The Risk Control section works with The University of Texas' property insurer to coordinate loss prevention surveys. These include surveys of property protection installations such as sprinklers and fire alarms and an analysis of an institution's management programs and how they are implemented to respond to various emergencies such as a fire, flood or power outage.
The property loss prevention surveys and the management program ratings are compiled into a risk rating score which is a factor in premium allocation. Since implemented in 2006, thirty-nine campus-wide property loss prevention surveys and seventy plan reviews have been completed.
