Faculty Remuneration Plan (FRP) • Each month, the DOM captures the year-to-date revenues and expenses that are directly attributable to each faculty member. They are summarized in the faculty member’s individual FRP. • On a quarterly basis, the Division allocates overhead expenses and revenue for roles within the Division to specific faculty members. The DOM subsequently publishes the quarterly FRP for faculty members to review. • Each faculty member’s FRP contains his/her individual revenues and expenses, which are categorized as “operating” or “non-operating.” Non-operating items include grants/gifts/awards that originate from other Departments as well as start-up/bridge funds (regardless of source). All other items are considered operating. The faculty member’s FRP also reflects totals for the Division and the DOM. • The FRP is used in conjunction with other, non-financial tools to measure faculty performance. It is submitted annually to the Dean’s office along with the DOM’s faculty salary adjustments and incentive requests.
How Do I Access My FRP? • Faculty members can access their individual FRP by logging into the ERS website: http://domerp1.eservices.virginia.edu/ibi_apps/bid-login?IBIWF_language=en& • Division Chiefs have access to the FRPs of all faculty members within the Division. • The DOM’s IT website contains a FAQ guide with instructions for accessing ERS and viewing the FRP: http://deptmedicine.eservices.virginia.edu/dom-ops/howtos/Phys%20IBI%20Sys%20HowTo%20CFR%20FRP3.pdf
