We understand there are times when it may seem more convenient to buy it on your own, or that an emergency need arises to\u00a0purchase a new software or device. However, our policies and guidelines are in place to not only protect the University, but also the purchaser.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some quick tips on best practices for faculty and staff who are considering purchasing any new hardware or software.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All software that is being purchased and downloaded to any Chapman computer equipment, requires an agreement to to be reviewed &amp; approved by IS&amp;T, Purchasing and Legal Affairs <strong>prior <\/strong>to the purchase.\n<ol>\n<li>All software purchases must also be checked and cleared by our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/accessibility\/\"><strong>Digital Accessibility<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/campus-services\/information-systems\/security\/index.aspx\"><strong>Information Security<\/strong><\/a> teams before they are sent to Legal Affairs for approval.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>It is University policy that all computer purchases (including laptops, tablets, iPads, and software) <strong>must go through IS&amp;T<\/strong>.\u00a0 Staff and faculty cannot purchase this equipment on their company P-card or use their personal credit card. It is University policy that all technology and software purchases are made via a Purchase Order (PO) through your respective college\/department. The consequences of not following policies and procedures can be that the product may not be supported and\/or we may not be able to implement it. <strong>Also, the purchaser may not be eligible for reimbursement.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For more information about hardware and software purchasing at Chapman University, please review our online resources listed below, prior to making a purchase.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/campus-services\/campus-controller\/financial-services\/fiscal-policy\/index.aspx#purchasing-procedures\">Fiscal Policy<\/a> (<em>provided by Financial Services<\/em>)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/campus-services\/information-systems\/services\/technology-project-management.aspx\">Software Purchase Review<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For any questions or concerns, please email the Service Desk at<strong> Servicedesk@chapman.edu<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What you need to know before purchasing any hardware or software.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1479,"featured_media":4151,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"custom_author_name":"","chapman_pin_hero_slider":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[172,23,26],"tags":[171,36,173],"class_list":["post-1675","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-accessibility","category-ist","category-technology","tag-accessibility","tag-infosec","tag-software"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Information Systems &amp;
