Cost Savings Strategies
1. Business Services: Combining Positions (asking our good people to do more)
Initiated by: Peggy Howse, Brian Compton, and Linda Gendin
Procedure:
As a position becomes available (relocation, retirement, etc), we make the determination as to the criticality of filling this position. If possible, it will not be filled.
However, if it is too critical to stay unfilled, we look to see what functions can be combined, or how duties can be consolidated under the watch of another individual. Thus far, we have been successful in accomplishing this goal in three separate situations.
Resultant Savings:
Combined an essential clerk role (relocated to Texas) with a Sr. Retail position (retirement) to establish a new Retail Manager position -- annual savings of $25,000.
Reclassified a unit IT position to a departmental IT position, thereby eliminating external IT support -- annual savings $30,000.
Re-assigned a departing business manager position (left to pursue passion of high school teaching position) to another business unit manager who has been desiring greater challenge and responsibility at UCF -- annual savings of $35,000.
Total annual savings of $90,000.
