CONSENT AGENDA ITEMS
Virginia Blood Services Contract • We are asking the Board to authorize the EVP for Health Affairs to execute a two-year contract extension with current vendor for blood services and products. • This contract extension will: • assure clinical continuity while Clinical Labs team completes Epic Beaker implementation • allow Blood Bank and VCU to explore possibility of entering into joint contract in 2018 • Total estimated annual value will exceed $5 million 4
University Oversight of 403(b) Retirement Plan The University provides two primary defined contribution retirement plans: • The Optional Retirement Program (“ORP”) (funded with employer contributions) • A 403(b) retirement program (funded with employee contributions) The University actively administers the ORP but does not provide the same level of oversight to the 403(b) 5
University Oversight of 403(b) Retirement Plan With oversight from the Finance Committee, the Retirement Administrative Committee (“RAC”) performs the following functions: • Establishing and maintaining investment procedures • Reviewing fund investment performance • Communicating with plan participants and plan providers • Contracting with necessary professionals 6
University Oversight of 403(b) Retirement Plan • Evolving best practices are resulting in more peer institutions adopting oversight of 403(b) programs • Providing oversight of both programs would benefit participants by: • Aligning the goals of both plans • Reducing and linking fund platforms • Establishing consistent messaging • Reducing participant confusion • Mitigating risk from disparate funds 7
Implementation Timeline 1. Communication package mailed to homes – August 2016 2. On-Grounds presentations – Fall 2016 3. Targeted meetings with key faculty/staff groups – Fall 2016 4. Increased vendor presence for participants – Fall 206 5. New fund menu available – September 2016 6. Transition of assets and funds – Spring 2017 8
University Oversight of 403(b) Retirement Plan • We are asking the Board of Visitors to: • adopt equal oversight responsibility for the University-provided defined contribution retirement plans • delegate oversight responsibility for both plans to the Finance Committee 9
