RE: Redelegation of Authority - Appointment of Executive Architects, Executive Landscape Architects, and Executive and Consulting Engineers

The authority to appoint and execute the necessary agreements for executive architects, executive landscape architects, and executive and consulting engineers for approved budgeted projects with a total individual project cost not exceeding $70,000,000, subject to design and design professional requirements set out in the University Facilities Manual, was delegated to Chancellors by Presidential Delegation of Authority DA2596, April 19, 2016 [superseded by DA 2622, April 20, 2018]. I am redelegating this authority to the Vice Chancellor–Administrative and Business Services and the Assistant Vice Chancellor–Design and Construction Services/Campus Architect.  Information pertaining to the selection of executive architects and engineers and their basic services fees for all major capital projects will be collected as part of the annual Major Capital Project Implementation Report submittal.

This redelegation of authority is applicable to all projects with approved budgets on property owned by The Regents or on property which will be owned by The Regents upon completion of the project. Total individual project cost shall be defined as all the costs of the project including administrative, design, construction, interest accrued during construction, and equipment costs.

This authority may not be further redelegated and supersedes Chancellor Drake's July 2, 2009 delegation on the same subject (IDA 478).
