Organization overview and procurement intelligence available on paid plans.
The government authority in Missouri seeks a vendor to provide internal audit services for its Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. The selected provider will conduct a comprehensive risk assessment with CDBG leadership to inform audit activities across all years of the plan.
The scope includes monitoring, evaluating, and assessing risks and internal controls within the state agency’s programs, and documenting all findings. Regular testing of internal controls is required to identify misalignments, with recommendations for improvements to program management, including updates to policies and procedures to ensure compliance and prevent future breaches.
An audit report cadence will be established, featuring recommendations and corrective actions, communicated to state agency leadership to oversee performance management of CDBG programs. This will begin with weekly meetings and may adjust as agreed by both parties. Additionally, the vendor is expected to develop an annual report confirming their role in detecting fraud, waste, and abuse.
