AU Project Prioritization Process (FY09)

SUMMARY OF THE PRIORITIZATION PROCESS TO DATE: AUGUST 26, 2009

Academic Units

Step 1: Project Submission:  In May 2009, the Project Originators inputted a maximum of 10 projects in priority order into the Priority System.  Each project was assigned a number of points based on the priority of the project from the Project Originator, with 30 points being given to the #1 project.

Step 2: Building Condition Assessment:  In June 2009, after receiving the submitted projects, the Facilities Division completed an assessment of the building condition or space requirement for each project and scored them with a maximum of 30 points given to any project.

Step 3: Provost Prioritization:  In August 2009, the Provost Prioritization Committee, consisting of Dr. Mary Ellen Mazey, Dr. J. Emmett Winn, and Dr. Kathryn Flynn assessed each project and scored them with a maximum of 40 points.

Non-Academic Units

Step 1: Project Submission:  In May 2009, the Project Originators/Sponsors inputted a maximum of 20 projects in priority order into the Priority System. Based on their priorities, each project was assigned a certain number of points, out of a total of 70 points. 

Step 2: Building Condition Assessment:  After receiving the submitted projects, the Facilities Division completed an assessment of the building condition or space requirement for each project and scored them with a maximum of 30 points given to any project.

Step 3: Not applicable for Non-Academic projects.
