Case Study: Seattle Pacific University improves classroom scheduling and space utilization with Gordian

Seattle Pacific University improves space utilization by over 30% with Gordian

Seattle Pacific University faced a growing demand for academic space and uncertainty around its classroom scheduling and configurations. They enlisted Gordian to conduct a space utilization analysis and facilities assessment to determine how effectively their teaching spaces were being used and how their conditions compared to peer institutions.

Gordian's solution involved comprehensive field assessments, focus groups, and a review of scheduling data. This led to recommendations for changes in the scheduling process and classroom renovations. As a result, Seattle Pacific University saw a space utilization improvement of over 30%, made more efficient use of funds by aligning renovations with deferred maintenance needs and created a less burdensome scheduling process for faculty and administration.
