  Hardware Installation

  Typically, new hardware products will be delivered to the ITS department and the Help Desk will schedule barcoding and installation with the recipient.

  If a product is received by the department, the department is to contact the Help Desk and schedule barcoding and installation.

  Personally owned or donated products must be approved by the Associate Vice President of Information Technology before installation and connection to University equipment. A good guideline as to whether a product will be approved is to compare it to the University standard. If the product is not an exact match, ITS will not accept, install, or support the product. Before making or accepting a donation, please consult with the Associate Vice President for Information Technology.

  Software Installation

  For faculty and administration requiring the installation of a software package, the Help Desk is available to assist.

  In some instances, the Help Desk will work with the Network team to automatically deliver and install the application through the TitanNet network, while in other instances the Help Desk will schedule an on-site visit.

  For non-standard applications funded through the department, a copy of the license must be provided for each installation and that copy will be filed in the central ITS software library.

  ITS has a strict anti-piracy position and will not install unlicensed software. In addition, if any ITS member detects an unlicensed product they are obligated by federal law to correct the measure or to report the instance. Please refrain from the use of unlicensed software.

  Printer Repair Policy

  In an effort to more efficiently manage our institutional cost for printer repair, all McNichols computer users requiring printer repairs should now submit repair requests directly to the Help Desk at (313) 993-1500 or by ticket at . If our Help Desk staff can repair the unit, they will do so; however, if a technician is required, the Help Desk staff will facilitate the repair with 樱桃视频's exclusive printer repair vendor to ensure the work is properly completed. All external billable work will need to be approved by the Help Desk staff and will be IDC'd to the department. Warranty repair work for any printer should also be coordinated through the Help Desk. If it appears that a printer may be down for repair for more than an acceptable period of time, a loaner unit, if available, will be installed.

  Relocating Equipment

  The relocation of all IT related equipment is to be handled by the Help Desk. Please provide two weeks advance notice prior to the move to allow for the Help Desk staff, Network staff, and Telecomm staff to coordinate the effort. 

  While the relocation of equipment may seem like a minor item, in a complex University environment it is possible that computers and phones may be moved to locations where ports are not active or not configured.

  The Help Desk also maintains the active inventory of every IT related item and their records are frequently used during investigations of theft. Without an accurate record of the location of equipment, investigations, and replacement of missing equipment is often hampered.
