Welcome to Facilities Management at Dillard University. Facilities Management is a service organization of skilled technicians, craftsmen, operators, and support staff charged with the responsibility for operating, maintaining, and improving University buildings, grounds, utilities, and related services. While our principle hours of operation are 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, we maintain a 24-hour presence on campus to respond to emergencies and requirements that arise after normal working hours. We take great pride in ensuring that students, staff, and faculty members at Dillard University enjoy a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for living, learning, and working.
Mission The mission of Dillard University’s facilities department is to build and maintain, at reasonable costs, safe and user-friendly facilities which allow individuals to achieve the mission and goals of the University, as they interact socially within healthy living-learning environments. Facilities & Planning Vision Facilities & Planning Vision The Dillard University campus is a 52-acre, walker’s delight. The footprint of the campus is well designed, carefully planned, and landscaped for easy and safe access. Viewed by passersby, its black wrought-iron gates and gleaming white buildings on spacious green grounds, provide a stately, dignified image of a classic institution of higher learning. Viewed from inside its gates, Dillard’s academic and campus life facilities incorporate the latest technologies to enhance teaching, learning, and applied academic research. Both indoor and outdoor recreational facilities abound within a environment of wireless Internet technology and safety monitoring and alert systems. University residents and commuters enjoy close proximity and secured access to a college-town complex of retail outlets which have the look and feel of a well-planned and maintained urban development. Customer Service IF YOU'RE NOT GETTING RESULTS, CALL US! The success of Facilities Management in providing the services outlined on the following pages depends on a strong communications network within the University community. To strengthen this network, each department is encouraged to appoint an individual to represent its respective area. Operations supervisors and managers are responsible for the delivery of Facilities' services to the campus and are the primary liaisons, who provide for and often expedite the delivery of these services to the University community. These supervisors are the main contact between the appointed departmental coordinator/liaison and Facilities Management. They also identify, report, and follow up on building problems by conducting tours in buildings for quality control and by defining conditions that require remedial action. Managers and supervisors can also help you when a service request or maintenance item is not being addressed in a timely manner or when it has a high priority. They also facilitate the information flow by clarifying policies and procedures for services. You can reach your operations supervisor by calling: 504-816-4259
