"NJ Coast Audit of the Section's 2022 activity concluded today.  Please note this audit began in May 2022.

Based on the conclusion of the audit, 4 Chapters who met the Section's 2023 Rebate criteria, were given their $200 rebate and $75 Bonus if they qualified.  Two of these chapters WIE ($275) and Computers ($275), Kit is current chair.
 
Some of the issues encountered during the audit have required some procedural changes.  All chapters are being informed.
eNotice just sent requesting 2024 Budget Proposals siting newly developed guidelines [see eNotice email below].
 
Issues encountered with the audit include but are not limited to:
  • Auditor in a different time zone
  • Some dates listed Day/Month/Year not Month/Day/Year
  • Receipts not readily at hand - some receipts needed to be requested directly from the vendor
  • Receipts not in any order or matching an expense item
  • Some expenses did not have a clear understanding as to "reason" for expense
  • Some expenses did not have an "approval" authorization allowing for expense
The new procedures we are implementing will ensure FULL and TRANSPARENT accountability.  Each chapter or entity has been assigned a shared Google drive where all accounting will be housed for easy access by the section leadership.  Each chapter or entity will be granted access only to their space.  We believe these steps will make us "audit-ready" for the next audit.  Any and all funding from the section will require these new procedures to be followed.
 
Each 2023 Budget commitments will be addresses after the Sections' Congress meeting is over.   
Any additional requests made to us will be addressed after 2023 commitments are satisfied.  
  
To recap: Audit just completed; New Guidelines; 2024 Budget Request; and $200 Rebates sent.
We have made great strides in a short time, meeting >weekly throughout these summer months.
 
Thanks,
Filomena Citarella
IEEE NJ Coast Section Chair
