Understanding CPMS

UCR’s CPMS has been designed to meet evolving campus business system requirements in support of capital planning, design, construction, and maintenance. The system features the following capabilities:

• Common Verbiage and Definitions (the CPMS defines each request type and provides examples for the types of projects that should be submitted for review).
• Common Planning and Approval Processes (all CPMS requests follow a routing and approval process that is defined below on the CPMS process flow diagram).
• Tightly Integrated, Seamless Service (CPMS is integrated with the Physical Plant Work Order system; please see the Physical Plant Integration Section of this web site).
• Transparent Project Scope, Timeline, and Funding Sources & Requirements (all CMPS requests include a funding / budget section and are available for review via query tools and reports).
