List of Technically (ICT) Approved Items
To make the procurement process quicker, for certain IT accessories as well as software, a list of technically approved items is available below: when procuring such items, no technical approval from the ICT Service is required. However, ICT still recommends to seek advice via its ICT User Support offices before filing a purchase request to ensure full compatibility with your existing IT equipment!
- procurement workflow still follows the standard procurement policy (need for a quote, filing a Procurement Request Form, etc.) unless otherwise specified;
- a Procurement Request Form (PRF) still needs to be filed even in case of advance purchase (in order for Budget and Finance Service to commit the funds);
- proof of purchase (invoice, receipt, etc.) and Serial and/or License Number (where applicable) must be communicated to ICT Service ([email protected]) in order to be refunded;
- ink cartridges and toners for printers in use at home (non Ricoh printers) [1] as well as CDs, DVDs, etc. are to be considered consumables and as such should be ordered via office supplies request.
