Texas Tech University
Expands Use of TMA to Physical Plant
PRESS RELEASE. TULSA, OK, July 15, 2009 – As a result of the
continued benefits being realized by Texas Tech University, it was
recently announced that the Physical Plant Department will
implement TMA Enterprise as its Computerized Maintenance
Management System (CMMS). TMA Systems and Texas Tech determined
that TMA Enterprise would be the perfect fit for the many campus
wide locations being served by the Physical Plant.
The
Physical Plant Department saw what the Housing Department has been
able to accomplish with their use of TMA Enterprise and made the
decision to implement this state-of-the-art CMMS. By using TMA,
the entire campus will have a system that can help manage all of
their maintenance duties and keep the University operating at its
highest capacity.
John
C. Smith, Chief Executive Officer of TMA Systems, stated, “Our
longstanding and successful relationship with Texas Tech
University proved that TMA could effectively perform the job for
their Physical Plant Department. We appreciate their confidence in
our organization.”

instruction did not begin until 1927 within the school of Liberal
Arts. A “Division of Graduate Studies” was established in 1935 and
eventually became known as the Graduate School in 1954. By action
of the Texas State Legislature, Texas Technological College
formally became Texas Tech University on September 1, 1969.
