  6. Strengths • Customer Service • We develop budgets and manage 12 funds that consist of federal, state and local funding totaling about $100 mil budget for 2009-2010. • In 08-09, we had about 50 active restricted programs • We process 4,000 purchase orders a year, thousands vendor invoices, hundreds of travel requests and hundreds of reimbursement requests.

  7. Weaknesses • Our financial systems not integrated: Banner, PeopleSoft, RAD, SACS, Labor, LLL and HRS. • Manual processes: Our systems do not talk to each other meaning turning data into useful information is extensively manual and time consuming • Lack of Budget Projection Software: Manual • Lack of Position Control: We also do not have position control making budget estimation difficult and understanding who is doing what

  8. Opportunities • Integrated Systems • Position control available • Automation of manual processes and forms for efficiency and to reduce redundancy

  9. Threats • Mid-year cuts • Continued budget cuts in the out years: the financial community is projecting deeper cuts into the 2010-2011 fiscal year • Cuts to the base allocation • Deeper cuts to student support programs • The growing deferral figure now expected to be a continued part of budgeting

  10. Budget Cuts at the State Level • Feb 2009: $36 bil in cuts adopted • July 2009: An additional $24 bil in cuts and borrowing adopted, which includes: • $16 bil in cuts • $8 bil in borrowing • October 2009: State deficit now over $1.1 bil over July 2009 estimates

  11. Impact to California Community Colleges • 08-09: $84 mil in cuts • 09-10: Over $750 mil in cuts • $120 mil general unrestricted funds • Approximately $53 mil in property tax shortfall • Over $20 mil in Student fees shortfall • $333 mil in Categorical Cuts-Some as much as 40% • $40 mil in additional shortfalls • No growth • No COLA • Deferrals now projected to be permanent part of the budget: • Cash flow is the lifeblood of any organization. California Community Colleges are faced with close to a $1 bil in deferrals this fiscal year and counting. • ARRA funds (One-time funding) was $130 mil, then $37 mil, now $35 mil • Increase in Student Fees from $20 to $26 per credit unit

  12. Impact to Antelope Valley College • Roughly 9% general fund budget cut or nearly $5 mil • Deferrals over $10 mil in apportionment • Additional Expenses: Deferrals equal borrowing, which equals interest expense • Borrowing limited and heavily scrutinized from lenders • Borrowing from other funds • Borrowing from the Treasury • Borrowing from TRANs • Pursuing Line of Credit • ARRA funds are approximately $345K to AVC

  13. What are other colleges doing? • Survey went around to other colleges asking the following: • How many Districts have implemented furloughs or layoffs for the 2009-10 fiscal year due to the current budget crisis? • How many Districts are supporting categorical programs at the level of anticipated ARRA funds even though the funds received have been identified as unrestricted general purpose?

  14. What are other colleges doing? - Results • 22 Colleges Responded • How many Districts have implemented furloughs or layoffs for the 2009-10 fiscal year due to the current budget crisis? • 19 responded with no layoffs or furloughs for 2009-2010 year (including AVC); 1 planning layoffs effective in 2010-2011 fiscal year • 2 college negotiated furloughs for 2009-2010 year; 1 planning layoffs effective in 2010-2011 year • 1 college responded that they laid off 6 positions • How many Districts are supporting categorical programs at the level of anticipated ARRA funds even though the funds received have been identified as unrestricted general purpose? • 19 responded that funds will be used to backfill categoricals (including AVC) • 3 colleges didn’t respond to the question or didn’t know yet

  23. What managers can do in these tough budget times? • Just-in-time supplies. Do not allow “stocking up” • Consolidate requirements • Use warehouse inventory-we benefit from ordering in larger quantities and realize savings through price breaks • Utilities: Turn off electronics at night. Turn off lights in rooms unused • Submit recommendations to the Business Office or to Administration on how to save on expenditures
