Audit Requirements

Full-Scope Auditing

In addition to arranging and providing for the organizational, financial, and compliance audits required by OMB Circular A-133, direct recipients and subrecipients are encouraged to provide for additional audit coverage, as deemed appropriate.

  • The additional audit coverage to be provided should be determined based on the circumstances surrounding the particular organization, function, program, or activity to be audited; management needs; and available audit capability.
  • As a direct recipient or subrecipient, you can determine the need for additional audit coverage by considering answers to the following questions about the organization that may need the coverage:
  • Are resources managed and used economically and efficiently?
  • Are desired results and objectives achieved effectively?
  • Are the organization’s accounting system and system of internal controls acceptable prior to the receipt of awarding agency funds?
  • Are the organization’s systems and controls adequate to detect fraud, waste, and abuse?
