The University awarded a contract for elevator repair.
This emergency/quick purchase was required due to a situation in which
immediate action was needed to prevent any disruption in University services
The hydraulic cylinder in the Trueblood dining hall failed; therefore, a new jack cylinder is needed to restore the elevator service. The affected elevator is the sole elevator in the building and is essential for ADA compliance. To ensure due diligence, the University obtained two proposals to determine a reasonable cost analysis. A proposal was chosen based on cost and repair schedules to minimize disruption of services affecting public safety.
