Archibus Web Central

Archibus Web Central is a web interface used to access space inventory data (area, allocations, and usage) that is tracked within Facilities Information Resources. Any F&S employee may have view level access to this data by sending a ticket to the FandS Support Desk with subject line:  “Request access to Archibus Web Central”. After the account is set up, training can be scheduled with the new user by request. For questions, contact Brett Thompson bet@illinois.edu.

Drawing & Document Searching

Almost all contract drawings are archived digitally and made available to team members at F&S by the Facilities Information Resources (FIR) department. In addition, project manuals and many shop drawings are also available digitally, and in some cases, via paper form in PPSB, room 117.  If you have shared drive access and the capabilities to search, these training videos can help you use these existing resources more effectively and efficiently. For questions, contact Chad Kupferschmid cakupfer@illinois.edu.
