Capital Planning & Development (CP&D) is responsible for the facilities capital program including development of capital plans and project business cases for government funding, preparation of project approval requests to UBC Executive and Board of Governors, and governance of major building projects and the routine capital facilities renewal program.
CP&D liaises with the BC Ministry of Post-Secondary Education & Future Skills (PSFS) and UBC faculty and senior administration to develop multi-year capital plans for academic buildings and building system upgrade projects. The project cost estimates produced through this process determine the overall funding requirements for the construction, refit, and replacement of campus buildings and infrastructure.
Capital Planning also promotes and coordinates building renewal projects. This initiative works to reinvigorate existing buildings as needed to meet current construction standards and the needs of UBC’s academic community.
