{Insert space guidelines here}

Please submit a service request with the key number, building, suite and room number you would like to access. For card access or de-activation please email SAfacilities@usc.edu

You will only be able to access space in your direct department.

Furniture must be purchased from an approved furniture dealer through the procurement website. It is preferred that the furniture line/aesthetic remain the same as the existing space. Keeping continuity is ideal, any and all office furnishings should be done so in a common direction. This will keep the building look consistent, maintained and fresh.

Furniture Guidelines

All furniture is property of the Division of Student Affairs. Before disposing, selling or sending any furniture to Surplus you MUST notify SAfacilities@usc.edu 

Someone will schedule a time to assess the furniture and offer it to other members of the Division of Student Affairs or the Office of the Provost.

If the furniture is not needed SA Facilities will coordinate pick-up with USC Surplus. If the furniture is in insufficient condition, we will schedule a time for it to be disposed.

Additional fees for disposal will apply.

A service request number is issued by USC Facilities Management Services. This number will track the day you submitted the project and the status of the project.

You may email SAFacilities@usc.edu to follow up on your ticket status.

All projects require an initial walk through by your Facility representative. Once a cost is determined you will received a quote. Once the quote is funded through an Internal Requisition your project will be scheduled for completion.
