don't see something that you are looking for, let me know because we may
have it and just not summarized it yet.

I have some numbers from the FY 2000 SRA-KPMG Sponsored Programs
Benchmarking Survey. The following are interquartile values for
institutions in the 1Q of total sponsored programs funding (Less than $25M
annual). There are 14 institutions in this quartile. Let me know if you
want additional information about the survey and available data.

Subject: [RESADM-L] what is reasonable research office funding as a
percent of grants?
I have just been appointed to the research and development committee at
my VA medical center.
We have about 3 million dollars a year in outside funding that goes
through our VA, and another 2-3 million that goes through a nearby
medical school (for which we get no indirect costs). Our research
office (which handles IRB and accounting) has an annual budget of
300,000 and claims that they are seriously underfunded.
Does any one have a rule of thumb as to what is reasonable for funding
of research office support, as a percentage of grants received?
