POLICY REGARDING MODIFICATIONS TO LABORATORY INFRASTRUCTURE:
Bigelow requires executive management approval for any modifications to the main laboratory building and/or other campus buildings to include changes to office layout, movements of fixtures including lab benches, and installation of new fixtures or modifications to space layouts. This is the same policy for individual or shared space areas.
PROCEDURE:
To request an infrastructure change please fill out the online form that will be reviewed by the President and CEO, the Facilities Director, and the VPR for approval of the request. Please provide a description of the change, the rationale for the change, how much the modification may cost, and how you propose it should be paid for. Additionally, please include a statement on how the modification may impact other users and information on alternatives, if available. For minor changes, no need to make it complicated. Management's goal is to facilitate timely evaluation and decisions while providing better oversight of requests. If approved, the facilities team will work diligently to fulfill the request timely.
