Software Requests
Software Requests
All software requests must go through the Technology Department. If software is ordered without collaboration with the Technology Department, there are no guarantees the software will be compatible with current systems; therefore, the implementation may be denied.
As a general rule, web-based versions of software are always recommended if possible to ensure an efficient and manageable implementation. If software needs to be installed on student or staff devices, the Technology Department will need to determine whether the requested software can be packaged and installed with our system. All requests for software must be made a minimum of 1 month prior to implementation. Regardless of the type of software requested, the following will need to be answered prior to any purchases:
- Does the software require an onsite server to be setup?
- If yes, what are the requirements of the server?
- What devices are compatible with this software?
- Is there a management portal with the software?
- If yes, who will be managing the portal?
- Is training needed?
- If yes, who will be coordinating and facilitating
As always, the technology department is available to collaborate, brainstorm, and advise all device and software requests.
