The manager of Facilities Services is the telecommunications coordinator for Research Park and Incubator companies. This is a service for tenant companies, but is not a requirement. The tenant company may, at any time, coordinate their own telecommunication needs. Just advise the Manager of Facilities Services whom you would like designated as the coordinator for your company & they will advise IT Services. Services are provided by the ISU IT's Department. Allow at least seven working days before the move-in date to ensure timely installation.
