Facilities Work Orders

Report an urgent facilities issue

For a water leak, flooding or another facilities issue that needs immediate attention, call UC Davis Facilities Management at 530-752-1655.

Call Facilities Management

Urgent issues include those that affect human or animal health and safety, threaten research or disrupt instruction. Explain what is happening, where the issue is located and why it needs immediate attention.

Submit a routine service request

Use Tririga, the campus work order system, for non-urgent maintenance and custodial service requests.

Keep your confirmation email

What happens after you submit a request

Facilities Management receives your work order and routes it to a supervisor or lead for assignment. Work order scheduling depends on urgency, operational impact and staff availability.

Explain any effects on laboratories, animal spaces or teaching spaces so Facilities Management can assess the priority of your request.

A start date is provided after the work order is assigned. Check your assignment email for the date and, when included, contact information for the person handling the work. If you need an update, call Facilities Management.
