MATERIAL WEAKNESS

During our audit, we discovered that management had not implemented an effective system of internal controls over compliance related to the federal award. Specifically, food commodities received under the federal award were not warehoused and tracked in accordance with award terms, and management was unable to produce a listing of participants who received distributions of federal food commodities. Cause: The majority of federal awards received by the Organization are cash reimbursement grants. The food commodities received by the Organization under the federal award program are not usual or routine and, as a result, the internal controls over compliance with federal award programs were not appropriately designed. Effect: Management was unable to substantiate compliance with warehousing requirements. Further, management was unable to determine whether only eligible individuals/households received federal food commodities as allowable under the federal award. Perspective Information: The deficiencies noted appear to be indicative of a systemic issue related to the internal controls over compliance related to noncash federal award programs (e.g., food commodities). Questioned Costs: Unable to be determined. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend the Organization design and implement and effective system of internal controls over compliance for all federal award programs. This system should include consideration for those noncash federal awards that may need to be considered. View of Responsible Officials: The Organization will design and implement a system of effective internal controls over compliance that will take into consideration all federal award program, to include noncash awards.
