RCM & HPCM How RU & Huron used HPCM to solve a RCM problem
WHAT IS RESPONSIBILITY CENTER MANAGEMENT? Revenues are credited to the Responsibility Center that generates them Schools must then pay for their direct expenses as well as a share of the expenses to fund the Support Units REVENUE Tuition and Fees F&A Return Other Income RESPONSIBILITY CENTERS Schools Research Centers Auxiliaries DIRECT & INDIRECT COSTS Direct Expenses System-wide Support Units Local/ Regional Support Units 16
RCM INDIRECT COST POOLS
ALLOCATION OF COSTS University-wide Campus Divisions Costs that are incurred by university-wide support units providing services to all Rutgers campuses Costs that are incurred by support units providing services at the campus or chancellor level 18
ALLOCATION METRICS Cost pools are developed and then allocated to the Responsibility Centers using a metric. The metrics used should be: the best measure of the activity based on best practices verifiable, easy to understand, and uniform Unit Expenditures Enrollment & Tuition Data Faculty, Staff, and Student FTE Net Assignable Square Footage Research Expenditures Data
TRANSITIONING THE MODEL RCM Model Pain Points RCM Model Developed in Excel: Main File = 12MB File 40 Tabs/15 Pivots/6 Data sheets/10 Allocation Calculations/9 Reference sheets 25+ additional worksheets that have backup data 18-20 second recalculation time for single cell change Version Control 100 s of versions with many sub-versions Alternations in organizational structure would require hours/days of work to change the model Modeling of effects on use of metrics would take many hours Determining Cost Pools over 2 GL s and 7 distinct cost pool locations The Solution Implement Hyperion Profitability & Cost Management module Leverage existing Hyperion Planning capabilities at RU Use new Chart of Accounts structure Unit segment Who Business line segment - Why Location segment Where/ For Whom Use of HPCM beyond RCM Indirect Costs for ICR Negotiation & Audit Student/Cohort/Course costing Selected Huron as our Implementation Partner
RUTGERS USE OF HPCM Project Scope Standardization of business drivers and supporting calculations: Allocate cost pool expenses across Responsibility Centers Allocate State Appropriation revenue across Responsibility Centers Ability to perform What If analysis Ability to provide allocation data that will be integrated into the university budget process Consistent reporting and analysis capability across the enterprise, subject to user security configuration Streamlined allocation process
RUTGERS USE OF HPCM Project Outcomes The creation of a common allocation model that facilitates transparency of drivers and the consistency of allocation methodology The provision of an integrated platform that supports financial planning and key management reporting requirements. Making information accessible across the appropriate levels within the organization Increased confidence in RCM!!
RUTGERS USE OF HPCM - FLOW
RUTGERS USE OF HPCM ARCHITECTURE & SCHEMA Driver Staging Hyperion Planning (RCMStage) application to consolidate and review revenue, cost and systematic driver data The existing Hyperion Planning application, is the source of Revenue and Expense data PCM (RCMProf) application to execute all allocations. HPCM generates two Essbase database to support executing the allocations and preliminary analysis Planning Web Forms, also accessible from SmartView, are used to input non-systematic driver data and adjustments into RCMStage
HPCM FOR STUDENT COHORT/PROGRAM/COURSE COSTING Going Beyond RCM
WHY STUDENT COHORT/PROGRAM/COURSE COSTING Understand the financial stability of programs and courses Aid in program prioritization and strategic planning of new programs & courses Understand the true cost to education cohorts of students
THE FLEXIBILITY OF HPCM Flexibility to allocate without a restructure of the Chart of Accounts Use the data you have as a starting point Identify and understand the data gaps Facilities Costs Square Feet Expenses Faculty Costs Instructional Hours Student Cohort, Program, Course Support Services Weighted Credit Hour Tuition & Fees Record/ Instruction Revenue Other Revenue % Distribution Student Cohort, Program, Course Margin
