GeoSIMS

SIMS is the University of Washington’s Space Inventory Management System. The space inventory database is used by the Office of Planning & Budgeting to track the assignment and utilization of space for the UW. The assignment and utilization information we collect is used for reporting and decision management. The University is required to report annually to state and federal agencies on its utilization of space.

GeoSIMS is the application used to view and update space inventory data, and has three components:
