b'Strategic Growth Action PlanFunding StrategyFunding the SGAP: ResourcesNo strategic plan would be complete without considering the resources needed to execute the key initiatives presented. As the very foundation of the strategic pillar #4 in the SGAP, the importance of scal sustainability and shared values of asset stewardship and nancial accountability require a careful analysis of current expenditure baseline to ensure resources are allocated to strategic priorities, e$ciencies are leveraged, and sustainable and diverse resources are advanced. Heidelbergs collaborative budget model creates a platform to more easily align nancial resources to priorities presented in the divisions operational plan. SGAP initiatives will be funded in ve primary ways. Heidelberg must execute all ve of these funding components as soon as possible if we are to successfully implement the SGAP.1.Rightsizing our Structural Operating Model by eliminating or reducing existing expenses;2.Redeploying existing funds from lower priorities to higher priorities;3.Raising new funding sources through grants and donors;4.Rolling over an operating surplus from one scal year into an SGAP Fund; and5.Drawing unrestricted funds from the General Endowment for an SGAP Fund.Why is there an SGAP Fund?The purpose of separating the SGAP Fund from the Operating Fund is to provide one source of funding for the SGAP by supporting large, cross-institutional initiatives that will have signicant impact throughout the University and a#ecting multiple departments. There are 52 new initiatives in the SGAP for moving Heidelberg forward. These opportunities for new growth require resources to invest in those initiatives that align with the strategic objectives of the University. Failure to have funds available when the need arises would be detrimental to the overall success of Heidelberg University.What is the size of the SGAP Fund?The SGAP Fund will be $1,000,000 and the intention is to support multiple major projects in any given year. We have not developed or dened the necessary budgets for all of the KSIs or projects at this time. If there are any funds remaining at the end of the year, the balance will roll forward into the following year. Should there be an operating surplus at the end of the scal year, the Senior Leadership Team may decide to place all or part of the surplus into the SGAP Fund.23'
