1099 Filing Success: A Collaborative Achievement!
This year, the 1099 filing process, traditionally a challenge for our team, saw remarkable improvement thanks to a strong, cross-functional effort. Recognizing the need for continuous improvement, a dedicated team was assembled from both Finance and the Medical Center to streamline and enhance the process. Through collaboration, we were not only able to complete a mock filing of our 1099 run, but also prepared to file early--a feat that has only been accomplished once before in the tenure of our team members. This achievement reflects countless hours of relationship-building, meetings, and trial and error. Major kudos to Ryan Ellis, Andrew Clark, Franky Kong, Logan Hobbs, Caleb Knapton, Andrew Sallans, Meredith Dixon, Jonathan Agop, Ron Crawford, JJ Sullivan, Joel Kreider, Cynthia Mendoza, Jamie Reid, UVA Print, and our friends at the UVA Health System (Josie Aragon-Harvey, Odile Browman, Sarah White, Shaniece White-Merritt).
Doug Stiles' Fixed Assets Impact
In just the twelve months that Doug Stiles has been at the University, he has tagged over 1,800 pieces of capital equipment and inventoried more than 3,000--ensuring accuracy and efficiency in the Fixed Assets process. His dedication to timely and precise Salesforce case management exemplifies Service Excellence and Accurate Information. Thank you for all of your hard work, Doug!
Ensuring Timely Holiday Stipends & Refunds
Student Financial Services and the Payments Team planned ahead and engaged early to coordinate a holiday break settlement, ensuring timely payments for students. Over the Holiday break, the Payments Team processed an off-cycle SIS run, successfully settling 41 stipends and 42 refunds. With stipends under increased scrutiny in recent years, this collaborative effort between SIS and AP made a meaningful impact--ensuring students and graduate students received their funds on time, even during the holidays. Thank you to Ryan Ellis, Tina Brice, and Shelly Winston-Bowers for their dedication to UVAFinance values of Service Excellence and Collaborative Relationships!
Core Values Session for New Hires
Recently, we had the pleasure of hosting a "Core Values" session for our recent new hires in UVAFinance! A big thank you to Patty Marbury for leading this important session, which introduced our new team members (Victoria Malamphy, Christa Albanez, Matt Phillippi, Alper Cakir, Robbie Almand, Katreace Payne, and Tari Omekwe) to UVAFinance's values and our vision to be UVA's valued and trusted financial partner. It's essential to us that, from day one, every new hire understands our culture and the important role they play in our success.
We appreciate our new colleagues taking the time to dive in and learn more about what makes UVAFinance special. We're confident they'll do great things here, and we wish them all the best as they begin their careers with the team!
