    Allocate Existing Resources

    Mario,

     

    EMS Controls (David Hardin’s group) is working on a controls upgrade at Micro Nano. I am trying to connect Ayush (cc’d) with someone who can discuss the engineering on the ESCO project and potential ECM’s that were evaluated but ultimately not included in the project. Are you a good contact for this or should I reach out to GBA (Mike/Tim)?

     

    Thanks,

     

    Amber Perfetti

    Amber,

     

    I think Mike would be best.  I don’t have access to any of the work we did with ESG.  Maybe Jim C can help as well ?

    Hey Amber,

     

    Thanks for getting this conversation started. Can you share Mike and Jim’s email ID’s? I can try contacting them.

     

    Thank you,

    Ayush

    Dear Jim and Mike,

     

    EMS Controls (David Hardin’s group) is working on a controls upgrade project at Micro Nano. Is there someone with whom we can discuss the potential ECM’s that were evaluated but ultimately not included in the ESCO project?

     

    Thank you,

    Jim and I will circle our wagons next week and get together with you by the  weeks end.

    Hey David,

     

    Below is the list of unfunded ECMs and deferred maintenance items that were considered but not acted upon by ESCO.

     

    Thank you,

    Ayush

    Ayush,

     

    This is useful information and provides a starting point.

     

    Thanks

     

    Hey everyone,

     

    Here is some info from Mike McDermott from their ESCO review.

  2. Provost Office approves funding for LED Exit Signs

    Associated Project(s): 
    LED Exit Signs
    Allocate Existing Resources

    The Office of the Provost approved $75,000 in one-time funding for the next step in the LED Exit Sign retrofit project.  The funding of $75,000 is for LED Exit Sign lighting replacement, additions, and new building surveys.  Material and labor of $70,000 would be used to replace 343 fixtures in 20 buildings at an average rate of $204/fixture.  An additional $5,000 is proposed to survey 50 campus buildings for exit light counts.  That will provide the input necessary for the next phase, once this phase is completed.
