The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) has embarked on a dynamic journey into data awareness, uncovering the power of utilization data to drive smarter decision-making and operational efficiencies. By leveraging insights from its space database and reservation system, UTSA identified significant opportunities to optimize campus resources—ultimately saving $3 million in lease expenses. What began as a strategic initiative to enhance space management has evolved into a broader partnership with Degree Analytics, enabling UTSA to gain deeper insights into campus utilization patterns. This panel will explore how UTSA’s commitment to data-driven strategies transformed its approach to resource allocation, leading to more informed campus planning decisions and substantial cost savings. By integrating Degree Analytics’ advanced tools, UTSA has expanded its ability to monitor real-time space utilization, revealing discrepancies between scheduled occupancy and actual usage. These discoveries have empowered UTSA to refine its space management practices, unlocking previously overlooked efficiencies. Now, UTSA is taking this data-informed approach beyond space allocation, collaborating with university stakeholders to share insights and extend cost-saving strategies across university divisions. Attendees will gain a firsthand look at how UTSA’s experience demonstrates the potential of utilization data to reduce expenses, enhance campus operations, and create sustainable growth—offering a scalable model for universities seeking to maximize their existing resources while fostering collaboration and innovation.
