Project Administration - Audits

Restricted Funds is responsible for the coordination of all grant or contract audits. If a department or Principal Investigator is contacted directly by an auditor (Federal or other), the auditor should be referred to Restricted Funds.

The Controller’s Office is responsible for maintaining and providing to auditors the source documentation supporting payroll, accounts payable and other transactions. However, departments may be called upon by the Controller’s Office to provide additional documentation or explanation as required by auditors.

Charges to grants and contracts that are disallowed as a result of such audits must be removed from the grant or contract onto an account supplied by the department.

All final audit reports on individual grants or contracts will be disseminated by Restricted Funds to the appropriate departments and individuals.
