Every task we perform supports the safety, comfort, and productivity of our students, staff, and faculty—because when we take care of the infrastructure, you can focus on your future.

Asset and Space Management

Asset & Space Management

We manage more than assets—we manage accountability. From tracking every capital asset to maintaining up-to-date building records and reporting to state and federal agencies, the Asset Manager ensures compliance, accuracy, and transparency. This department plays a vital role in how NSU maximizes space utilization, supports maintenance operations, and meets Louisiana state standards. Every data point we manage ultimately supports better decision-making, smarter campus development, and improved student services.
