Planning, Design & Construction

The PDC Playbook

The PDC Playbook serves as a standardized procedural handbook for Planning, Design and Construction staff on the project life cycle from conception to completion. It clearly identifies the roles and responsibilities of team members and describes the tasks, deliverables, and approvals that are expected for each of the project phases. Its guidance fosters consistency in project delivery and ensures compliance with University policies and procedures and regulations set by the Office of the State Engineers. Additionally, its purpose is to serve as an educational tool for Clemson University customer groups and stakeholders.

Our Planning group explores future additions to campus and champions our Long-Range Framework Plan. Design & Construction focuses on new capital construction and renovations to campus. Our Space Management group assists customers in taking full advantage of existing spaces.

Continuous Improvement

The University Facilities vision is to continuously improve to become Clemson's Premier Service Team and work environment. PDC strives for excellence and efficiency in outstanding project delivery to our customers. Through collaboration with staff and project stakeholders, we will utilize the PDC Improvement Request to consider input for future enhancements to this Playbook.
