All,
FISCAL YEAR-ENDING ESTIMATES
Once again this year, we are directing that progress estimates be prepared on
all
projects for the period ending June 30, 2023.
That date falls on a
Friday
this
year.
Please insure that work performed up to and including June 30th is documented and
authorized before the estimates are generated. Please keep in mind that the
estimate does not have to be generated on June 30 ----- you just need to
make sure
that it is generated for the period ending June 30, 2023. (Don’t
use June 29.
Don’t use July 1. It must be June 30.)
This policy has been established so that the Controller Division ---- and others ---- can
more accurately identify in which fiscal year work was performed on a project and
when it became an obligation for the state (or others) to pay. Additionally, for some
other accounting reasons, the Controller Division may have good reason to separate
project costs from one fiscal year to another.
In simple terms, all work performed up to and including
Friday, June 30, 2023
should appear on an estimate which is created for the period ending June 30, 2022.
This June 30th estimate should be prepared regardless of your established schedule
for generating estimates.
Also, I ask that you create an estimate for the period ending June 30th
even if there
is little or no work to document. It just makes it easier for everyone
to monitor that
we've got a snapshot of all the projects at the end of the fiscal year --- and it also
leaves no question for us about whether or not the estimate just wasn’t necessary or
just wasn’t generated.
Create an estimate for the period ending June 30 on
every project.
Exceptions would be projects that haven’t started and projects for
which the “FINL” estimate has been generated.
This request applies to all projects --- State or LPA --- in our SiteManager and
AASHTOware Project systems.
PROGRESS ESTIMATE PAYMENTS BEFORE AND AFTER JULY 1
Progress estimates processed and received by the Controller by
Friday, June 16
should be paid during this fiscal year. Progress estimates received
after June 16
will
probably not be paid until at least
July 5, 2023.
