Construction
Investing in the Future of Our Campus
Several capital projects are underway at Western to support the university’s strategic growth, creating spaces and infrastructure that enable greater impact through research, teaching and learning.
Construction is necessary to support long-term improvements. Many projects involve renewing infrastructure, improving campus facilities and preparing for future growth, helping ensure the university can meet the needs of students, faculty and staff for years to come.
We are working to minimize disruption wherever possible. Our Facilities Management team diligently coordinates construction activities and, when practical, completes related infrastructure upgrades at the same time. This approach helps reduce impacts on the campus community.
Project Management
The Facilities Development & Engineering Project Management team is responsible for administering all aspects of a construction project, from inception to completion. This is accomplished through a thorough communication strategy at all levels within the campus community, consultants, contractors, Facilities Management staff, other administrative units, and various approval bodies.
As the primary University project representative, the Project Manager is accountable for the timely completion of the detailed design and for maintaining the project on schedule and budget.
Project Estimates
Almost all renovation and new construction at Western University begins with a request for a budget estimate through Facilities Engineering and the department’s Estimator. Requests vary from small to large scopes; simple to very complex. Learn more about the Estimate Process.
