Case Study: SUNY New Paltz achieves streamlined document control and faster project closeouts with Oracle Primavera Submittal Exchange Cloud Service

SUNY Paltz and Primavera Submittal Exchange Cloud Service

SUNY New Paltz’s Facilities department is managing a roughly $300 million, eight‑year construction program to modernize campus facilities and attract a broader student pool. With a 12‑person team overseeing up to 30 active projects and 50 in backlog, reliance on email, paper and FTP for submittals led to lost or delayed documents, heavy manual tracking, and limited capacity to start new projects.

By adopting Primavera Submittal Exchange Cloud Service, the team gained immediate access to submittals, automated contractor notifications, clear submission specs, and rapid closeouts—making large file sharing and photo categorization instantaneous. The result was faster workflows, improved contractor compliance and satisfaction, reduced dependence on consultants, and increased capacity to move projects forward.
