Chapter Two -- The On-Site Visit Colorado developed our on-site checklist: On our website at: www. cccs. edu And on handout 17
Chapter Two – The On-Site Visit • New Business Manager • account transaction details of purchases • New Perkins administrator invited to on-site 18
Chapter Two – The On-Site Visit • Account details showed a sewing machine purchase • Only a few, rare programs in Colorado are allowed sewing machines • This school did not have this rare program and neither did other consortium members 19
Chapter Two – The On-Site Visit • Asked to see “source documents” for sewing machine purchase • What do you think it looked like? • And a few days later the Dr. HL Official leaves a message 20
Chapter Three – The Phone Call • A month or so later…… 21
Chapter Four -- The Records • Copies of e-mails, to and from • Review of plans in writing • With IP phone system can save voice messages • Seven years of fiscal records • Seven years of Perkins program files 22
Chapter Four – The Records 23
24
Chapter Five – The District Attorney • Several months later…. . • Investigators do investigate. . . Everything! • Why didn’t we catch this? Have we done enough? Doesn’t this matter to us? 25
The Ending • Still not written – charges have been filed against Dr. H. L. Official for misuse of other funds of the district. 26
What Did We Learn • Always review source documents at an on-site visit • Schools that are always late in completing forms should be visited first • Just monitoring big money is not the answer 27
What Did We Learn • Keep complete records • Save key e-mails • BE HONEST AND FORTHCOMING WITH ANY LAW OFFICERS OR INVESTIGATORS 28
What Did We Learn • Send each consortium member the annual allocation estimate total • Require two signatures for purchases • Beware the extremely nice person • Accounts payable based on official forms – P. O. ’s, Invoices, Policy 29
What Did We Learn • Beware too many cuts at the bureaucratic or administrative level • Don’t try to go it alone • Learn from auditors, lawyers • Money first, save the world second • Accounting classes 30
What Did We Learn Balance toughness with humor and streamlined forms 31
