Hi Inken,

 

Thank you for the response below. To clarify I was not intending ‘burden’ to be linked with the work of the administrators in this field. When I use that term here I mean additional burden that comes from requirements for duplicative actions (like current and pending support submitted twice) or new regulations/laws that increased the work necessary to accept manage sponsored project funding.

 

Thank you,

Hi,

Wishing you the very best in your defense today!  However, and I hope I don't sound mean-spirited, it makes me sad that people still use the word "burden" in connection with administrative staff.  This is something that we have battled for several years in my place of work as it has been generally used in a pejorative way and is very demoralizing to hear.

Hello, Sarah -

 

As coincidence would have it, I am defending my dissertation tomorrow and it is focused on administrative burden in federal research grant management from the point of view of research administrators. Although the resources I have don't relate to "more touches" per se, I do have several sources I am happy to share with you and anyone else who is interested in the topic.  A few examples include:

 

Mosley, L., Forsberg, J., & Ngo, D. (2020). Reducing Administrative in Federal Research Grants to Universities

http://www.businessofgovernment.org/report/reducing-administrative-burden-federal-research-grants-universities

 

Research Business Models Working Group Committee on Science. (2018, May). Reducing Federal Administrative and Regulatory 

Burdens on Research. Executive Office of the President of the United States, National Science & Technology Council. 

https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Reducing-Federal-Administrative-and-Regulatory-Burdens-on-Research.pdf

 

 

Kamensky, J. (2020, January 30). Reducing Administrative Burden.

http://www.businessofgovernment.org/blog/reducing-administrative-burden

 

 

Most of the research to date has focused on faculty burden as opposed to the burden experienced by research administrators, but hopefully we can change that.   My email is xxxxxx@nd.edu if anyone prefers to communicate directly.

 

Sincerely,

Jessica

Good afternoon,

 

Have any of you found a good educational or scholarly article, journal posting, or other resource that looks at the increase in administrative burden in managing federal financial assistance funding for a certain period of time? I am trying to compile a staffing plan and need some metrics or article data/references to substantiate my position on the increase in administrative burden as it relates to ‘more touches’, an increase in monitoring needs, and an increase in coordination with other compliance units due to the breadth of new(er) regulations from our sponsors.

 

I would appreciate any hints, resources, links, or other information that you have reviewed that would speak to an increase in administrative burden in our field. My direct email is xxxxxx@uidaho.edu.

 

Thank you,

Sarah
