The transfer of funding into 2010 (last column above, MNOK 7,4) consists of MNOK 4,2 accrued, not invoiced 2009 and MNOK 3,2 received or
invoiced, but not spent on projects at year end 2009. MoFa Framework funding from 2008 and 2009 and core funding
are not carried over to 2010.
The project reviews shows that remaining funding should be sufficient to deliver output according to the contracts with clients.
The major work and risk elimination for the 2009 financial closing has been to review all projects in order to have a correct funding balance and overview
over invoicing, reporting and remaining costs to finalize the projects. This review leaded to a reallocation of funding between the programmes as showed in
column 3 and 4 above.
In 2009 project income was generated from 171 different projects. 45 projects are closed in 2009 and at present 120 projects are open. All income needs to
be funded or loss has to be taken if funding is not available. In 2009 reallocation of funding has been made on very few projects to cover overspending or
underfunding. In 2008 a major income write-down of MNOK 3,8 was taken in December caused by underfunding on projects.
In 2008 and first half of 2009 there has been challenges to reconcile financial figures on funding and expenditures in our separate project management
system and accounting system. As of 2010 all bookings of funding, funding classes and allocation to projects are integrated and booked separate in the
accounting system Xledger in order to obtain a correct financial balance on project level.
With a new Finance and Project Controller in work these tasks can be monitored and followed up regularly and finance- and resource management on
project level and general planning can be further improved in 2010.
