Financial Integrity Mechanisms Sample Clauses

Financial Integrity Mechanisms. The Finance Manager is responsible for conducting the full range of technical and fiscal activities required to prepare, submit and manage grant proposals, contracts, procurement and grants accounting. AHCD has been successful in receiving funding through several sequential federal grants. Systems are in place to assure separate accounting and bookkeeping for each grant. When a federal grant is awarded, it is assigned a separate state WBS element number, separate cost center, separate fund code and separate fund center for tracking purposes. AHCD operating expenses (salaries, supplies, etc.) and contracts are assigned to a cost center and a specific grant. The Finance Manager, under supervision of the AHCD Deputy Commissioner, must authorize expenditures internally for items such as purchasing, and externally such as for payment on a contract, before it is submitted to the AID Accounting Division for payment. She verifies the deliverable was received and provides a signatory on the invoice submitted for payment, noting which cost center or grant the invoice is to be paid from and which line item the invoice is to be paid from. The invoice is forwarded to AID Accounting Division which pays the vendor. The AID Accounting Division records amounts by grant electronically and gives a copy of the record to the Finance Manager at the end of the month. The Finance Manager keeps a separate accounting ledger in Excel format to ensure proper checks and balances with the internal AID Accounting Division, and compares the submitted monthly reconciliation report with the internal grant budget to ensure the expenditures were deducted from the correct accounts according to federal and state policy. Any discrepancies between AID Accounting and AHCD are reconciled. The Finance Manager has established additional policies and procedures to monitor the expenditure of travel funds; procedures that insure before any travel arrangements are made using grant funds, the travel is necessary to the development of grant activities. A thorough, independent audit by the state Division of Legislative Audit is conducted once per year to ensure financial integrity of the AID. These audits meet generally accepted government auditing standards, and reports are presented to a state legislative committee.
