Contract Administration

Contractors respond to a request for proposal posted on the Illinois Public Higher Education Procurement Bulletin stating which of the 30 divisions of work they can perform and providing an hourly rate for each trade. You may work directly with the contractor to determine the scope and price of a project or have F&S coordinate the work for you.

Getting Started – Project Request

The preferred method for requesting Contract Administration is to complete the online request process and let F&S review your project and select an appropriate pre-qualified contractor. All Contract Administration requests are reviewed by Construction Services staff before the building permits are issued. Project details and a scope should be included in the Contract Administration request when it is submitted.

When a specialty contractor is required, Construction Services must work with Campus Purchasing for approval.
