Resource Management Model

How the Resource Management Model

is Different than the Previous Method of Budgeting

The Resource Management Model was developed at Iowa State University.

This differs from the university's former budgeting model in that the Resource Management Model:

• More accurately links responsibilities with resource decisions
• Provides decision-makers with more transparent and relevant information
• Provides a more effective way to accomplish the goals of the university's strategic plan
• Rewards units that focus on high quality education, research, and outreach programs
