Streamlining the Technology Procurement Process

Within Technology, we’re always looking for ways to improve workflows so we can reduce the time it takes to resolve support requests. In an effort to streamline the purchasing of hardware, software, and related technology, we have implemented an online request form for all technology procurements.

The online form is to be used for all requests, regardless of dollar amount or type of procurement (product, service, contract, etc.). Completing the form will initiate the request in our system and allow us to track and complete the purchase in an organized and timely manner.

When submitting your request, please include as much information about the purchase as possible in order to avoid delays. Please note that all requests for a contracted service or subscription will require approval from the Office of General Counsel during the purchasing process.

To submit a technology purchase request, please visitservicedesk.simmons.edu/getsupport/techpurchase. For more information about the technology procurement process, click here. If you have additional questions, please contact the Service Desk at 617-521-2222.
