标题： Administration Costs in the Management of Research Funds; A Case Study of a Public Fund for the Promotion of Industrial Innovation

摘要： 科研资助机构通常会使用其总收益的一部分来支持内部管理及市场营销费用。 管理费用与总费用的比率，称为管理比率，变化较大，并且在任何单一基金中取决于许多因素，包括项目数量和平均规模以及资助机构的整体效率。 在本研究中，已确定标准的机构活动，并用于开发一个管理成本与预期结果之间的模型。 特别是，该模型被设计为根据一系列关键输入变量（包括项目规模、提案评估和项目管理的复杂性、资助者的风险承受能力和目标研究领域）来估算最优组合成功率和管理比率。 显示英文摘要

摘要： Research funding agencies routinely use a proportion of their total revenues to support internal administration and marketing costs. The ratio of administration to total costs, referred to as the administration ratio, is highly variable and within any single fund depends on many factors including the number and average size of projects and the overall efficiency of the funding agency. In this study, the standard agency activities have been identified and used to develop a model of administration costs against expected outcomes. In particular, the model has been designed to estimate the optimum portfolio success rate and administration ratio as a function of a range of key input variables including the project size, the complexity of proposal evaluation and project management, the risk tolerance of the sponsor and the targeted research domain.
