A FEDERAL REPORT FOUND HUGE DIFFERENCES IN HOW STATES AND LOCALITIES COLLECTED
AND SHARED DATA. BETTER COLLABORATION COULD HELP PREVENT MONEY GOING UNACCOUNTED
FOR.

Springfield, Massachusetts, received more than $1.8 billion in pandemic relief
money from 10 federal agencies. The city spent the funds providing a variety of
services, but how much it spent on those services is sometimes a little hard to
determine.

That’s because keeping track of how that money was spent is extremely difficult
due in part to the problems that state and local agencies have in collecting and
analyzing data, as well as the technological limitations associated with their
databases, according to a report by the federal Pandemic Response Accountability
Committee.

Making things particularly complex is the “dizzying array of recipients and
programs and allocation mechanisms,” said Lisa Reijula, PRAC’s associate
director of outreach and engagement.

The panel of inspectors general analyzed six randomly selected communities: two
cities, two rural counties and two Tribal areas, which received approximately
$2.65 billion in federal relief money during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

They noted that keeping track of money flows got especially complex when state
governments disbursed federal grants to subrecipients, like local governments or
small businesses, as those subrecipients are not required to report their
activity to the federal government. 

“There's a lot we do know,” Reijula said, “but there's quite a bit that we
don't.”

When the group drilled down into databases kept by federal, state and local
agencies, it found a lot of inconsistencies and technological limitations. That
included databases that, according to the report, “did not capture payments from
recipients to individuals; could not generate reports as of a specified date
requested by an [Office of Inspector General]; did not include data fields to
allow for coding recipients as receiving pandemic funds; or that contained
duplicates due to data entry errors.”

Reijula said these are all long-standing issues when it comes to the interaction
of data between the various levels of government, “but the scale and the scope
of the pandemic funding really exacerbated it and made the consequences more
urgent.”

One example PRAC found of the poor interoperability between state, local and
federal data was the absence of a system to keep track of how local housing
agencies spent funds from the Tenant-Based Rental Assistance Program. As a
result, the total spend for the initiative was listed as “Unknown” by the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Office of the Inspector General.

State and local leaders have themselves acknowledged the difficulty of
collecting, sharing and analyzing data, even among their own agencies. Maryland
Chief Data Officer Pat McLoughlin said during a panel discussion earlier this
year that there is a lot of “fear” surrounding the use and sharing of data.

Reijula said she hopes that the PRAC findings, as well as other reports to
follow later this year, help encourage greater collaboration between all three
levels of government. PRAC will especially look to state-level auditors for
help, as “they have a much closer view” of “how things are unfolding on the
ground, how money is being spent, what are the challenges that they're running

PRAC is also holding various meetings and working groups where state officials
can share the lessons they have learned from the experience and impart best
practices to their counterparts. The group has a state auditor-in-residence
program to allow state and local leaders to further share ideas and experiences
with others. “Hopefully,” Reijula said, “everyone isn't reinventing the wheel.”

advertising.

Social media cookies are set by a range of social media services that we have
