The purpose of this document is to provide a standardized procedure for processing requests for the procurement of software for student labs and academic areas. This endeavor seeks to:

  1. Give us a better understanding of the software the college currently uses
  2. Help us manage and maintain the software used by the college
  3. Categorize the software by departments for better distribution
  4. Give us the ability to coordinate the renewal/procurement of software
