New Technology Request

This procedure outlines the process for requesting new technologies (hardware and software) for the

classrooms and labs, maintained by the UNT Dallas Office of Information Technology.

 

Due to the complexity of this task, there will be set dates in which new technology requests

will be accepted, reviewed, tested, approved/denied, and installed. These dates will be before the fall

and spring semesters and before the summer terms. Details about this new procedure have been

provided below.

 

New Technology Installation Dates

 

  • December 15th – January 10th: will serve as the installation dates for the Spring Semester
  • July 20th – August 15th: will serve as the installation dates for the Fall Semester

 

The software approval process can take up to thirty (30) days for approval. The last day to

request software for the installation dates are listed below:

  • November 15th – last day to request software for the Spring Semester
  • June 20th – last day to request software for the Fall Semester

 

New Technology Approval Process

 

The purpose of the new technology approval procedure is to ensure that software purchased by the

university and departments:

  • Is in line with teaching and learning goals of the university
  • Meets or exceeds purchasing standards for quality and value
  • Is compatible with existing and planned technologies
  • Is approved by IT
  • Is approved by the appropriate departmental Dean
  • Is approved by Purchasing and Payment Services (PPS)
  • Is approved by Legal

 

Step One: Contact the Provosts Office for preliminary evaluation of your request. If approved, your

request will be forwarded to the UNT Dallas IT department (via help ticket) for evaluation of the new

technology. During this phase, compatibility testing with the new technology requested and the current

infrastructure will be conducted.

Tips for new request: Include what the pedagogical needs are for the request and a projected date by

which the request needs to be fulfilled (the IT department cannot guarantee the projected date will be

met but will work diligently to accommodate the requestor).

 

Step Two: Upon approval from a technological perspective, IT will work with Purchasing and Payment

System (PPS) and Legal to verify the license agreement falls in alignment with system wide policies and procedures. IT will then submit the request to the appropriate Dean for final approval to purchase the new technology.

 

Step Three: Once the requested technology has been purchased, it will be implemented during one of

the installation dates mentioned above. Completion of all of the steps mentioned above are necessary

and no new technology will be deployed without completing this process entirely.
