the actual hours of services performed and billed, in accord with the firm's hourly rate schedule, the total not to exceed $300,000. T h e new Job Cost Accounting System (JCA) now has been implemented; but in order to take advantage of recent technological developments, additional enhancements are desired. The new JCA will interface with Phase I, Project Management System, when it is completed. Because the consultant was required to spend several unanticipated months in development work and maintenance of the JCA, a reduced budget was available to complete the development of the Work Order Routing Control System ( W O R C S ) . The proposed WORCS is nearing design completion. It will facilitate billing and work order data maintenance, work order setup and generation, transaction processing, and reporting and inquiry procedures. Both systems will provide immediate data entry and access and will allow University staff to produce needed reports without further need for consultant services. All work on both systems is scheduled for completion by March 1, 1986. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, now recommends that the contract with the consultant be increased by $120,635 for additional professional services required to enhance the new Job Cost Accounting System and to provide additional design and development of the Work Order Routing Control System. Institutional funds are available in the Fiscal Year 1986 operating budget of the Chicago Physical Plant.
