Research Space Utilization Metrics: Putting Them to Work for You

By: Greg Aldridge, Sr. Lab Planner | Erik Halle, Senior Director, Knowledge Enterprise Operations | Stan Klonowski, Associate Director

The cost of building and operating research space continues to increase alongside the profile of these spaces on campus.
Abstract: The cost of building and operating research space continues to increase alongside the profile of these spaces on campus. Space management practices can help to enhance institutional reputation by growing research on a more affordable and sustainable basis. This session will examine Arizona State University's (ASU) process of managing research space in new and existing buildings, the research funding and facilities ecosystem, common metrics for productivity, and justifications for space management. We'll provide data-driven insight into ASU's implementation, ideas for translating the process to your institution, and justification for implementing our research space management and optimization practices.
