Project Management
Project Information Request (PIF)
Purpose
To request a general price point for the scope of work described in order to better identify funding issues. This request comes before the Project Request Form to provide departments with generic pricing information for preliminary budgeting purposes before requesting a project to be implemented.
When to use
This is the first step for many projects and is appropriate when a department needs to obtain pricing. PIFs are also used for approval of space use changes, furniture and permanent signage of less than 30K, and for feasibility reviews and preliminary design estimates.
