Roles and Responsibilities
Divisional Finance Leader (DFL) Roles and Responsibilities
Coordinate with their recharge units to submit self-certification forms with an acknowledgment of Divisional review and approval.
Ensure that proposed multi year recharge rates are considered in their division's budgeted recharge income, as appropriate.
Inform their primary campus clients of the new recharge dollar amounts once recharge rates are approved and discuss planned recharged volumes. This will help to ensure their clients' budgets accurately reflect the new values and campus-wide planned recharge income ties to planned recharge expenses.
Raise any questions about either rate certification or planning for recharge expenses to Hervé Bruckert at recharge_certification@berkeley.edu.
Office of the CFO Roles and Responsibilities
Compile multi year recharge rate submissions, prepare and share a schedule of budgeted rates with Divisional Finance Leaders (DFLs) by March each year.
Conduct a review and analysis of divisional recharge rate submissions and follow-up with DFLs as needed.
Communicate rate decisions in June and post approved rates to the recharge webpage by the end of the second week of June.
