6. Service Classification and Response/ Resolution
Times
Real Property & Planning

Projects are classified and assigned within the Real Property & Planning division according
to the impact their time-to-completion has upon the customer’s larger project. The use of a
priority classification system assists in optimum resource utilization. The prioritization is
performed according to the following categories of work:

Priority 1 (Urgent) - An urgent project involves work that must be addressed immediately
to: Respond to a request from a Commissioner, the County Administrator, or the County
Attorney’s Office. Meet a deadline for a high profile item. Address a safety issue. Meet a
BCC Agenda deadline for an important or high profile matter, or for a public hearing for
which a public notice has been advertised

Urgent work should be assigned within 1 hour and completed within 2 days. Work should
continue without interruption until complete.

Priority 2 (Prompt) - A prompt project is one which indicates the promptness of work
accomplishment is significantly greater than routine. Examples of prompt projects are:
Citizen Assistance, Single Parcel Easement, Title Requests, Space Studies, Property
Evaluations (zoning, assessments, valuations, etc.), Asset Management Surveys.

Prompt work should be completed within 15 days.

Priority 3 (Routine) - Routine projects are designated a normal degree of urgency for the
requested work to be accomplished. Most work will necessarily fall into this category.
Examples of routine projects are: Small Scale Acquisitions, Leasing, Property Disposition,
Utility Service Easements, Comprehensive Easements, and PVAS.

Routine work should be completed within 90 days.

Priority 4 (Long Term/Comprehensive) - Long term or comprehensive projects are

designated a normal degree of urgency for the requested work to be accomplished, but the
outcome of which depends upon ongoing input from customer, vendors and stakeholders.
This work shall proceed promptly, but may have periods of inactivity while awaiting
external input. Examples of long term or comprehensive projects are: Capital improvement
projects involving acquisition of rights-of-way, Vacation of rights-of-way/easements, or
Customer projects that cannot move forward until additional customer input is received.

Long Term/Comprehensive work should typically be completed within 180 days, but may

Facilities Management Department

Service Level Agreement
Page I 11
take up to 720 days for highly complex CIP projects.

Construction & Renovation

Projects are classified and assigned within the Construction & Renovation Division
according to their size, complexity, and overall difficulty to perform. There are four levels of
classification that are designed to improve productivity and reduce cost associated with
planning, designing, procuring, and sustaining facilities for our customers. The goal is to
safely and responsibly deliver the right amount of engineering and construction oversight
through either in-house or contracted services at the optimum lifecycle cost. The estimated
duration for the different levels of projects are:

Level 1 (Highly Complex) - Due the complexity of these projects throughout all the project
management groups, these projects are multi-year endeavors and my include land
acquisition, planning, design, and construction phases. Examples of Highly Complex projects
are: New Buildings or Major Renovations of a Buildings.

Highly Complex projects will typically be completed within 36 Months.

Level 2 (Reasonably Complex) - These projects tend to be primarily renovations, major

equipment replacements, and/or some new construction. Examples of Highly Complex
projects are: Renovations for Sections of Buildings or Major Equipment Replacements.

Reasonably Complex projects will typically be completed within 18 Months.

Level 3 (Slightly Complex) - These projects tend to be primarily minor renovations or

repairs. Examples of Slightly Complex projects are: Replacement of a Fire Alarm System,
Replacement of an Air Conditioner, or Installation of Systems Furniture.

Slightly Complex projects will typically be completed within 12 Months and are scheduled
to be completed during the fiscal year they are budgeted.

Level 4 (Minimally Complex) - These projects will be only straightforward renovation or

repair work. Examples of Minimally Complex projects are: Building a Partition Wall,
Flooring Installation, Parking Lot Resurfacing.

Minimally Complex projects will typically be completed within 6 Months and are scheduled
to be completed during the fiscal year they are budgeted.

The table on the following page is provided as a guideline for classifying design,
engineering, and construction work. Characteristics could result in actual projects being
classified differently (for example, a carpet replacement project may not always be
classified as Level 4 if circumstances dictate a higher level of design/engineering or
construction oversight).

Operations and Maintenance

Facilities Management prioritizes maintenance and repair work according to the severity
and complexity of the service requested. A priority assignment of work is essential in
determining the importance of each request in relation to other identified requirements.
The use of a priority classification system assists in optimum resource utilization. The
prioritization is performed according to the following categories of work:

Priority 1 (Emergency) - Emergency service is work that must be addressed immediately to:

 Prevent immediate danger to personnel or equipment.

 Prevent loss or damage to property.
 Ensure fulfillment of an essential operation or function

Emergency work should be assigned within 1 hour and completed within 24 hours. Work
should continue without interruption until the emergency is corrected, remedied or other
action has been taken to arrest or contain the condition. If further resources are required to
complete the repair, a follow up work order will be required. Work required to correct the
situation after the emergency has been secured will be prioritized according to the type of

Facilities Management Department

Service Level Agreement
Page I 13
work involved.

Priority 2 (Urgent) - An urgent work order is one which indicates the urgency of work
accomplishment is significantly greater than routine. Examples of urgent work orders are:
 Roof leaks
 HVAC failures
 Broken window

Urgent work should be completed within 5 working days of receiving the work request.

Priority 3 (Routine) - Routine work orders are designated a normal degree of urgency for
the requested work to be accomplished. Most work will necessarily fall into this category.
Preventative maintenance and recurring maintenance operations work also falls into this
category.

Routine work orders should be completed within 15 working days of receiving the work
request.

In addition to priority, each service request is evaluated for its complexity. Generally, each
service request should take no more than 32 man-hours to accomplish the request. Service
requests that will exceed 32 man-hours to complete will be turned over to the Construction
and Renovation Division and normally be turned into an Internal Services Service Requests
(ISSRs) and proposed in the next budget cycle, unless approved to become an out of cycle
project.
