| Date Issued | October 27, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Report Number | OIG-27-002-A |
| Report Type | Audits / Evaluations |
| Description |
Our audit found that while NTIA properly allocated federal funds to eligible entities for the BEAD program, it did not retain the original Average Revenue Per User documentation used in the high-cost allocation methodology and did not fully document allocation decisions. Consequently, NTIA cannot fully demonstrate its analyses, substantiate its methodology, or support allocation decisions. |
