Introduction
JBI conducts an Annual Review of Entity activity to evaluate Entity Key Performance Requirements in line with the JBIC Activity Matrix, in February of each year.
JBI’s Annual Review period for collaboration activities is 1st January – 31st December (calendar year).
Entities must complete and submit a ‘JBIC CoE Entity Annual Report or ’JBIC AG Entity Annual Report' to the JBI Global Engagement Office jbic@adelaide.edu.au by 31 January of each year.
For more information on JBIC Activity and Funding Matrix Guidelines, including the Annual Review, activity points accrual and funding eligibility, please refer to the JBI Collaboration Handbook.
NOTE: Funding will be changing in 2022, further information around this will be communicated to the JBIC during 2021, this space will also be updated once final decisions have been made.
**Due to COVID-19 disruptions, Entities whose legal agreements are dated pre-2020 have been given an extension of one year to meet their KPI's (both Affiliated Groups and Centres of Excellence). The Annual Review Report templates available on this site reflect the additional year, if you require an Annual Review Report template which does not include the extension (those Entities who joined in 2020 and beyond), please contact the Global Engagement Office and it will be provided to you, email jbic@adelaide.edu.au
Submission
Please read the below information carefully regarding the completion and submission of your JBIC Entity Annual Review Report:
Entities must complete all required fields in the adjacent template for those activities clearly marked in Red. All other activities will be completed by the Global Engagement Office and are locked for editing in the Annual Report Template.
If a required field for any activity is not completed it will not be processed. If you have any questions regarding the KPIs for an activity please email the JBI Global Engagement Office jbic@adelaide.edu.au prior to submitting your report.
If your Entity has not completed any of the activities marked in Red, you must still complete the first section with your Entity name and organisation information and return as outlined below.
Points will not be awarded for peer reviews conducted unless the correct Entity Affiliation has been listed in Editorial Manager (as per the JBI Collaboration Handbook). Entity Directors and Convenors are encouraged to speak with their Core Staff to ensure that their Editorial Manager reviewer profiles are up to date by 31 December.
Those Entities that have registered for JBIC Mentorship or Clinical Partnership Engagement will receive an email from the Global Engagement Office by 22 December with links to the relevant evaluation and progress reports.
Annual Reports must be submitted via email to jbic@adelaide.edu.au no later than 31 January. A reminder that reports which are not submitted by 31 January will not be accepted. Reports will be completed by the Global Engagement Office with data available to JBI. This may affect funding eligibility.
Extensions may be granted in extenuating circumstances. If you are unable to meet the deadline, please make a request by email to jbic@adelaide.edu.au by 20 December. Once received, the GEO will review the information provided and complete the Annual Report for each Entity, and return via email by the beginning of March.
Entities will then be asked to review their final Annual Report before the GEO issues any invoices for eligible funding for activities/output
