The Department of Facilities Management & Planning does not assist with room reservations or space rental, which is handled by the Department of Conference & Event Services. Facilities Management will assist with event set-up and production only after a reservation has been confirmed.
-
We will do our best to accommodate requests made less than seven working days in advance; however, we cannot guarantee the availability of sufficient labor, and the requesting department will be charged double the normal rate.
-
Following submission of a work request, Facilities Management will reply with an email confirmation and any questions we may have regarding event details.
-
Facilities Management cannot guarantee the security of provided items after set-up is complete. This means requestors are responsible for their security until they are picked up post-event. Replacement costs for any lost or stolen items will be charged to the requesting department.
-
In case of a Facilities Management–related event emergency, please call 303-435-2128 or page us at 303-851-6290.
-
Facilities Management will detail event set-up in accordance with the work request, including digital photos of the set. Additional fees may be incurred for resetting an event if items become displaced following the initial set-up.
-
In order to regulate workflow and control costs, Facilities Management will take direction from only one duly authorized University employee, appointed as the event manager.
-
Any alteration to the facility or grounds by or on behalf of an outside entity must be approved in advance of the event.
-
Work requests must specify all relevant event details necessary for Facilities Management to provide adequate services.
