The University Business Office mission at FIU is to provide a centralized hub for both qualitative and quantitative added value for the fee generating trust funds, in an effort to assist with the development of creative solutions for existing challenges as well as scanning the horizon for new opportunities. The principle focus will be the Auxiliary Trust Fund with similar analysis of Local Funds such as the Student Government Association, Athletics, Concessions and Financial Aid Trust Funds.

Core functions such as monitoring, reviews and analysis will focus on preserving operational integrity. Added value will focus on improving efficiency and effectiveness through the use of performance measures, outcome attainment versus input orientation, strategic planning and financial data responsiveness to be assessed by a Board of individuals directly involved with or having core competencies in the respective operational areas.
