FW: Announcement of the FY18 Laboratory and Core Facility Equipment program
by Shakouri, Ali 09 Oct '17

09 Oct '17

Dear Colleagues, Please see below the announcement for internal university funds FY18 Laboratory and Core Facility Equipment program: http://www.purdue.edu/research/funding-and-grant-writing/funding/lab-progra… For small equipment (<100K) the deadline for proposal is on Nov. 6 and for large equipment (100K-1M), the deadline is on January 26. The latter requires cost share (1/3) and endorsement by associate Deans. Both funds need to be spent by May 31st. Check the PI eligibility and other details on the website. Please let me know if there is anything I could do to help. For large equipment that will be installed at Birck, we will do our best to provide costshare, but it is important to involve appropriate associate deans for research early on. One of the agenda items for the Birck faculty meeting in December will be to discuss about equipment costshare priorities so send me any ideas by end of November. Best regards, Ali From: Engfaculty-list [mailto:engfaculty-list-bounces@ecn.purdue.edu] On Behalf Of Meluch, Paula J Sent: Monday, October 09, 2017 9:09 AM To: Engineering Faculty (engfaculty-list(a)ecn.purdue.edu) <engfaculty-list(a)ecn.purdue.edu> Subject: Announcement of the FY18 Laboratory and Core Facility Equipment program Sent on behalf of Dr. Melba Crawford Colleagues, Please note the following information on University equipment grant programs for 2017-18, including due dates. The fall program will not require cost share. The spring program requires cost share and endorsement. More information will follow on this - cost share in the CoE will be split equally between the CoE and Schools/Faculty. Best, Melba Sent on behalf of Jay T. Akridge, Interim Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Diversity; and Suresh V. Garimella, Executive Vice President for Research and Partnerships. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Deans, Associate Deans for Research, and Department Heads, We are pleased to jointly sponsor the 2017-18 Laboratory and Core Facility equipment program. This program merges three equipment grant opportunities sponsored by our offices during 2016-17 and will be the only internal equipment grants program offered by us during this fiscal year. $2,500,000 has been allocated to date (sum of the three previous programs), and we anticipate an opportunity to augment with additional funds. Applications for research equipment costing up to $100,000 will be reviewed this fall. Support for equipment costing $100,000 to $1,000,000 will be requested via proposals submitted in late January 2018 with assessment and endorsement by one or more Deans or Associate Deans for Research. Guidelines for both arms of the program and an application template are available from links on this page. http://www.purdue.edu/research/funding-and-grant-writing/funding/overview.p… A synopsis is also available from the Major Research Equipment button on this page. http://www.purdue.edu/research/funding-and-grant-writing/funding/overview.p… Jay and Suresh

IMPORTANT - Change to the iLab billing process
by Cox, Erica L 30 Aug '17

30 Aug '17

Greetings, This email is a notification of upcoming changes to the billing process in iLab. As we have continued to implement iLab, we have looked for ways to improve upon our processes to make things more simplified and automated in the system. One way that we intend to improve processes is to implement a new invoice approval step for PIs and business offices. Implementing this will also allow the facility managers and directors to 'touch' an iLab billing event one less time than they do today. Currently, the billing process consists of confirming usage and completing services, and then 5 business days later, creating and sending a billing file to Purdue. The new process will continue to require confirmation of usage and completion of services, as well as the creation of a billing event, but there will be no necessary time between the two events. Once usage is confirmed and services completed for a billing period, a facility manager can simply create the billing event and then send invoices to PIs. This will then trigger an email to each PI included in the billing, and they will then have 10 calendar days to make any changes to their account information before the billing event automatically is sent to Purdue's SAP system for posting. As a PI, this will be a significant change since today, you receive no billing email notification or approval from iLab. You can choose to review and approve the invoice(s) or allow your Business Offices to continue to review charges and make necessary adjustments to account assignments prior to the billing event being sent to SAP. If you desire to approve the invoice an instruction sheet outlining the steps to do so can be found here, on the Approve Invoice - PI Quick Reference Card<https://spa2010.itap.purdue.edu/Business/businessatpurdue/QRCs/Approve%20In…> (QRC). If you do not approve the charges, or find that they should be charged to an alternate account, the QRC also provides instructions on how to do so. All activity and billing periods revolve around a Recharge Center Billing Calendar FY 18<https://spa2010.itap.purdue.edu/Business/businessatpurdue/Documents/Recharg…>. This change will go into effect beginning with the August 14-August 31 Activity Period. What this means for you is that during the Core Review Period of September 1-5, facilities will begin sending invoices to PIs. Please note that even if an invoice is never approved, it will automatically be sent to SAP 10 calendar days after being created. If you have questions relating to this change, please email ilabhelp(a)purdue.edu<mailto:ilabhelp@purdue.edu>. ///////////////////////////////////////// Erica Cox Business Manager Birck Nanotechnology Center 1205 W.
