Universitetet i Bergen har implementert TDI-modellen (totale direkte og indirekte kostnader) som man n\u00e5 budsjetterer prosjekter utifra. Denne modellen best\u00e5r b\u00e5de av indirekte kostnader (dekningsbidrag, overhead) og direkte kostnader som forskningsinfrastruktur.<\/p>\n<p>Per i dag er de indirekte kostnadene for et vitenskapelig \u00e5rsverk 413.000 NOK og for teknisk\/administrativt 114.000 NOK. De indirekte kostnadene er utgifter til infrastruktur som kontor og fellesarealer, service som bibliotek, IT, administrativt og \u00f8konomisk management, HMS, kurs, juridisk bistand, dokumentasjon mm.<\/p>\n<p>De direkte kostnadene er en annen komponent av total kost modellen (TDI). Denne er sammensatt av investeringer og avskrivning av instrumenter, servicekontrakter, generelle laboratoriekostnader, inkludert husleie og teknisk hjelp &#8211; kalt leiestedskostnader. Klinisk institutt 2 har kalkulert at leiestedskostnadene for 2015 er 95.000 NOK per \u00e5rsverk.\u00a0 Leiestedskostnadene skal da dekke teknikerhjelp for \u00e5 klargj\u00f8re laboratoriene, drift i laboratoriet som hansker, gass, pipettespisser etc \u2013 de vanligste infrastrukturkostnadene.<\/p>\n<p>Klinisk institutt 2 er det instituttet som for tiden har st\u00f8rst portef\u00f8lje p\u00e5 eksternfinansierte prosjekter p\u00e5 MOF.\u00a0 NFR og EU\/H2020 prosjektene er eksemplariske p\u00e5 den m\u00e5ten at de bidrar med overhead-midler som dekker de kostnader instituttet p\u00e5drar seg for \u00e5 kunne drifte prosjektet.<\/p>\n<p>Men hva skjer n\u00e5r indirekte kostnader ikke er en del av bevilgningen til prosjektene?\u00a0 Hvem m\u00e5 da betale?\u00a0 Jo, da blir det institutt i samarbeid med fakultetet som m\u00e5 g\u00e5 inn.\u00a0 P\u00e5 denne m\u00e5ten svekkes instituttets \u00f8konomi kontinuerlig hver gang et prosjekt med nulldekningsbidrag aksepteres.<\/p>\n<p>Hva kan gj\u00f8res med dette?\u00a0 M\u00e5 vi begynne \u00e5 nekte \u00e5 ta imot prosjekter som ikke inkluderer dekningsbidrag?

Why do I<br \/>adress this in an editorial in K2Nytt? Well, because this is a very<br \/>significant part of the department&#8217;s finances, that we are so utterly<br \/>dependent on.<br \/>But what do these terms mean? The University of Bergen has implemented\u00a0the TDI model (total direct and indirect costs) that we are now\u00a0budgeting for projects based on. This model consists of both indirect\u00a0costs (overhead) and direct costs like research infrastructure.\u00a0As of today, the indirect costs of a scientific FTE is 413.000 NOK and\u00a0for a technical \/ administrative FTE it is 114.000 NOK. The indirect\u00a0costs are the costs of infrastructure such as offices and common areas,\u00a0services like the library, IT, administrative and financial management,\u00a0safety, training, legal assistance, documentation and so forth.\u00a0The direct costs are another component of the total cost model (TDI).\u00a0This is composed of investment and depreciation of instruments, service\u00a0contracts, general laboratory costs, including rent and technical\u00a0support &#8211; called the research infra-structure resource cost (RIR). The Department of Clinical\u00a0Science has calculated the RIR-cost for 2015 to be 95.000\u00a0NOK per FTE. The RIR-cost include technical support to get\u00a0laboratories ready, laboratory costs like gloves, gas, pipette tips,\u00a0etc. &#8211; the common infrastructure costs.\u00a0The Department of Clinical Science is currently the department with the\u00a0largest portfolio of externally financed projects on MOF. The NFR and\u00a0EU\/H2020 projects are exemplary in the way that they contribute overhead\u00a0funds that cover the costs the department incurs to be able to operate\u00a0the project.\u00a0But what happens when indirect costs are not part of the grant for the\u00a0projects? Who must then pay? Well, then it will be the Department in\u00a0collaboration with the Faculty that takes the costs. In this way the\u00a0Department&#8217;s economy is continuously weakened whenever a project with\u00a0zero overhead is accepted.\u00a0What can we do about this? Do we have to refuse projects that do not\u00a0include overhead? How long will it take to get a new &laquo;culture&raquo; &#8211;\u00a0changing the attitudes of contributors? How do we achieve it? These\u00a0questions concern us all together!<\/p>\n<p>Roland<\/p>\n<p><!--:--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Det sies at kj\u00e6rt barn har mange navn \u2013 og det har ogs\u00e5 disse begrepene som forskerne knapt liker, men som man likevel m\u00e5 forholde seg til.\u00a0 Hvorfor tar jeg da dette opp i en leder til K2 nytt?\u00a0 Jo,&hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/2015\/05\/22\/overhead-dekningsbidrag-indirekte-kostnader\/\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"author":3238,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[44,39969],"tags":[64942],"class_list":["post-6741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-nyheter","category-ukens-leder","tag-64942"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3238"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6741"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6741\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6774,"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6741\/revisions\/6774"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
