The Operations & Facilities Management Department (OFMD) has developed and implemented a project delivery process to serve as a roadmap for successful cost, schedule and quality performance on projects. Processes have been documented and supporting tools created to:

  • Enable the Operations & Facilities Management Department to provide high quality service to its customers, stakeholders and the University.
  • Provide a balanced, systematic approach to planning and delivering construction/renovation projects.
  • Incorporate planning/project management best practices.
