Hi all, Please see e-mail below from Jeff Bassford regarding changes in the Business Center.

As you can see, we will have a new business manager: Sarah Stehr that we will share with BSE. Sarah will start on Aug 1st and will slowly transition into her new role with Mindy's and Lauren's help. So, for now, please keep sending requests to Mindy as usual.

Please let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them.

Thanks, Silvana

In an effort to address persistent gaps in our ability to provide necessary business support services, the IANR business operations team is working through an internal reorganization. As we begin the new fiscal year, we will be migrating to slightly larger local business center teams to provide more seamless coverage. The new business center/unit alignments are as follows, with affiliation changes in bold and highlighted:

AVE - Carrie Adams, Manager - Current AVE units + Entomology, LTAP, Engler, Forensic Science HAPPI - Teresa Loseke, Manager - Current HAPPI units + Beadle Center NRBC - Kyle Bogus, Manager - Current NRBC units + Ag Leadership Education and Communications, Ag Econ, MEP, RPN NIC - Sarah Stehr, Manager - Current NIC units + Biological Systems Engineering, DWFI ENREEC - Sarah Hansen, Manager WCREEC/PREEC - Hannah Hokanson, Manager

Additionally, we are creating focused HR and Financial Operations teams. These teams will bring together roles from across all business centers into central support teams. This adjustment is intended to provide more depth, stability, continuity and consistency of services. The team leaders are shown below:

HR/Payroll Operations Team - Mindy Lang, Manager Financial Operations Team - Manager TBD

For now, processing and support requests should continue to be directed to your local business center team, who will insure delivery to the appropriate staff within our operation. As we settle into the new structure, some of our processes and staff locations may change. Updated instructions will be provided accordingly.

Feel free to share this message within your units as you feel is helpful. If you receive questions that I can assist in answering do not hesitate to let me know. Thank you.

Jeff
