The Capitol Preservation Board manages the day-to-day operations of the Capitol building, the East and West buildings, the State Office Building, the Daughters of Utah Pioneers Museum, the Travel Council Building, and the White Chapel. Grounds maintenance and facility management are provided through a contract with the State Division of Facilities Construction and Management (DFCM).

The Capitol Preservation Board oversaw the restoration of the State Capitol which was completed January 2008. Since then, CPB has been focused on serving visitors by providing web-based scheduling, trained docents, communications and parking information. CPB also organizes special events through the year.
