I love finding new data sources, and this one was new to me: The Federal Audit Clearinghouse.

“The Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) is the place to…review federal grant audits.”

It’s maintained by the General Services Administration, a federal government agency.

FAC provides the ability to search using multiple levels of detailed search terms. You can begin with a simple search, such as audits of projects or organizations in Hawaii in any or all years from 2016 through 2025. More complex searches to drill down through different layers of programs and locations are possible.

A simple search for audits of Hawaii agencies and programs in 2024 produced a list of 44 audits, including 17 released in the first two months of 2025.

The site makes it simple to view or download any, or all, of the audits.

I don’t know whether or how I’ll use this site, but knowing it’s there would add a very useful tool when researching lots of issues.

Browse around and feel free to share any interesting finds!
