Additional responsibilities include direct management of the central administration building Levi Hall, oversight of auxiliary entities including the David Rubenstein Forum and the Quad Club, and integration with academic space planning.

Approximately 300 employees in Facilities Services are responsible for supporting the academic mission of the campus through securing and maintaining the viability and integrity of the physical campus via: capital project delivery; facilities operations; finance and business services; and campus planning and sustainability.

Information Technology Services (ITS):

The VPOs technology infrastructure portfolio includes the Universitys central Information Technology Services (ITS) organization.

ITS ensures sustained innovation, security, and reliability in the delivery of information technology systems and services that support the academic, research and administrative excellence of the University.

The organization employs some 300 staff to support IT architecture, integration and security; enterprise applications and services; academic and scholarly technology services; emerging technologies and communications; web services; administrative services; cybersecurity, and shared services and infrastructure.


Human Resources:

The VPO also provides executive oversight for the Universitys central human resources organization, involving all aspects of the centralized element of a broader decentralized human resources delivery system for the University including staff recruitment, benefits, compensation, performance management, staff development, leadership development, employee and labor relations, HR information systems, and union negotiations.

Approximately 40 human resource professionals are in the central unit.
