Major Repair and Renovation (MRR)

The University System of Georgia owns and manages over 43.6 million square feet of instructional space, much of which was constructed prior to 1970 and thus suffers from age, weather, excessive use, and technological obsolescence. Major Repair and Renovation (MRR) funds, which are requested annually, help preserve the value, integrity, and effectiveness of this extensive physical inventory.

The institutions use MRR funding for projects that involve major repair, replacement, or renovation of critical building systems, site components and infrastructure. MRR funding works in conjunction with maintenance and operations (M & O) funding and capital funding (for large or comprehensive renovation projects) to fulfill the USG institutions' overall physical inventory stewardship responsibilities and protect the State of Georgia's investment in higher education facilities.
