects while the Fiscal Unit prepares the expenditure reports and performs a reconciliation between the federal system and SAP. These reports are provided to the Grants Manager for review prior to entry of the quarterly performance report in the DRGR system. Once entered, but prior to submission, a draft QPR will be reviewed by either the Grants Administrator or Deputy Director.

Special Tests & Provisions

For eight (8) of the twenty-one (21) payments to subrecipients judgmentally selected for testing, the City did not pay the subrecipient within thirty (30) days of receiving the subrecipient?s complete payment request. Context: For the eight (8) exceptions noted, the number of days which exceeded the thirty-day payment to subrecipient timeline ranged from 36 to 74 days. Cause: Delays were experienced during the review, approval, and payment process as a result of limited staff availability due to turnover, vacancies, and/or extended leave. Effect: Lack of compliance over payments to subrecipients could result in reduction in Emergency Solutions Grants Program funding allocated to the City. Questioned Costs: None Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the City of San Antonio Department of Human Services incorporate procedures to address unforeseen situations such as limited resources that may impact the timely review and processing of payments to subrecipients within the thirty-day requirement. Views of responsible officials: The City agrees with the recommendation. Delays were experienced because of limited staff availability due to extended leave, turnover, and vacancies exacerbated by an organizational hiring freeze. Fiscal and Contract Administration vacancies ranged from 20% to 45% over the period of the review.

Finding #2021-002 Type of Finding: Noncompliance and Significant Deficiency Responsible Person Melody Woolsey, Director Department of Human Services Implementation Date September 30, 2022 Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions The Department of Human Services (DHS) will strengthen the processing time to address the thirty-day requirement ensuring that it incorporates an appropriate timeline to account for the multiple levels of review. DHS will further implement a supervisory report to identify pending approvals not meeting timelines and, where needed, redirect invoices to available staff to ensure grant compliance. DHS will implement an ?Acceptance Date? to address incomplete invoices submitted by contractor agencies, which will be rejected for agency review, revision, and resubmission. DHS will send weekly reports to Accounts Payable to ensure invoices that have been completed by the department and pending payment are prioritized for processing. DHS will further work with Human Resources (HR) to expedite hiring of temporary staffing for identified critical positions while it works with Finance and HR to review the organization structure of the fiscal and contract staffing within the department against increased operational needs to determine if changes in staffing are needed.
