How long will it take for my request to be resolved?

The purpose of the Service Requests Priority Guidelines are to:

  • Provide a system to prioritize the use of limited staff and financial resources.
  • Provide equitable treatment to all customers.
  • Allow the orderly, timely and efficient accomplishment of facilities work.

When work is received it is assigned to one of five priority levels. Within each priority level work is assigned primarily on a first-in, first-out basis, subject to coordination of work and availability of time, materials and human resources. As requests are received, they will be scheduled according to the following priorities.

Emergency

Emergencies will be addressed as soon as possible. Examples are failure in electrical power, a break in the water line, lock failure, personal safety, etc. Emergencies should be called in to the Facilities Management Service Center at (269) 387-8514.

Same-day service

This refers to failures that impair but do not render inoperative and will normally be accomplished within 24 hours.

10-day service

This service is considered a higher priority routine work. All routine work is scheduled depending on the availability of the trades persons and materials involved. Our objective is to complete the request in 10 working days.

30-day service

This service is considered a lower priority routine work. Labor and material availability place work in this category. Our objective is to complete the request in 30 working days.

Deferred work

While every attempt is made to accomplish all work in a timely manner, there are times when maintenance must be deferred. The requesting department or individual will be notified of the reasons for the delay. The understanding of the occupants affected in these cases is greatly appreciated.

Will I have to pay for the repairs I have requested?
