Efficiency and Effectiveness. The University of Aberdeen is committed to improving its efficiency and effectiveness and we strive to explore and exploit opportunities as they arise, as evidenced by the following case studies in the Universities Scotland publication “Working Smarter”: Cross-sector shared facilities with community benefit: Aberdeen Sports Village, which was developed through a partnership between the University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen City Council and sportScotland. The second phase of this project, the Aquatics Centre, is due for completion in 2014. Business process improvement (1): the consolidation of our printing and photocopying services has led to annual savings of £330,000, with additional savings from reduced energy costs. Business process improvement (2): server virtualisation was introduced into the University of Aberdeen data centres in order to optimise utilisation of physical hardware, reduce per server energy consumption and reduce data centre space requirements. Over 40% of the server inventory was virtualised in the course of 2011-12, creating savings of £270,000 in that year alone. The aim is to reach 80% virtualisation by the end of 2013-14, generating savings of £690,000 per annum. All of this was implemented as part of the recurrent hardware replacement programme and therefore at no additional cost.
