We recommend that the Office of the Chief Financial Officer of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission enhance the documentation, monitoring, and enforcement of its controls over the closure of charge card accounts. For purchase cards, the Administrative Officer (AO) or District Resources Manager (DRM) should maintain documentation of all account closures electronically or in hard copy.
EEOC should ensure the existing policy in place is followed and documentation of the process is reviewed by the CFO or their designee on a quarterly basis.
We recommend EEOC management create a control where management reviews, on a sample basis, at least quarterly, the approved PP&E disposals/retirements for conformity to EEOC SOP for OIT Excess Property that states, “When equipment is disposed of, an SF 120, SF 122, or SF 120 copy using GSAXcess, is approved by the EEOC Approving Official, CSD Backup or Property manager, evidenced by their signature and date.” EEOC management should follow-up with Approving Official(s), CSD Backup or Property management who have been found to not adhere to requirements of the SOPs for OIT Excess Property
We recommend EEOC management update its policies and procedures to include all required safeguards and internal controls to be compliant with the Government Charge Card Abuse Prevention Act of 2012. In addition, EEOC should create a monitoring control to review the policy when changes or updates are made to federal law or Office of Management and Budget or General Services Administration guidance
For purchase cards, EEOC management should create a control where management reviews, on a sample basis, purchase cards transactions to ensure all obligating documents and purchase orders are in conformity with EEOC Directives Transmittal Order 360.003, Commercial Purchase Charge Card Program Practical User's Guide.
We recommend EEOC ensure that emailed policy memos are promptly updated in the appropriate EEOC Directives Transmittal Order.
OCFO should revise EEOC Order 360.001 as needed to assist CORs in performing their
duties. Include implementation guidance for contract administration activities, such as
submitting contract modifications.
