Asset Management

Asset Management is responsible for the recording, inventorying and reporting of all capital plant assets of the University. This includes land, buildings, improvements other than buildings (infrastructure) and equipment. We also maintain equipment inventory and facility files in SIMBA. Asset Management prepares and submits Government Property Reports. We act as the primary interface with Government on all Government Furnished, Acquired or Owned Equipment. We also act as the liaison with property auditors and provide guidance to departments, faculty and staff regarding issues related to property administration and government property regulations.
