Effective October 1, 2025: Updated FY'26 Service Fees

Posted on September 26, 2025

Dear Core Users:

After consultation with MGB Research Finance Management, our FY'26 service fee structure has now been finalized and will go into effect as of October 1, 2025.

These fees support our continuous process improvement efforts and the implementation of additional and/or improved service features. The changes are mandated by Mass General Brigham policies, which dictate that cores recover their operating costs without generating excess revenue.

All orders that begin processing in September but complete on or after October 1, 2025, will be invoiced at current FY'25 pricing. Orders that are placed close to the end of September but are not processed before October 1, 2025, will be invoiced according to the updated FY'26 pricing structure.

We appreciate your past patronage and look forward to serving your future research needs.

Sincerely,
The CCIB DNA Core Team
