Order Approval
Each department in A&S budgets for their technology purchases. The process starts each October/November when departments make prioritized requests for capital funds for the upcoming fiscal year; the approved funds are available in June.
A&S Department Chairs may authorize computer/printer orders when:
- the order is a replacement (where a similar, older unit will be turned in)
- the order is funded using existing department, grant or special funds
- the order is for either:
- items selected from the approved standard models, or
- a non-standard model approved by ITS for this specific purchase
- and the order is placed using the official University web-stores
Orders that meet EACH OF THESE CRITERIA may be purchased by department staff.
OTHERWISE
... please email an INVENTORY REQUEST for the Dean's office to assist with:- processing the "addition to inventory" request (new items; nothing to turn in)
- finding funds when necessary (rare)
- requests for non-standard models or display technology (projector, flat panels for classroom, public area, signage, etc.) (rare)
Please submit a well-justified explanation; have your department Chair approval for this expenditure before proceeding. Contact us with any questions:
