Information Technology

All software requests should be done via the Southeast Tech Helpdesk. This process will create a record of your request date and keep a current status of the request.

1. Software Approval

All software must be approved by IT prior to being installed on any IT Computer Lab. IT may deny installation of software it does not see fit to be used in the labs. Reasons for denial of software request could include: further testing is needed to insure that the software does not cause problems for a stable lab environment, questions remain on licensing requirements, or on-going support of the product is not adequate for the southeast environment.

2. Lead time for installation requests

Install requests for existing approved applications require at least 10 working days lead time. Lead time starts from the time IT receives all software, license info, etc.

Install requests for new applications or upgrades/patches require at least 30 working days lead time. Lead time starts from the time ITS receives all software, license info, etc.

Install requests that have a server side component will likely take longer.

3. Application licensure requirements

IT must be provided with proof of license prior to implementing any software.

The minimum number of licenses required will be the number of computers in the requested lab.

The following must be set forth in the licensing documentation:

1. Name of software package
2. Type of license
3. Stipulations for usage
4. Number of purchased licenses
