These contracts will be for work for which the estimated project cost will be less than $25,000. The several contractors bid on percentages to be added to an estimated volume of material, labor, and subcontracts which may be furnished. The work will be carried out as ordered by the Physical Plant Department and will be paid for on the basis of the actual cost of each job, plus the contractor's fees. Each job will be authorized by a contract work order charged against funds allocated for the project. Funds have been included in the appropriation bill of the General Assembly to meet the ordinary and contingent expenses of the University for FY 1981 and will be included in the Chicago Circle and Medica"! Center operating budget authorization requests for FY 1981 to be submitted to the Board of Trustees. A schedule of the bids received has been filed with the secretary of the board for record. It is further recommended that the comptroller be authorized to approve work orders under these cost-plus contracts for projects for which the total cost does not exceed $25,000. Such work orders will be reported in the usual manner in the Comptroller's Monthly Report of Contracts Executed.
