The process for these types of projects has changed several times over the past few years, and with the organization of the academic division into faculties, it has become even less clear than it was. If you have a project and are not sure if it should be a maintenance issue, please check with us. If it is work that does require funding from another source, we can prepare estimates so that your department chair can evaluate the request and probable cost. The chair would then discuss it with the associate dean of your faculty. Some of these projects will eventually become part of the capital budget, and capital projects within the academic division are prioitized for funding by the dean’s council.
We need the name of the department, the contact person’s name, the location of the proposed work, and a brief description of the work. If there is equipment involved we will need technical specifications as soon as possible so that all of the utility implications are in up front.
