Routine Work orders for immediate tasks that do not pose a threat to life, property, research or of serious disruption to the operation of the University are regarded as Routine Work Orders. These requests are put in the job queue and are processed in the order in which they are received. Small repairs are normally done within 10 days of being put into the job queue, but availability of materials and unforeseen problems could delay completion. Jobs related to specific events require adequate lead time to be completed on the date requested. A computerized preventive maintenance program produces more than 6000 work orders per year.
Work orders are for scheduled inspections, service, and replacement of equipment.
