Finding 2023-001 A significant deficiency was issued related to procurement and suspension and debarment for the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education training grant agreement. We designed and placed into operation a control to ensure that covered transactions are not made with a debarred or suspended party. Strada Collaborative LLC (Collaborative), where applicable, has a standard addendum included within each vendor agreement in which the counterparty attests to suspension/debarment and such agreement is executed with a vendor before any invoice from that vendor is paid. However, there was one occurrence for which a covered transaction was entered into without the execution of a formal agreement and addendum to obtain the counterparty’s attestation regarding suspension/debarment. To ensure that covered transactions are not made with a debarred or suspended party, we are in the process of implementing control procedures to ensure that invoices payable to a subrecipient or contractor related to federal awards are supported by an executed agreement with the counterparty’s attestation regarding suspension/debarment.For such invoices submitted by Collaborative to the Accounts Payable Department (Strada AP) for payment, a copy of the agreement, including the addendum, that the invoice pertains to must be included in order to be routed for payment. Upon receipt by Strada AP of any such invoices submitted by Collaborative for payment, Strada AP will review to ensure that a copy of the relevant agreement is included with the submission. If such invoice is submitted with a project code or customer code associated with a federal award, Strada AP will verify that the included agreement has an addendum with the partner's signed attestation. If there is not an agreement included in the submission, or if there is not a signed addendum, Strada AP will reject routing the invoice for payment and notify Collaborative. In addition, Collaborative will immediately review the complete population of contractors/subrecipients with 2024 activity on open federal awards to ensure that for all active existing partners Collaborative has obtained an executed agreement with a signed addendum capturing the counterparty's attestation regarding suspension/debarment. Any omissions will be followed up on by the federal award designated project director to obtain the partner's attestation regarding suspension/debarment or to otherwise independently verify that the partner is not debarred or suspended. John Morrical, Senior Auditor, is responsible for this Corrective Action Plan.The control will commence as of June 1, 2024.
