  • Ready Space is the university’s online space inventory verification system. It allows departments to review and confirm information about the rooms they occupy, such as offices, labs, workspaces, and support areas.

    The system helps ensure that the university maintains an accurate record of how campus space is assigned and used.

  • Maintaining an accurate space inventory helps the university:

    • Support strategic planning and future campus growth
    • Identify opportunities to utilize existing space better
    • Ensure accurate reporting to state and federal agencies
    • Improve transparency and equity in space assignments
    • Support renovation and capital planning decisions

    Your participation helps ensure that campus space data reflects current use.

  • Each department or unit has a designated Space Representative responsible for reviewing the spaces assigned to their department.

    If you are unsure who your department’s representative is, please contact your department leadership or the Space Management Office.

  • Departments will be asked to verify information for spaces such as:

    • Offices
    • Laboratories
    • Conference and meeting rooms
    • Workspaces and cubicles
    • Storage areas
    • Support spaces

    Not all departments will have every type of space.

  • The survey may ask you to confirm information such as:

    • Room occupants
    • Department assignment
    • Room function or use
    • Workstation counts or capacity
    • Shared space arrangements

    In some cases, you may be asked to update information if the current record is no longer accurate.

  • You will have the opportunity to update or correct the information directly within the survey.

    If you encounter an issue that cannot be corrected in the system, please contact The Office of University Space Management for assistance.

  • Please update the information in Ready Space to reflect the current use of the space. If the change occurred very recently and does not appear in the system yet, note the change in the survey comments or contact The Office of University Space Management.

  • Departments are asked to complete their Ready Space verification within 30 days of opening of survey.

    Submitting the survey by the deadline helps ensure the university maintains an accurate and current space inventory.
