SAO Manual

 

The SAO Manual | 2011 – A Management Guide for Ohio Capital Improvements

The SAO Manual outlines the procedures used by the State Architect's Office (SAO) to manage capital projects. It also details standard office procedures associated with the day-to-day operation of SAO.

Each section of the Manual describes the current practices and procedures required to undertake and successfully complete captial projects for Ohio agencies.

The Manual is subdivided into sections, which are numbered and titled to correspond to the coding system, which SAO uses to identify project activities for naming and filing of documents. 

In addition, guidance and instructions for processes using OAKS Capital Improvements (OAKS CI), the state's web-based project management system, are included in each section side-by-side with the traditional paper processes.
