Information about ChemIT's monthly bills to faculty.

What is this bill, and who provides oversight?

Under the direction of the faculty-led Chemistry Computing Committee, ChemIT bills each faculty member's group monthly for about 1/4 of ChemIT's total expenses.

Charges in the invoices are based on an algorithm provided by the Chemistry Computing Committee:

Charge/ FY

Charge ($)

FY 2013-2013

What is the billing process?

ChemIT repeats each month's billing, with no changes.

This avoids the extra work of requiring each group to update their data monthly.

When there are significant changes (account numbers, "true-up" months), ChemIT communicates these changes to the affected research groups.

If your group has experienced a significant change you want reflected in the forthcoming monthly invoices, notify the Chair of the Chemistry Computing Committee to vet your request. Thank you.

August 2014

ChemIT provides each group with a list of staff and computer counts, for confirmation and corrections.
Using the confirmed numbers, ChemIT to use them for the July 2014 bill, onwards.

What if something changes in my bill- how will I know?

Most months there are no changes in each bill. If there are changes (account numbers, etc.), ChemIT will be contact the appropriate faculty member so there are no surprises.

I want a copy of my bill. How do I get it?

Please contact Kevin Ashman (CCB Finance) for a copy your invoice, if you require it.

Note that the invoices are identical from one month to the other, unless a change has been communicated to the group's faculty member.

I have a question or concern about these bills not addressed above. Who do I contact?
