How Can We Help You?

Construction Projects

If you would like to request an estimate for a future project or renovations, please contact DOM Facilities with the building name and room numbers involved, detailed description of requested work, requested start/completion dates, and contact person's name and phone number.

Someone from our team will submit the project request for you, and contact you once a written estimate has been received.

Construction projects follow different approval and deployment processes based on total cost. Jobs under $50K do not require a formal Public Works bid; and jobs over $1 million require approval by the UA Board of Trustees.

 

Relocation Projects

Lab Relocation. Prepare for moving or closing a lab by managing chemical, biological, and radiation hazards. Follow the Department of Environmental Health & Safety Policy for Termination of Laboratory Use of Hazardous Materials.

Office Relocation. The DOM offers guidelines and resources for a safe, efficient, and stress-free transition to new spaces. Initial planning is key. Please download and review the moving checklist and complete all relevant steps. While each move is unique, we aim to ensure a smooth transition for all. 

Surplus Property. For surplus items to be picked up, you must include a description of the item, where the item(s) are located (please include the building and room numbers), any UAB asset or serial numbers listed on the item, and the condition of the item (excellent, good, fair, salvage).

 

Physical & Digital Access

Data Port (Add New, Activate or Deactivate Existing). To request the addition of a new data port, activation, or deactivation of an existing port, or a VLAN change, contact DOM Facilities with a description of your request, including the account string number for charges and, if available, the data jack numbers.

Keys and Building Access. If you need to request a key or card access for any DOM buildings, please contact DOM Facilities and provide the full name and BlazerID of the key/cardholder, the building and room numbers for which the key is needed, and the building and room numbers requiring card access.

  


Space Requests

Whether you need lab space, office space, storage, or any other type of area, the DOM Facilities Team can help. All requests must be submitted by either the division administrator or division director, and all required questions need to be completed. Incomplete submissions will not be reviewed.
