The objective of the audit was to perform a comprehensive analysis of the history and function of the AbilityOne Program Fee, and to determine whether effective and transparent criteria exists with the AbilityOne Program Fee. CLA concluded that the Commission did not provide effective and transparent criteria related to the AbilityOne Program Fee.

The audit resulted in an adverse opinion due to significant departures from generally accounting principles and federal reporting requirements, including material misstatements and omissions in the Commission’s financial statements and footnotes. The misstatementsand omissions were material and pervasive, and included the failure to record accounts payable accrual and accurately record other accrued liabilities, which materially misstated the Commission’s beginning and ending balances, and the omission of uncorrected errors in required footnotes.
