Capital Project Management & Accounting (CPMA)

What is CPMA?

Design and Construction Management (DCM) manages its projects and the costs associated with them using a constellation of software programs called the Capital Project Management and Accounting (CPMA) system . Collectively these software systems track costs and funding, facilitate coordination during construction administration and allow us to communicate with our internal and external partners. 

Transition to e-Builder

Although DCM was an early adopter of digital project management, several systems within CPMA have been in need of modernization and consolidation. Over the next few months we will be sunsetting our existing Prism and Spitfire systems and unveiling our new e-Builder system. 

DCM chose e-Builder because it has a robust financial module, efficient construction administration, comprehensive project controls, and in-depth project and executive level reporting. We believe it will make our project management more efficient, transparent and secure allowing us to deliver new, high-quality buildings and transform existing facilities and infrastructure on the largest campus in the UC system.
