Please review the following for the acquisition and use of Kellogg Community College owned or leased computer hardware, software and telephone equipment

Computer Hardware and Software Purchases

All computer hardware and software acquisitions must be submitted on a PURCHASE REQUISITION and sent to the Information Services (I.S.) department. The requisitions will be reviewed for compliance with institutional standards.

All PURCHASE REQUISITIONS must include the name and room number of the person to whom the merchandise is to be delivered.

Following a review and approval by the I.S. department the Business Manager will issue a Kellogg Community College PURCHASE ORDER for the acquisition. Individuals will not be reimbursed for personal acquisitions without the prior approval of the Business Manager.

Upon receipt of the merchandise by Kellogg Community College Physical Plant staff it will be sent to the I.S. Department for assembly and testing. NO HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE WILL BE SENT TO THE REQUISITIONER UNTIL I.S. HAS COMPLETED ALL NECESSARY PROCEDURES.

The I.S. department will notify the individual or department when the complete order has arrived. I.S. will deliver the merchandise upon completion of the check-in procedures.

Telephone Equipment

All telephone equipment must be compatible with the College owned telephone system. Any telephone equipment connected to the College telephone system must be approved, in advance, by the I.S. department.

Software Licensing

All software being utilized on College-owned equipment must be properly licensed and installed by the I.S. department. The I.S. department will retain all software licenses and media.

IT IS ILLEGAL FOR ANYONE TO COPY COMMERCIAL SOFTWARE PROGRAMS WITHOUT PROPER AUTHORIZATION.

If you are using College owned equipment, ALL software must be properly licensed. If you have unlicensed software products on College-owned equipment please remove the software immediately.
