Archibus
Any non-emergency maintenance request can be submitted online 24/7 through Archibus. This creates a "ticket" or work order for the ODU Facilities Management department to service.
Archibus is the University's new online work order ticket system. Use Archibus for any non-emergency maintenance request on campus. With Archibus you can use your MIDAS account to login, select the exact space or location for your request from the building floor plan, add alternate contacts to your work order, upload additional documents or pictures, and much more!
You will receive confirmation and status updates of your work order via e-mail, and you can also track its status by logging in anytime.
For questions or assistance with Archibus, contact the Maintenance Support Center at 757-683-4600.
Medical Campus – for questions and assistance with Archibus, contact Linda Lopez at lopezla@odu.edu.
