1. GENERAL1.1 EFFECTIVE DATEThis document supersedes all previous revisions.1.2 PURPOSEThe purpose of this document is to provide a guideline for the standardization of ICT Systems(twisted pair) for Owens Community College.This standard specifies the basic requirements of any contractor installing or servicing ICT cableand related hardware for Owens Community College. Owens Community College expectscontractors to take ownership and responsibility for the services they provide. This documentsets forth a basic list of requirements for the quality processes used by such contractors and isnot to be considered all-inclusive.1.3 APPLICATIONThis document is intended to apply to any company or contractor providing or potentiallysupplying installation services for ICT systems for Owens Community College. Other obligationsand responsibilities may additionally apply per contract or other agreements; this document inno way supersedes such agreements but may be referenced to provide support or clarificationof those requirements.All requirements described herein are broadly defined so as to be suitable for most situations. Itis the minimum standard by which all installation work and/or construction documents shouldbe based. Any modifications to these standards, for any particular project, must be approved inwriting by Owens Community College ICT Department prior to being put into effect.1.4 DEFINITIONS1.4.1From herein, Information & Communication Technologies (ICT) refers to anycopper structured cabling, fiber, voice, audio/visual systems, security, accesscontrol, sound reinforcement, wireless access points, and cameras.1.4.2From herein, all companies, contractors, sub-contractors or other entitiesinstalling ICT and related equipment for Owens Community College, shall bereferred to as the “Contractor”.1.4.3From herein, Owens Community College and OCC ICT Department shall bereferred to as the “Owner”1.4.4 BICSI:Page 4Owens Community College Information & Communication Technologies Standards
