All requests to purchase computer software, hardware, and peripherals using College funds must be submitted:
- through the LTS Computing Purchase Request Form
- with an accurate and complete budget number (FOAPAL)
- by an authorized signer of that FOAPAL
Items will not be ordered until a full FOAPAL has been provided. Email requests will no longer be accepted and the person emailing will be instructed to fill out the Purchase Request Form. If you are not the authorized signer on the FOAPAL to be charged, contact the authorized signer and ask them to submit the form above on your behalf. By completing the form, the requester authorizes LTS to journal a debit against that FOAPAL, eliminating the need to copy authorized signers on the journal entry form.
Currently, some users email Wayne Randall directly, and requests do not always contain an accurate FOAPAL or are not submitted by the authorized signer for the FOAPAL, resulting in errors. In consultation with Finance and Administration, we are making changes to this process to make it more efficient and financially compliant. We appreciate your assistance in helping us streamline this process.
