Budget 1xbet sports betting redesign update
Dear faculty and staff,
In a November letter to campus, I announced work was beginning on a major strategic priority for our university — modernizing our historic budget 1xbet sports betting . I want to update you on some of the work that has taken place since November and share an extended project timeline.
Initial work on the new budget 1xbet sports betting began prior to winter break with meetings of the Core Executive Team and Steering Committee. Early this year, shortly after coming back from the holidays, seven Institutional Cost Pool Teams were appointed and went to work.

We also refined our goals for a new 1xbet sports betting to be:
- Encourage enrollment growth
- Energize innovation
- Incentivize and align with 2025 plans
- Provide greater financial accountability
- Preserve 1xbet sports betting 's land-grant mission
- Unlock the historical incremental 1xbet sports betting
- Provide greater transparency
As we move away from a centralized incremental budget 1xbet sports betting , we are moving toward a hybrid Responsibility Centered Management, or RCM, 1xbet sports betting . In an RCM budget 1xbet sports betting , revenue-generating units own the revenue they generate and are also responsible for the costs they incur.
As we move to a more decentralized 1xbet sports betting , our work in the coming months will focus on creating a revenue-centered budgeting process that fits K-State. No two university budget models are alike. We will be determining where on the continuum between a fully centralized and fully decentralized budget process our new 1xbet sports betting should fall.
One key to establishing an RCM 1xbet sports betting is determining institutional cost pools and the drivers to use for allocating costs to institutional cost pools. The institutional cost pools are:
- Library
- Academic administration
- General administration
- Research support
- Utilities and facilities services
- Student services
- Information technology
These cost pools may be combined into fewer pools as we continue to design the 1xbet sports betting . The seven cost pool teams are charged to recommend the cost drivers for distributing institutional costs and to identify additional questions, issues, policies, and procedures that we need to consider as cost allocation formulas are defined. I thank the team members for their willingness to undertake this important work this spring.
We are in the discovery phase of our redesign effort, already learning from the experiences of other universities. Some members of the Steering Committee recently visited Iowa State 1xbet sports betting with several more visits planned in the coming weeks to gather information about what worked well and what lessons we can learn from others who have been through this type of change.
It has become clear that designing and implementing a new 1xbet sports betting for next fiscal year is not realistic. Our focus needs to be on building a strategic budget 1xbet sports betting for K-State's future, not for next year's budget. There are many questions that will need to be answered as we undertake this complex effort. We need to work together to lay a strong foundation for such a major change and take the time to do it well. For that reason, we have revised the project timeline. We plan to have the budget 1xbet sports betting redesign completed by July 2018 and will run a learning year during FY 19, with implementation in FY 20. This will allow us to understand the impacts of the new 1xbet sports betting and adjust as necessary prior to full implementation.
Vice President Dorhout also has been exploring a change in the Facilities and Administrative costs allocation process. Several questions have been raised as to how that effort integrates with the 1xbet sports betting modernization effort. We need to better understand that impact. I have asked Dr. Dorhout to run a learning year as well in FY 19 so we can understand the impact of those proposed changes and how they align with the new budget 1xbet sports betting .
The work we have ahead of us will not be easy, but if we take the time to be thoughtful, intentional, and work together, we can create a new budget 1xbet sports betting that will be of long-term benefit to Kansas State University.

Sincerely,
