Facilities Operations
Work Information Center
The primary mission of the Work Information Center (WIC) is to provide information and support to the faculty and staff of the University concerning facility maintenance, repair and renovations. The Work Information Center relays problems to trades in a fast and efficient manner. Work Information also assigns trades for work done outside the daily repairs and maintenance.
To access the Work Information Center call 334-3456. After hours and on the weekends call Campus Police at 334-4444. You may also leave emails at workrequest@uncg.edu.
The Work Information Center generates different types of work orders. Below is a list of the four typical work orders processed:
- Correctives - Work done as part of daily operations of campus.
- Preventive Maintenance - Weekly work orders to help with the upkeep of campus and machinery.
- Special Billings - Billable work orders that are under $1000 and usually only involves one trade. Examples of this include, after hours housekeeping, construction of shelves, and assistance with activities on the weekends or evenings. This work requires a BanFin-59 form in order to be done for billing purposes.
- Projects - This is major work involving a larger scope than that of a Special Billing. Projects often involve more than one trade and sometimes outside contractors.
Work orders are generated two times a day; at 10:30am and again at 4:30pm. All
emergency work orders called in between these times are dispatched to the appropriate
trade immediately.
Work Information forwards project estimate requests to the Assistant Director for Renovations or the appropriate trades supervisor. All estimates should be sent on a Project Estimate Request Form.
Work Information forwards all work orders, after completion, to Facilities Operations accounts manager for billing purposes.
Work Information is also responsible for calling in all elevator and pest control
problems.
