8.2. Running Maintenance

Definition

Routine Maintenance: Work that must be done to keep building systems, campus areas, and equipment operating in an efficient manner.

Examples are:

  1. Replacement of burned out lights and ballasts.
  2. Repair of broken stair treads and windows, inoperative door locks, light switches and outlets, parking gates and parking meters, plumbing leaks, equipment such as compressors, feed pumps, power scrubbers, and office and classroom furniture.
  3. Maintenance of roads, grounds, walks, and signs.
  4. Snow removal and sanding.
  5. Belt tightening, water treatment, control adjustment, lubrication, and filter changing.

Procedure

All non-emergency facilities repair and service requests go through our online work order system (https://www.mtu.edu/facilities/requests/repairs/). Please do not call in requests unless it is an emergency. NOTE: The cost for the majority of routine maintenance service is covered by Facilities Management funding; however, Facilities Management may assess financial charges associated with repairs to items such as office or laboratory furniture or equipment will be charged to the requesting department.
