What changes have occurred in the TIF for FY06/07?
As announced in the letter of April 19, 2006, to the deans from EVC and Provost Daniel Neuman (www.ucla.edu/evc/archive/060419-infrastructure.html), the campus has pursued a change concerning the recharge methodology for the Technology Infrastructure Fee (TIF) that is scheduled for implementation on July 1, 2006. To summarize, based on campus review and approval processes, the campus will convert from a TIF based on the number of phone lines to one based on the number of faculty, staff and student FTE employees, to be calculated at the end of each payroll period. The TIF rate has been established at $39 per FTE per month, based on the components of the POSSSE-approved FY 06/07 pricing model. The transition from line- to FTE-based TIF was also announced in last year’s memo of June 27, 2005, concerning rate changes for FY05/06 (http://www.cts.ucla.edu/rates-billing.htm).
