Campus vendors or contractors may contact the UW-Madison Police Department (UWPD) Access Control Office directly requesting access to secure locations based on work they need to do in a building. In these cases, UWPD Access Control will email the Building Contact to confirm if access can be granted and who will add access.
Based on the request, the Building Contact will include the appropriate process owner when replying to UWPD Access Control, so access can be received, reviewed, and confirmed in a timely fashion.
Assigning Access
Upon receiving a request for access, the process owner will log into the Non-UWPD Lenel Web Client to add access levels to a Wiscard holder.
The process owner will communicate with the requester, confirming that access has been granted and that the cardholder should now be able to access the secure location(s) within buildings occupied by the Division of Information Technology (DoIT).
If the process owner needs assistance accessing the Non-UWPD Lenel Web Client or assigning secure access, they will email:
- Christine Congdon, the DoIT Internal Operations Manager at christine.congdon@wisc.edu
