Recommendation Details
Text of Recommendation
Direct CRA to strengthen its policies and procedures for creating and retaining documentation, including introducing additional controls to help ensure that it appropriately creates and maintains all documentation necessary to support the allowability of meal expenses charged to sponsored programs. These additional controls could include: •Providing additional training regarding requirements for travel and conference documentation, including the itemized detail and justifications required when paying for hosted or group meals, to ensure it only pays for allowable meal expenses. •Requiring travelers to document the business purpose of a group meal—and identify the participant and non-participant portion of the meal—before charging expenses to an NSF award.
