SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT BETWEEN

FACILITIES AND

(CUSTOMER) DEFINITION OF SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT This Service Level Agreement is an agreement made between Facilities (Service Provider) and (Customer) for facility services for a period of one (1) year to commence April 1st annually. Facilities and (Customer) commit to the roles and responsibilities as outlined and agree on the scope and service level expectations specified. PAYING FOR SERVICES

SUPPORTED AND UNSUPPORTED SPACE Supported space is recognized space for which the University receives general operations grant funding and

that Facilities is funded for by central administration to maintain. This includes the areas that are occupied by almost all academic departments, administrative and support units. Designation as supported space is based on the functional or programmatic use of the property, not its physical characteristics.

Unsupported space refers to space for which the University does not receive general operations grant funding

and that Facilities is not funded to maintain. This generally includes self-supporting or revenue generating units such as parking, food and ancillary services, and institutes or other third parties affiliated with the University. Equipment used by departments, programs or units involved in research activities is also unsupported. Costs for maintaining unsupported space or equipment must be paid for by the unit, institute, department, program, service or third party that uses it. Within the same University building, there may be some space that is supported where operations and maintenance costs are paid for by the University; and in other areas, space that is unsupported where operations and maintenance costs are paid for by a grant or the self-supporting unit occupying the space. In all cases, Facilities Development (FD) services will be charged back.

PURCHASING ADDITIONAL SERVICES

Units in both supported and unsupported space may purchase additional services as needed. Facilities has yearround staffs that provide a host of services. In addition, Facilities will source and manage the performance of qualified outside contractors who may be required to meet your needs.

BILLING FOR SERVICES

Facilities customers are billed monthly for all services that are considered “cost recoverable” whether for supported or unsupported space and for any additional services requested.

UNIVERSITY SERVICE(S) – FACILITIES Building services, including Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) response, are provided during the following normal business hours: Monday – Friday 07:30 – 16:00 Please note: reduced staffing levels begin at 16:00; only emergency response services are available after this time. Services outside of these hours for non-academic programming, including HVAC, may be arranged for by calling the Customer Care Centre at 403-220-7555. Please allow for a minimum of 24 hours notice to ensure your request may be met. Faculties or departments that receive revenue for space rentals must understand that a portion of those dollars must be allocated for University occupancy costs. At a minimum, costs will be charged back for caretaking services. Exceptions - University of Calgary Holidays (Closed) May Victoria Day July Canada Day August Civic Holiday September Labour Day October* Thanksgiving Day November* Remembrance Day December Christmas Day, Boxing Day, Christmas Floaters January New Years Day February* Family Day March*/April Good Friday *Note: Libraries and Residences remain open during these holidays. •

Standard building Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) control times to match building operating hours.



Statutory Holidays – all buildings, except MacEwan Student Centre and Residences, will be closed and HVAC controls will be set to the building non-operating temperature range standard.



Temperature range standard for occupied space:  The heating season generally is from mid-October to mid-May; with the cooling season generally from mid-May to mid-October.  During building operating hours: a general recommendation is that the temperature be held constant in the range of 21-23°C. In summertime when outdoor temperatures are higher it is advisable to keep airconditioned offices slightly warmer to minimize the temperature discrepancy between indoors and outdoors.  During building non-operating hours: temperature range is broadened to conserve energy use: 16oC minimum (winter), 27oC maximum (summer).  Research space: The temperature set range for research laboratories will be in accordance with the needs of the research being conducted in that space. Requests for exceptions to the human occupied space temperature standards can be submitted by Work Request to Facilities. The request should

UNIVERSITY SERVICE(S) – FACILITIES include the temperature set range required by the equipment and/or research, as well as the rationale for the request. Should HVAC improvements be required to meet this request it will be the responsiblitiy of the (customer) to provide the necessary funds. * The CSA Standard CAN/CSA Z412-00 - "Office Ergonomics" gives acceptable ranges of temperature and relative humidity for offices in Canada. These values are the same as recommended by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Standard 55 - 2004 "Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy". The recommended temperature ranges have been found to meet the needs of at least 80% of individuals. Some people may feel uncomfortable even if these values are met. Additional measures may be required. *The Alberta Residential Tenancies Act (ARTC) sets the minimum standard for heating a residence at 22°C. Note: It is the responsibility of (Customer) to ensure building occupants do not adjust thermostats/ventilation equipment or prop open doors or windows. •

Re-lamping All buildings are re-lamped based on demand and inspection. We do our best to identify re-lamping requirements on formal walkthroughs with dedicated staff; however, we will rely on service requests from our clients in private offices and spaces.

SUPPLEMENTARY SERVICES: (defined as services which are “common” but may not be required by all

Faculty/Business Units) Facilities will provide the Supplementary Services requested by (Customer) on a fee for services basis above the basic service level {See Appendix B-2}. •

Exterior Window Cleaning The windows in all buildings will be cleaned upon request only, and on a cost recovery basis {See Appendix B-2}.



Communication / Notice Boards Posters, notices, and signs may only be affixed to notice or bulletin boards provided for that purpose. All posters, notices, and signs should be removed from notice boards at least once a year following winter semester and prior to August 15th. Notice boards in public corridors will be maintained by Facilities. Department notice boards will be clearly identified as such and will be managed and maintained by the department. Notice boards in MacEwan Hall or assigned to the Graduate Student Association (GSA) or Students’ Union will be managed and maintained by the GSA or Students’ Union. Notice boards in the residence halls will be managed and maintained by Residence Services. If the (customer) wishes Facilities to carry out this work, the (customer) should simply submit an ARCHIBUS Work Request providing the applicable account number.

OPTIONAL SERVICES: (defined as “unique” services)

Additional Optional Services may be selected by (Customer) at a fee for service throughout the service level period on an as needed basis {See Appendix B-3}. Note: Departmental Equipment monitoring and repair is an optional service.

Capital Construction Projects are defined as New Construction (including alteration or renovation) or Capital Maintenance (e.g. repair or replacement), and further categorized into Basic, Moderate, or Complex by a series of filtering criteria to determine risk, complexity and cost of a project. Although most projects benefit from industry standard project management services, some variations in service levels may be experienced due to project uniqueness. Projects will be delivered within the agreed upon time, budget, quality and scope parameters as defined in the Project Planning Workbook. This package holds the specific project approvals between the (Customer) and the Project Management Office and is prepared at the time of project approval. Facilities will provide project services selected by (Customer) on a fee for services basis {See Appendix B-4}.
