Employment of Engineer for North Campus Utilities, Urbana (23) The University's capital request for Fiscal Year 1987 includes funds for all of the utility services required for the existing and proposed facilities in the north campus area. The needs are for a central chilled-water facility, an electrical distribution system and load center, and extensions of the existing steam-distribution, water, sewer, and telecommunications systems. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the Capital Development Board be requested to employ Sargent and Lundy Engineers, Chicago, for the professional services required for the design and construction of north campus central-utility facilities and distribution systems. The fee for the professional services will be negotiated by the Capital Development Board in accord with its procedures. Funds for the employment of this firm in FY 1986 are available on an interim basis from funds appropriated to the Capital Development Board. Funds for the complete design and construction of the utility facilities have been requested for FY 1987. O n motion of Mr. Madden, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Day, Mr. Forsyth, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Howard, Mr. Logan, Mr. Madden, Mrs. Shepherd, Miss Smith; no, none; absent Governor Thompson. (Mr. H a h n asked to be recorded as not voting.) ( T h e student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Becker, Mr. L a m m ; no, none.) Employment of Consultant, Telecommunications System, Chicago (24) The president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends the employment of Telecommunications International, Inc., Englewood, Colorado, for the professional telecommunications consulting services required for implementation and performance monitoring of the new Illinois Bell voice telecommunications system to replace the existing Centrex system at the Chicago campus. The consultant will monitor the progress of the vendor, Illinois Bell, as the new system is installed — providing an installation schedule, a monthly status report, frequent quality-control checks, comprehensive test development, a systemwide inventory, a punch-list correction procedure, and a final report and analysis. The consultant's fee, based on the firm's hourly rate schedule, is not to exceed $86,400, plus reimbursable expenses estimated to be $11,724. Funds for this project are available in the Fiscal Year 1986 restricted funds budget of the Chicago Physical Plant.
