Some Common Terms…Some Common Terms…• Work Request

– A request to provide new service or upgrade existing infrastructure

• Design– A graphical or non-graphical representation of facility installations,

changes or removals to provide new service or improve existing changes, or removals to provide new service or improve existing infrastructure

• Compatible UnitCompatible Unit– Materials and labor required to

install, change or remove infrastructure

• Job Defaults– Rule of thumb design characteristics
