Chargeable Work Orders
Definition and Examples
Chargeable work orders are departmental requests for non-routine maintenance where
the requesting department is responsible for expenses. All material costs associated
with these work orders will be charged to the individual department. Whether or not
labor will be charged is determined by the type of work requested. If a work request
is deemed to be a chargeable work order, the department will be notified prior to
any work being done. Facilities Management will provide a cost estimate by request.
If Facilities Management cannot accommodate your request due to limited resources,
you will be asked to complete the Project Request Form. Please contact Facilities
Management at 986-4918 if you would like confirmation as to whether labor will be
charged.
