268 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [June 16 Hahn, Mr. Howard, Mr. Madden, Mrs. Shepherd, Mr. Stone; no, none; absent, Mr. Logan, Governor Thompson. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Bandala, Mr. Cobb; no, none; absent, Miss Forsyth.) Employment of Hospital Consultant, Chicago (26) The chancellor at Chicago has recommended the employment of Peat, Marwick, Mitchell & Company to assist the staff of the University Hospital in four areas: revenue maximization, productivity increases and cost containment, longrange strategic planning, and information systems planning. T h e specialized knowledge and expertise of the firm is sought in order to carry out these necessary tasks in a timely and effective fashion. Peat, Marwick, Mitchell & Company is one of the leading consultants in the field, and has assisted other academic health sciences centers in similar tasks. T h e director of the Hospital is confident that the cost of the contract will be returned to the Hospital several times over in enhanced collections and expenditure savings. Employment of full-time personnel with such specialized knowledge and expertise would not be cost-effective. T h e proposed contract, in an amount not to exceed $950,000, is for the period July 1, 1983 through June 30, 1984. Funds for the contract will be included in the FY 1984 Restricted Funds operating budget of the Hospital, and will come from the Hospital Income Fund. The contract is subject to the availability of such funds. The vice president for business and finance recommends approval. I concur. On motion of Mr. Madden, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Day, Dr. Donoghue, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Howard, Mr. Madden, Mrs. Shepherd, Mr. Stone; no, none; absent, Mr. Logan, Governor Thompson. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Bandala, Mr. Cobb; no, none; absent, Miss Forsyth.) Contract for Relamping of Lighting Fixtures, Chicago (27) The president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends the award of a contract, subject to the availability of funds, for $224,000, to Planned Lighting, Inc., Chicago, and Imperial Lighting Maintenance Company, Chicago, a joint venture, the only bidder on its base bid plus acceptance of Additive Alternates Nos. 1 and 2, for the relamping of lighting fixtures in selected buildings at the Chicago campus during Fiscal Year 1984. The base b;d includes group relamping and washing in various buildings and a specified number of hours for service calls for bulb, ballast, and socket replacement. Service calls will be undertaken as ordered by the Physical Plant Department by means of a contract work order charged against this project. T h e contract amount may be increased or reduced based on the number of service calls ordered in accordance with unit prices specified in the contract documents. All lamps, ballasts, and sockets will be supplied by the University. Funds will be included in the Chicago Physical Plant institutional funds budget authorization request to be submitted to the Board of Trustees for FY 1984. T h e award of the contract is subject to the availability of these funds. Additive Alternate No. 1 is for the purchase and replacement of 1,500 damaged lamp lenses. Additive Alternative No. 2 is for the purchase and replacement of 250 broken exit sign glasses.
