Offices
Facilities Management & Planning maintains administrative offices throughout the Charles River Campus to ensure a clean, safe, and productive working environment. We manage recycling and document shredding services as well as trash removal, and perform routine and emergency repairs. We support you with set-up for small events, small furniture moves, installation of whiteboards, and more. We’re also your first stop if you’re thinking of renovations or major changes to furniture and office design.
