Hello all-
I'm conducting an informal survey of the various policies regarding indirect
cost allocation.  We're researching the feasibility flowing back of a
portion of these funds to internal research, and I was wondering how other
institutions allocate their recovered IDC.
If funds flow back to fund research, what percentage is returned and what is
kept for institutional overhead costs?
How are these flow-back funds allocated within the research structure, i.e.
a general research fund, department fund, individual PI support?
How is the spending of recovered IDC funds monitored and by whom?

Any guidance you can give me will be very helpful.  We're starting to firm
up our practices into formal policies, and I'd like to create a good
foundation to work from.
Thanks,
Amy
