CITY OF l��r �� 1 f C A L I F O R N I A COUNCIL COMMUNICATION AGENDA ITEM Coo 8 AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Execute a Change Order to the Second One -Year Optional Extension to the Professional Services Agreement with the Pun Group, LLP, of Santa Ana, to Add Funds for New Single Audit Requirements (Amount Not -to - Exceed $90,192 for the Fiscal Year 2021-22 audit, $422,156 For the Life of the Contract) MEETING DATE: PREPARED BY: June 1, 2022 Deputy City Manager RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution authorizing City Manager to execute a change order to the optional extension to the professional services agreement with The Pun Group, LLP, of Santa Ana to add funds for new Single Audit requirements in an amount not to exceed $90,192 for the Fiscal Year 2021-22 audit and $422,156 for the life of the contract. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In March 2018, staff issued a Request for Proposal for audit services. The previous auditors, Macias Gini & O'Connell LLP, had worked with the City for 15 years. Based upon the evaluation of the proposals, the panel ranked The Pun Group, LLP as the top firm for the City. Council approved a one-year contract with The Pun Group and gave direction that Council have involvement in the subsequent RFP process. During the Fiscal Year 2017-18 year-end audit, Council approved Amendment No. 1 to the contract to conduct additional review on purchasing procedures outside the scope of the original contract. On February 6, 2019, staff asked Council for direction on procuring future auditing services. The City Council's 4-0 direction to staff was to forgo the RFP process and extend the contract with The Pun Group based on the terms in the initial bid presented by the Pun Group in March of 2018. The Pun Group honored the terms of the initial bid. On February 20, 2019 the City Council approved Amendment No. 2 to the contract to extend the term to include the completion of the Fiscal Year 2019-20 audit. On December 2, 2020, the City Council approved Amendment No. 3 to the contract to extend the term to include the completion of the Fiscal Year 2020-21 audit. Staff notes that during the previous four audits, The Pun Group has performed exceptionally. Its substantial experience was brought to the forefront. The pointed, direct and probing questions asked by The Pun Group are what a City striving for transparency in financial reporting wants in its auditor. For the Fiscal Year 2020-21 audit, Pun Group's staff conducted a largely remote audit without sacrificing its oversight responsibilities. Strategic and limited onsite access was granted to complete work and provide thorough review of certain processes within the City. APPROVED: s, = - (May 18, 202218:01 PDT) Stephen Schwabauer, City Manager Upon completion of the June 30, 2021 audit, the contract with The Pun Group is up for the final optional one year extensions. On February 2, 2022, Council approved utilizing the last of the two one-year extensions of the contract for the Fiscal Year 2021-22 audit. The City's Single Audit Requirements have since changed, and require adding another major program to be audited at an additional cost of $4,000 each. The City now has to include FEMA (Great Plates) and American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) in the Fiscal Year 2021-22 audit. The annual cost for the Fiscal Year 2021-22 audit is $90,192, an overall total Not -to -Exceed $422,156 for the life of the contract. FISCAL IMPACT: Costs for the audit services are included in the City's proposed Fiscal Year 2021/22 budget and the General Fund Long Range Financial Plan. FUNDING AVAILABLE: 10095000-72455.

During our Initial I�lnnning phase of the audit, our nngngement teem, Including the Engagement Partner and Manager will obtain an unelmstanding of the entity and Its anv[ronrnent This Is an essential aspect of performing an audit In nuccrdence with generally accepted auditing standards. In particular, [het understanding establishes a frame of reference within which the auditor pians the audit and exercleee professional judgment about assessing risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and responding to those flake throughout the audit. Wring interim phase of the audit, our Engagsimnf Team will perform a walkthrough of all significant accounting systems, Including processes for financial reporting, revenue recognition and cash recalple, purchasinglaonlract management and cash dlsbursemerds, and payroll and related Ilablllttes, etc. Our auditors will obtain the written policies and procedures, Inqulring occounling pernannel, and document the process In elther a flowchart or narrative summary format.
