Welcome to the Office of Research Administration (ORA) webpage for service centers. ORA is the authoritative entity to review and approve billing rates for the University of Miami. ORA should be used as a resource to obtain guidance and information concerning compliance with federal regulations and University policies and procedures as they pertain to service center operations. We provide oversight and review of the accounting aspects of service centers, and analyze and approve the service center rates charged to users. A service center, or recharge center, is a unit within University of Miami which provides goods and/or services of a specialized nature to other University of Miami users on a recurring basis and charges a fee for those goods/services. Operations that are set up as recharge/service centers are designed to recover the costs of their operations primarily through charges to internal (UM) users. For assistance with developing rates or for general questions regarding service center activity, please contact Kris Roth at kra24@miami.edu, or (305) 284-9849, or Lydia Zantout at Lxz327@miami.edu or (305) 284-3953. Below you can find helpful information, such as the Service Center Policy, Billing Rates Template, and helpful links.
