The University of Louisville seeks a cloud-based organizational analytics platform to ingest periodic workforce data and provide visualizations and analysis of organizational hierarchy, spans of control, and shared-services staffing. The requested solution includes data mapping, single sign-on setup, dashboard configuration, training, and hosted support, with quarterly data refreshes and snapshot retention. Proposals will be evaluated on experience, technical fit, cost, and implementation approach, and the solution must meet the university’s security and accessibility requirements.
The University of Louisville Procurement Services, on behalf of University Planning, Design, and Construction (UPDC), seeks qualified contractors to renovate the first floor of the former Kosair Charities Pediatric Center into workplace space for Department of Pediatrics divisions. The work includes interior demolition and new partitions and finishes, along with mechanical, electrical, plumbing, lighting, and fire-suppression upgrades. The project must meet Kentucky building and fire-safety codes and university construction-site requirements, including dust control, hazardous-waste handling, and close-out documentation.
