Purchasing Information --Computer/Equipment
- Staff Computer Systems and Software ordering - follow the instructions below. For additional analysis/planning or assistance in purchasing, please contact Mike Holliday or Tish Yaros (x4685).
- Faculty Computer Systems - Every fall semester, ITS reviews and prepares to implement the Academic Technology Plan (ATP). The ATP provides funding to replace a portion of the faculty office computer systems every year. Early September, ITS typically contacts those faculty they have identified as being eligible to have their computer replaced (only computers are replaced, other hardware/software is not funded via ATP). Replaced systems are then rebuilt and trickled to staff office locations that are in need of better equipment. If you have questions regarding this process, contact Mike Holliday (x7140).
