Technology Purchasing Cut-Off Deadline

Posted on: No Comments

Faculty/Staff,

The end of the Spring semester is fast approaching and is bringing us closer to the end of fiscal year 2016. To make certain that all technology purchase requests utilizing current fiscal year funds are fulfilled before the end of the budget year, Information Technology will stop processing technology orders for fiscal year 2016 on Wednesday, May 4th, 2016 at 5:00 p.m.

***Please, email computerpurchasing@tcu.edu for all technology purchasing questions or requests.***

The ordering cut-off is necessary so that any technology orders placed using current fiscal year funds are received in the current fiscal year and not billed to fiscal year 2017.  We will do our best to make sure equipment is received before the end of May, but cannot guarantee delivery due to variable lead times.  Please, order sooner than later to avoid any billing issues.

Be aware that orders received for technology related equipment after 5:00 p.m. on May 4, 2016 will be processed in fiscal year 2017.

Technology Acquisition Policy

Keep in mind that all computers, software, and other computer related technology purchases must be placed through the Information Technology purchasing department.  Technology purchases made outside of Information Technology will not be added to the TCU network and can create support limitations for you and the product. The policy for Computer Technology Acquisitions can be found by visiting the following site:
