What support is available to assist academics with Full Economic Costing (fEC)?
The University has purchased a software package (pFACT) to support the costing, on fEC principles, of all external projects. This will minimise additional workload for academics and training and support will be provided. Information about pFACT can be found on the University’s fEC website: http://www.strath.ac.uk/fec. From 1st June, all research projects should be costed using pFACT. Information about Full Economic Costing, including how to calculate academic time and the corresponding indirect costs and Estates charges, can be found on the University’s fEC website: http://www.strath.ac.uk/fec The staff of Research & Knowledge Exchange Services (RKES) are available to support academics with their research application and costing/pricing queries.
