Design and Construction Projects
Facilities Planning and Operations is committed to providing the highest quality architectural, engineering, planning, project management, cost control, and construction related services. Through our professional and technical skills we strive to advance the university’s infrastructure and physical appearance supporting the teaching, learning and research environment at University of Central Missouri. Our department directly manages a wide array of proposals to include capital, renovation, and improvement projects for existing buildings, oversees all aspects of the construction of new facilities, and ensures that the highest standards are maintained.
Design and Construction Projects include, but are not limited to:
- New Construction refers to site preparation for, and construction of, entirely new structures and/or significant extensions to existing structures.
- Construction Improvements are operations which usually require more than one fiscal year to complete, and which change or add to the characteristics of a road, facility, or structure.
- Renovation refers to restoring something to a good state of repair. To renovate a building means
to resurrect that structure from a state of disrepair. Renovations can often be smaller,
such as improving the existing building, or larger, such as a construction renovation
or major replacement.
- Construction Renovation refers to restoring or repairing an existing structure by replacing the old with the new.
- Space Allocation is the process of assigning placements of your organizational units (business unit, division, department.) within the university’s current or future space. The planning exercise indicates if your current assigned space can efficiently accommodate your needs or if a space reduction or expansion is required.
- Remodel refers to changing the structure or form of something. Remodels generally change the appearance, structure, or function of an area while improving or transforming the existing design or layout
