FY20 Budget | Methodology New positions anticipated for FY20 will not be included in the FY20 budget All new positions for FY20 will need to be requested through HR and approved by the Vice Dean of Finance & Administration and/or Deputy Dean as needed during the course of the fiscal year. Budget requests for Additional Funds should only be submitted for essential needs Attempt to fund smaller expenses through departmental productivity gains, using restricted funds, departmental discretionary funds or reducing spending in other areas. All substantive requests will be submitted, with a written case for its necessity. These requests will be considered in relation to all requests, based upon the overall budget situation of the School. Departmental meetings regarding the additional requests will be scheduled with the budget team and Vice Dean of Finance & Administration to examine the need and potential alternatives. The Dean, in conjunction with the Vice Dean of Finance & Administration, will approve or reject spending proposals. !

FY20 Budget | Potential Productivity Enhancements Supplier relationships Can we evaluate spending with major suppliers and see if existing terms can be renegotiated? Can contracts be put out for bid? Eliminating Wharton Printing will save the school $500k annually, while reducing stationary and print costs by 30% to 40% for Wharton departments. Utilize technology to reduce costs and enhance efficiency Wharton F&A had 25 printers within the department and has reduced it to 2 printers, resulting in significant lease savings. Eliminating unnecessary leasing costs would result in large cost savings. Could a technological solution reduce or eliminate existing expense? Travel & Entertainment Can trips be planned earlier to save on airfare costs? Can we compare caterers based upon prices to try and reduce costs? Can conferences and meetings be scaled back? Is using technology for meetings rather than incurring travel expenses an option? !
