Roundtable

For Facilities Leaders: A Conversation on Cost Containment

As institutions face tightening budgets and uncertainty about future revenues, campus leaders are seeking opportunities to mitigate unnecessary costs and increase financial efficiency across every part of the enterprise, and the Facilities function is no exception. Facilities leaders remain under continued pressure to move the needle on evergreen challenges like reducing deferred maintenance backlogs, decreasing energy consumption, optimizing space utilization, and maximizing the value (and savings potential) of outsourcing and public-private partnerships.

Roundtable

Building a Financially Resilient Institution

Join us to discover strategies for regional institutions to leverage in the short-term and long-term to address financial literacy and cultural readiness. We will share higher ed realities and strategies to activate on campus to build a financially resilient institution. This session will also focus on how to strengthen stakeholder recognition of institutional finances.
