On an annual basis, in mid-August, University Operations calls for capital improvement project requests from each Vice President (VP) or Provost. The Planning and Projects Department will review all capital improvement project requests and, working with VPs/Provost, develop the approved fiscal year capital project list. Off-cycle project requests follow the same submittal process and will be reviewed as received. They are subject to available funding and priorities.
Each VP will gather and prioritize their unit's requests and forward them to the Planning and Projects Department for evaluation. Requests will be considered within the context of all submitted requests and resources available. The Planning and Projects Department will respond to requests from each VP/Provost unit and will investigate and price those projects to determine feasibility and consideration for approval. Project requests not submitted by VPs/Provost will not be considered.
The following information will be needed with each project submission:
- Description and justification of the project
- Alignment with SCU Strategic Plan
- Desired project timing
- Project prioritization
- Prioritization justification
- Identification of potential funding sources such as grants, gifts, etc.
