Facilities Management and Construction
Introduction
The Facilities Management and Construction (FMC) team is proud to support the University of Houston-Clear Lake campus by creating an environment that allows our students, faculty, and staff to thrive. Our goal is to provide safe, accessible, reliable, and clean spaces through high quality maintenance, operation, planning, and renovation services for our 524 acre Clear Lake campus, Pearland campus, and our space at the Texas Medical Center.
Over 80 FMC employees ensure that all of the campus facilities are both operationally and aesthetically at their best to help the university meet its educational mission.
Whether it is one of the more visible employees often seen mowing the lawn, mopping the floor or painting the walls, or one of our behind-the-scenes employees that maintain building equipment, FMC employees are instrumental in creating a positive impression of UHCL to every customer, from the prospective student on campus for the first time to the faculty or staff member that has been here for decades.
We diligently strive to provide excellent customer service and ask you, our customer, to help us identify areas for improvement or suggest additional services you would like FMC to provide. FMC Work Request Form is available as an alternate option for FAMIS.
