COMMUNICATION USER FTE NETWORK
The Communication User FTE Network Funding Model is the mechanism by which UITS recovers a portion of the costs of providing data and voice connectivity to University of Arizona campus customers. This model is based on Full Time Equivalent (FTE) employees. For FY18, the FTE Rate was $776 per FTE.
DEFERRED MAINTENANCE COSTS
The University has accumulated deferred network infrastructure maintenance due to the lack of increase in the FTE fee since 2008. UA has deployed $23.2M worth of network equipment on campus, $5M of which is end of life and has not yet been refreshed.
