Grants & funds managers lay out RSA reporting, asset tracking and systems modernization
Summary
Grants & funds management staff told the committee they handle RSA financial reports, payroll oversight for roughly 1,100 employees, tracking of about 4,900 assets, and preparations for statewide accounting system modernization (S/4 Hana and Workiva integration).
Sabrina Walker summarized the duties of the grants and funds management team, including federal reporting, payroll oversight and fixed‑asset accounting.
Walker said GFM prepares RSA‑required reports (RSA 17 financial reports and RSA 9/11 consumer data reports), supports payroll accounting for approximately 1,100 employees, and tracks roughly 4,900 agency assets (agency tracks items down to $2,500 even though state threshold is $5,000). She also described the agency’s preparations for state accounting modernization (S/4 Hana) and the state auditor’s Workiva system for closing packages.
Walker emphasized the department’s goal of receiving no audit findings and described steps to update policies and procedures to align with uniform guidance. She said GFM provides internal controls to ensure expenditures stay within grant performance periods and that some purchases require RSA prior approval.
Why it matters: The GFM briefing described the regulatory and technical infrastructure that supports federal compliance and audit readiness, and identified modernization projects that may change how the agency records and reports fiscal activity.
