Financial Services

The Asset Management team is responsible identifying and accounting for all university's capitalized assets and small value equipment according to the rules and regulations of the University System of Georgia (USG) and the Department of Administrative Services (DOAS). We ensure that purchases, dispositions, and transfers are made in accordance with university requirements, applicable state and federal laws, and any other statutory guidelines for the effective management of tangible, movable equipment in the custody of the university.

Our asset management responsibilities also involve inventory control, which includes overseeing a centralized perpetual inventory system that complies with state law; providing reporting for insurance purposes; and maintaining internal control of assets. We ensure that all non-consumable and non-expendable equipment having a life expectancy of three or more years, and an item acquisition greater than or equal to $3,000 in cost is properly tagged and recorded. We are also responsible for coordinating a periodic physical equipment inventory on a yearly basis with Department Inventory Custodians.
