Every campus asset, from capital ledger to surplus store

Capital assets, grant-funded equipment, labs, IT, facilities, and surplus do not all live in one office.

Universities and colleges answer for assets across finance, sponsored research, departments, labs, facilities, and surplus programs. AssetMaxx keeps the record clear: what the institution owns, where it is, how it was funded, who is responsible, and what happens when it moves or leaves service.

Education: Higher Education Hero

Start with the office that owns the record

Capital assets, grants, surplus, and facilities each sit with a different office on campus. Find yours below.

Finance and the Controller's Office

Capital-asset records, depreciation, and audit-ready reporting for the accounting office.

Sponsored Research and Grants

Track and reconcile federally funded and grant-funded equipment so custody holds up under the single audit.

Surplus and Property Management

Move idle and retired equipment into resale, donation, or disposal, with value recovered.

Facilities and Plant Operations

Maintenance, work orders, and cost across campus buildings and systems.

The questions each office has to answer

These questions land with the controller, grant administrators, surplus, and facilities. AssetMaxx maps each record to the product built for it.

Can the accounting office defend the capital-asset record?

What happens to equipment a department no longer needs?

How do you keep campus buildings and systems running, and account for the cost?

Assetmaxx Logo - 4Site

Maintenance, work orders, parts, and the deferred-maintenance backlog, tracked by building.

Keep your ERP. Add the campus asset detail it may not capture.

Grant dollars may sit in finance, but the equipment sits across labs, IT, and departments. AssetMaxx supports the campus asset record around the ledger: grant-equipment custody, movement, physical verification, audit history, maintenance activity, and surplus status. Add an AssetMaxx product as work crosses from accounting to sponsored research to surplus.
