Text of Recommendation | Direct MSU to strengthen its policies and procedures surrounding the review of expense reports to require reviewers to verify that travelers have supported all costs claimed as allowable per federal and NSF regulations before charging the costs to NSF awards. Updated policies should ensure that travelers: • Provide itemized receipts when booking travel through travel agencies. • Support all lodging costs claimed with documentation that includes an agreed-upon rate (such as a hotel receipt or a formal lease agreement). |
