Capital and Facilities Planning

The Capital Facilities and Planning division, within Finance and Administration, is committed to wise stewardship of Oregon University System's physical assets, worth over $3.7 billion. The department is responsible for management of and advocacy for construction, maintenance, and sustainability of campus facilities and subsystems. For information on contract and bidding opportunities with OUS and policies on procurement, please go to the Doing Business with OUS page and sections.
The Capital Facilities and Planning division manages bids and contractors, tracks and prioritizes deferred maintenance projects, advocates for legislative funding for system facilities, coordinates efforts with other state and federal agencies such as FEMA and DOGAMI, and addresses system-wide capital construction initiatives. The division works closely with Contracts and Purchasing, campus facilities, and campus finance departments to coordinate system efforts. The Associate Vice Chancellor for Capital Programs regularly reports to the Chancellor and to the State Board of Higher Education.
