We leverage various technologies and applications to manage the data, information, workflows and visualizations necessary for planning, mapping, building, powering, maintaining and operating a 21st century university campus.  In addition to the centralized IT support we receive from UVM Enterprise Technology Services, several facilities-specific applications are maintained within Facilities Management units themselves.

Our facilities information management ecosystem is maintained by different staff members located in different departmental units.  As we evolve as an organization, we are continuously exploring new ways to collaborate by sharing data, staff expertise, and technology solutions with one another and across our FM units.
