June 2017 Board Financial Summary

June 2017 Summary Balance Sheet

OWASP Foundation is managed by the Operations Director who provides a monthly roll-up report in collaboration of all staff members, contractors and efforts being manged by the back office team. A link to the monthly operational report can be found here: REPORT

OLD BUSINESS
  • Board Vice Chairperson - Are we moving forward with an official vote on a Board Vice Chairperson to replace Johanna Curiel - Dawn Aitken
NEW BUSINESS
  • Proposed: Adjust approval processes to meet operational needs as outlined below. [Matt Tesauro] Also supported by Matt Konda.
    • Remove board approval for any expense that meets any one of the criteria below
      • Reimbursement from chapter/project funds which have a sufficient balance
      • Routine expenses who already have budget allocated e.x. Mobile phone bill
      • Expenses under $20k which O&A Committee have approved and are already budgeted
      • Payroll expenses that
        • Are the same as the past month’s salary (e.g. same as always) since
          • For salaried staff, payroll expense is fixed
          • For hourly staff, hours will be approved by Matt Tesauro
      • Board must approve any changes to payroll outside the above conditions

Since the board has already voted for budgeted, normal expenses and we WANT the community to spend down any chapter/project funds, I don't see benefit in the board re-approving the actual pend on the categories above.

Benefit: Allow payables to be handled more efficiently and in a stream-lined fashion for routine and already budgeted items so that the board is removed from day-to-day operational issues.

  • Update on the status of the ED search
    • Staff are getting questions about when the position will be posted - would like to provide those that ask an answer. [Matt Tesauro]
    • Update from Scion
  • Update on AppSecUSA
  • Plan for replacing Operations Director (aka Kate) [Matt Tesauro]
    • What is the timeline/plans to hire a new Operations Director? Staff are getting asked this by the community and would like to provide an answer when asked.
