Per the IRUSP, ME Information Technology and the ME Finance Team are required to approve and/or be made aware of ALLcomputer-related purchases PRIOR to finalizing your purchase. This includes ALL methods of Procurement (ProCard, UT Market, Amazon Business accounts, Purchase Orders). This ensures all compute devices are Business/Enterprise models, meet university compliance (regardless of Operating System), and is approved for the university networks (wired & wireless). Computing equipment purchased that does not meet university standards or compliance must go through an exception process with the campus UT Information Security Office and ME IT. Without approval, these devices may not be placed into production and may need to be returned or will not be placed on the UT network (wired and/or wireless).
