Vialet Chairman, Committee on Finance 32nd Legislature of the U.S. Virgin Islands Capital Building, P.O. Box 1690 St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands 00804 Re: U.S. Virgin Islands Economic Development Authority’s FY 2019 Budget Submission Dear Senator Vialet: It gives me great pleasure to present the U.S. Virgin Islands Economic Development Authority’s (“USVIEDA” or “Authority”) Fiscal Year 2019 budget for consideration by the Committee on Finance. The USVIEDA Fiscal Year 2019 budget request is $5,882,865. This amount is the same level requested in Fiscal Year 2018. We arrived at this request by analyzing the level of appropriations and allotment releases in Fiscal Year 2017 and 2018 as follows: Fiscal Year 2017 Fiscal Year 2018 (Roll Over Budget) Use of Funds Appropriation Allotment Difference ($) Reduction (%) General Operations $5,482,865 $4,875,163 $607,702 11% Supp. Marketing Funds 500,000 485,000 15,000 3% Economic Impact Study 150,000 95,000 55,000 37% Supp. Incubator Funds 150,000 - 150,000 100% Total $6,282,865 $5,455,163 $827,702 13% Use of Funds Appropriation Allotment Difference ($) Reduction (%) General Operations $5,482,865 $4,797,507 $685,358 12.5% Supp. Marketing Funds - - - Economic Impact Study - - - Supp. Incubator Funds - - - Total $5,482,865 $4,797,507 $685,358 12.5% The Honorable Kurt Vialet USVIEDA FY 2019 Budget Request July 10, 2018 Fiscal Year 2019 Budget Request The supplemental marketing funding that we are requesting is even more critical now since the storms, as our aim is to attract more investors by spreading the good news around that the Territory is recovering and steadily rebuilding its infrastructure much better than ever before. It has been said that small business is the backbone of an economy, and we believe that the supplemental funding request for the Incubator Program will help to ensure that this sector receives the level of support it needs to grow into mainstream businesses creating new jobs for our citizens. We are aware that a budget is just what it is - a plan. Therefore, our aim is to maximize the limited resources available to us to achieve the greatest return on our investment, that is, to create new jobs paying decent wages to our citizens. We look forward to dialogue with you and the rest of your colleagues during the budget hearing process. Respectfully, Wayne L. Biggs, Jr. Wayne L.

U.S. Virgin Islands Economic Development Authority – Fiscal Year 2019 SCOPE AND OVERVIEW The USVIEDA is the unification of four (4) separate entities: the Economic Development Bank for the United States Virgin Islands (“EDB”), the Economic Development Commission (“EDC”), the Economic Development Park Corporation (“EDPC”), and the Enterprise Zone Commission (“EZC”). The functions of each entity have been unified under one Governing Board (“Board”). The Board is comprised of seven (7) members. Three (3) members are employees of the Government of the Virgin Islands or the Government of the United States and are appointed by the Governor, with the advice and consent of the Legislature for a term of three (3) years. Three (3) members must be non- government employees, one must be a resident of St. Thomas, another a resident of St. John, and the other a resident of St. Croix. One (1) member shall be appointed from either the Board or executive staff of the Employees Retirement System of the Government of the Virgin Islands, or the Virgin Islands Port Authority, or the University of the Virgin Islands. U.S. Virgin Islands Economic Development Authority – Fiscal Year 2019 USVIEDA ORGANIZATIONAL CHART U.S. Virgin Islands Economic Development Authority – Fiscal Year 2019 ACCOUNTING SYSTEM AND FINANCIAL REPORTING ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The USVIEDA is a component unit of the U.S. Virgin Islands Government and follows enterprise fund accounting and reporting. The financial statements are presented in a manner similar to that of a private business, using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Management prepares a number of financial and statistical reports, including the Financial Statements with Supplementary Information to support the annual audit, and is responsible for the integrity and objectivity of management and financial reporting. Financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America, applying certain estimates and judgments as required. The USVIEDA employs internal controls designed to provide reasonable assurance of integrity and reliability of financial reporting and to safeguard, verify, and maintain accountability of assets. Such controls are derived from established written policies and procedures that are implemented by trained and skilled personnel. The USVIEDA’s employment policy prescribes that all employees maintain the highest ethical standards and conduct business practices in a manner above reproach. The USVIEDA engages the services of outside auditors on an annual basis to perform an independent audit of its financial statements, the objective of which is to express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The Governing Board of the USVIEDA formulates the overall vision of the entity and fulfills its responsibilities of the oversight and administration of the Authority’s practices and governance through actions of the full Board. U.S. Virgin Islands Economic Development Authority – Fiscal Year 2019 USVIEDA DIRECT AND INDIRECT COST ALLOCATIONS The USVIEDA’s activities can be classified into two (2) distinct categories – operational units’ activities and administrative units’ activities. The definition of an operational unit is one that is charged with the responsibility of carrying out the organizational mandates. These operational units also known as divisions, include the Economic Development Bank (“EDB”), the Economic Development Commission (“EDC”), the Enterprise Zone Commission (“EZC”) and the Economic Development Park Corporation (“EDPC”). The definition of an administrative unit is one that provides support to the operational units in fulfilling the organizational mandates. These administrative units, also known as departments, include the Governing Board, the Executive Office, Administration and Finance, Human Resources (“HR”), Legal, Marketing/Public Relations, and Economic Development Management (“EDM”). The operating costs of the USVIEDA are classified as either direct or indirect. A direct cost is a cost that can be identified specifically with a unit and can be traced with relative ease and a high degree of accuracy to that unit. An indirect cost is a cost that is incurred in common with other units and cannot be traced to any specific unit. The indirect costs are then distributed to both the operational and administrative units through an internal indirect cost allocation process. For ease and convenience, operating indirect costs are budgeted and expensed in the Economic Development Management (EDM) unit. At the end of a given period, the indirect costs accumulated in the EDM unit are distributed to all operational and administrative units based on a pre-determined allocation rate. By the end of a fiscal period all direct costs would have been posted to both the operational and administrative units and all indirect costs would have been allocated from the EDM unit to both the operational and the other administrative units, thus, the total cost to operate each operational and administrative unit can be determined. The total cost (direct and indirect) for each administrative unit is indirect to the operational units and are then further allocated to the operational units using a pre-determined allocation method. By the end of a fiscal period, the total cost of operating each operational unit within the USVIEDA can be determined and so can the total cost to operate the USVIEDA, which will be the sum total of each operating cost expense. U.S. Virgin Islands Economic Development Authority – Fiscal Year 2019 U.S. Virgin Islands Economic Development Authority – Fiscal Year 2019 GOALS, OBJECTIVES, PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS, AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS Goals, objectives, performance measurements, and performance evaluations establish the strategic operational framework for the USVIEDA. A goal is the end result to be accomplished and answers this question: “What is the purpose in the big picture?” For the USVIEDA, its purpose is to help facilitate the creation of good paying jobs to improve the standard of living for residents. Objectives are the action steps taken to carry out the big picture and serve as benchmarks to measure performance. Each objective has four (4) fundamental characteristics. An objective must:  Be measurable;  Identify a target of program activity;  Set a timeframe for completion; and  Provide an expected direction of change. Performance measurement is the ongoing monitoring and reporting on program accomplishments compared to the pre-established goals and objectives as outlined by each unit. The development of performance measurements requires careful thought and planning and must include the following basic ingredients: objectivity, relevance, reliability, validity, and indicators of degrees of success. Performance Evaluations are critical, especially in periods of scarce resources, and provide a means of assessing how well a unit is performing. Evaluations answer key goal-related questions, such as: 1) Are stakeholders getting what they deserve? 2) Are taxpayers getting their money’s worth? 3) Are those we serve better off? 4) Can the service we provide be improved? The achievability of the USVIEDA’s goals and the fulfillment of objectives rest with supervisors and their subordinates, and the budget provides the financial resources to do so. The execution of performance measurement and evaluation functions in ensuring that scarce resources are used in the most efficient manner for the benefit of residents. U.S. Virgin Islands Economic Development Authority – Fiscal Year 2019 ANNUAL BUDGET CALENDAR AND PROCESSES The budget formulation process is designed to allow the USVIEDA to fulfill its mission by aligning goals, priorities, and objectives with financial resources and to evaluate actual achievements relative to anticipated outcomes. DECEMBER – JANUARY The budget formulation process begins with the development of revenue and expenditure projections for the upcoming fiscal year. These projections are presented to the USVIEDA Governing Board with comparisons and analyses of past trends (i.e. appropriations, allotments, revenues, and expenditures) in addition to other financial data to justify and support management’s budget recommendations. During this process, the USVIEDA’s Governing Board outlines its priorities, goals and objectives for the Authority for the upcoming fiscal year. This process forms the basis for the development of the budget and determines the final budget amount to be submitted to the Office of Management and Budget for consideration and inclusion in the Government of the Virgin Islands’ annual operating budget submission to the Legislature. FEBRUARY The USVIEDA’s budget staff establishes budget ceilings for each division and department consistent with the priorities, goals, and objectives as outlined by the USVIEDA Governing Board. This information is communicated to each division or department head through a budget call that provides instructions and guidance for preparing each division’s and department’s budget. The budget staff conducts budget orientation sessions with lead members of each division and department in order to provide guidance and present an overview of the budgeting priorities and to address other budgetary concerns. MARCH – APRIL The budget staff conducts budget review discussions with division and department heads on a one-on- one basis to discuss areas of concerns, goals, new initiatives, or programs each division or department desires to implement for the upcoming fiscal year. During this meeting, each division or department has the opportunity to justify its needs before the Chief Executive Officer and Assistant Chief Executive Officer/Chief Operating Officer. By the end of this process, revisions may be made to individual division or department budgets and budget schedules are updated accordingly. The final budget is presented to the USVIEDA Governing Board for consideration and approval before submission to the Legislature’s Post-Audit Division. APRIL – JUNE Communication is maintained with the Post-Audit Division as it analyzes the USVIEDA budget while at the same time the USVIEDA’s budget staff researches, gathers data and conducts round-table sessions with the internal division and department heads in preparing drafts of the Chief Executive Officer’s budget presentation to the Committee on Finance of the Legislature.

TWELVE (12) MONTHS MONITORING (OCTOBER – SEPTEMBER) Actual revenues and expenditures are monitored throughout the year and are compared and analyzed against the budget to ensure that resources are managed in accordance with the budget plan and are consistent with the goals and objectives of the Authority. At the end of each quarter, financial analyses are performed, and financial presentations are made to the Governing Board. These presentations show sources and uses of resources compared to the budget as well as comparisons within the same period the previous fiscal year. The budget staff offers recommendations to division and department heads in addition to the Governing Board to improve operational efficiencies.
