  3. Rafael Reif, Provost Budget Planning – Fiscal Year 2010 and Beyond

  4. Outline Short term: • Fiscal 2010 Pro Forma General Budget Longer term: • 2011-2012 Budget/Task Force Update

  5. Reduce General Institute Budget (GIB) expenses by $100-$150m by FY12 (i.e., in three years) Budget Planning Process Objective

  6. Identifying a Long-term Budget Planning Target Projected End-of-Year GIB Deficits as a Function of Endowment Performance • Basic Model Assumptions • Annual non-investment revenue growth: • Tuition = 4.25% • Gifts to GIB = 0% • Indirect Research = 0% • Endowment unit growth (via gifts) = 1% • Annual expense growth: • Average annual growth = 4% (Deficit) / Surplus $M

  7. Near term (FY09 and FY10) objectives Achieve a budget reduction of $50m in FY10 Long term (FY11 and beyond) objectives Reach long-term budget targets ($100m-$150m) assisted by an Institute-wide Task Force effort Budget Planning Work Underway

  8. Goal: Develop a Fiscal 2010 budget that achieves a $50m expense reduction General Revenue Parameters: Tuition increase: 3.8% Flat endowment payout (FY09 to FY10) Maintain undergraduate financial aid policies and tuition subsidy for graduate student research assistants General Expense Parameters: No new recurring funds Modest merit pool increases Significant reductions in startup and retention funds Fiscal 2010 Budget Overview

  9. Objective for FY11 and beyond: Reach long-term budget targets ($100m-$150m) assisted by an Institute-wide Task Force effort Guiding principles for the Task Force: Maintain commitment to: MIT's mission: Advance knowledge and educate students MIT's unified structure: One faculty, one staff and one student population, operating under common sets of policies and procedures Cutting edge research and to closely integrate teaching with research Need-blind admissions and need-based financial aid Diversity Working and communicating with the entire MIT community Budget Planning Work Update

  10. Israel Ruiz, Vice President for Finance Member of Task Force Coordinating Team Progress of the Institute-wide Planning Task Force

  11. Task Force Charge Review and analyze current practices and expenditures that support the Institute’s mission and operations. Identify • Activities or operations closely aligned with MIT’s core mission • Opportunities for efficiency and cost reduction as well as costs/benefits of proposed operational changes • Opportunities to promote environmental impact and sustainability • Paths to implementation that preserve MIT's mission, values, and culture

  12. Task Force Structure

  13. Process: Phase 1 February - May 2009 • Each Working Group collects community input • Each Working Group develops prioritized list of opportunities • Deliverable of each Working Group: List of opportunities with estimated impacts June 2009 • Synthesize inputs from all Working Groups • Task Force presents report to Leadership Team • Receive feedback

  14. Process: Phase 2 July - September 2009 • Each Working Group receives feedback on opportunities list • Working Groups further refine list based on feedback • Highlight critical implementation issues • Refine estimates of impact • Deliverable of each Working Group: Report of opportunities with estimated impacts October 2009 • Synthesize inputs from all Working Groups • Task Force presents report to Leadership Team • Receive feedback

  15. Emerging Themes Site Engagement • Over 2,000 unique visitors • Approx. 70,000 page views • Average visitor views 14 pages • Average visit: 7 min., 18 sec. Idea Bank Postings • 1063 entries as of April 6, 2009 • 53% comments, 47% ideas

  16. Emerging Theme: Paperless Solutions • Three categories of opportunities: • 1. Automation of paper-based systems • Opportunities in every process area • Student systems, HR and payroll processes, accounts payable, travel, events management, facilities, research administration, faculty affairs • 2. Stop printing! • Opt-in/ opt-out • Push capabilities, individuals select from a menu of subscriptions • 3. Electronic document management systems • Couple with strategies to reduce paper retention

  17. Overarching Themes Optimize Share Stop Fewer Leverage Simplify Automate Reduce

  26. Ray and Maria Stata Center Lighting upgrades • Lamps, ballasts, and fixtures • To increase energy efficiency Cost: $520,000 Payback: 3.3 years

  27. The Dreyfus Building Fume Hood Face Velocity Reduction: • Recalibration of fume hoods to reduce energy consumption. Cost: $430,000 Payback: 2.65 years

  28. Stratton Student Center Lighting upgrades • Lamps, ballasts, and fixtures to increase energy efficiency. Cost: $69,000 Payback: 2.8 years

  29. NSTAR Rebates Project costs incorporate NSTAR estimate for utility rebate • Stata Center: $100,000 • Stratton Student Center: $16,000 • Dreyfus Building • Project is a custom measure and thus will need a unique analysis by NSTAR to determine potential rebate.

Down • Up to $800,000 can be saved annually if we used power management features on our 20,000 MIT personal computers • Shut the Sash • Lab fume hoods use more energy than 2 single family homes! MIT has over 1,000 • Awareness program demonstrated sash height reductions of over 25%. $1,000,000/yr opportunity if adopted widely across campus • Resolve to Revolve • On average 8x as much air is exchanged when a swing door is opened vs. a revolving door: if all used revolving doors at E25: $7,500 saved
