1.1 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

1.2 MISSION AND ORGANIZATION

The DCAA provides audit and financial advisory services to Department of Defense (DoD) and other federal entities responsible for acquisition and contract administration. DCAA operates under the authority, direction, and control of the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller)/Chief Financial Officer. As a key member of the government acquisition team, we are dedicated stewards of taxpayer dollars who deliver high quality contract audits and services to ensure that warfighters get what they need at fair and reasonable prices.

DCAA operates under the authority, direction, and control of the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller)/Chief Financial Officer. The Agency consists of about 4,800 employees at over 300 locations in the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific. DCAA’s organizational structure consists of three geographic regions, a field detachment to conduct classified work, and four-Corporate Auditing Directorates (CAD).

1.3 OBJECTIVES

To obtain contractor support in providing training and understanding of CRIS.

2.0

SCOPE

Training will enable DCAA auditors to understand the software’s inner workings and processes.

Training will educate DCAA auditors to understand how a University utilizes the CRIS software to ensure they are in compliance with the unique requirements in government regulations that establish the criteria for development and submission of indirect rates. Training will enable DCAA audit staff to understand where potential risk exists when a University uses the CRIS software to develop its indirect cost rate proposal.

2.1 TASKS

Explain the software’s processes related to:

· Internal controls.

· Input and output capabilities.

· The basic rules the software operates under.

· How the software processes information from the input through the output reports (the through-put functions).

· Where licensees of the software can potentially modify or alter the software or the information after being entered into CRIS.

· The types of reports and abilities to modify the information included in reports.

· The model used to create CRIS, including data required in order to use the software, and the basic rules used to develop the software,

· How informational inputs are processed through the CRIS system,

· Which components of the CRIS software can be modified or altered by the contractor,

· Internal control points embedded within the software to ensure protection of input information as the information is processed through the software, this would include understanding the types of internal controls embedded (for example, key edits, verification, authorized user restrictions, etc.) and whether any of these controls can be overridden by the contractor or a consultant hired to prepare the submission,

· The process CRIS uses to develop the indirect rate information, including the steps the inputs for indirect pools and allocation bases go through to arrive at the output rates,

· How CRIS processes information related to the University’s Space Survey

· What components are available within CRIS relative to different types of indirect rates

· How can adjustments be made to the data once input into the CRIS software, who can make adjustments to the data, what types of controls are in place to restrict overriding information

· What event logs are available that we can access as an audit trail for modifications that are made to information within the CRIS system

· What types of rights do contractors have with regard to the CRIS software, including any rights to modify or alter the basic rules

· The types of reports available from the CRIS system

· How the use of the CRIS software ensures compliance with relevant federal regulations that establish the criteria for Universities to develop and submit their indirect cost rate proposals, including a thorough understanding of, and substantial experience with, the requirements in the Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200) for development of indirect rates and reporting.
