Starting in May 2024, the Alliance adapted its monthly Time and Effort Report that is reviewed by Kim Atkins, Executive Director, to be used for allocation of expenses other than payroll. This ensures a consistent, reviewed and authorized report is being used for expense allocation. This report is shared monthly with the Alliance’s funding agencies along with the submission of monthly vouchers for processing. During the year ended June 30, 2025, the Alliance has ensured that allocations were signed off on by Kim and has significantly reduced the amount of finance staff time required to process the allocation of administrative costs.
As of July 1, 2025, the approved staff allocations are being uploaded into ADP in the anticipation of a direct link between ADP and the NetSuite general ledger so that personnel costs will be allocated automatically going forward.
As of July 1, 2025 the Alliance is modifying all of its grants to adopt the 15% de minimis cost rate for all expenses other than personnel, direct program, and space costs.
