All proposals must be submitted using the online form, during the submission period November 20 - December 16, 2009. A copy of the submitted form will be e-mailed to the appropriate Dean’s office, the person listed as the authorized contact, and the person submitting the form. A readable copy of the submitted form will also be returned to the originating terminal screen which may be printed. Individual requests may include both hardware and software, however, all proposals requesting software must also include a Software Request Detail Form.
Software requests must be accompanied by a Software Request Detail Form (Downloads Excel File) which should be attached to the FY11 Online Request Form. For software to be eligible for consideration, all fields in the spreadsheet must be filled out for each software product being requested. This information will provide the necessary detail to properly evaluate a request.
Please fill out the form based on the particular software being requested and your department's current information, e.g. if your department already owns copies and wishes to upgrade or acquire more copies, etc. Please submit this Excel file as an attachment with your technology fee funding request.
Other attachment files may also be submitted to define specific hardware or software needs. These attached files may be vendor specification sheets, Excel spreadsheets, lists of desired equipment, or any other information files to be included with the submission of the form. Text files with extensions of .doc, .rtf, .txt, or .pdf are acceptable.
Dean’s Office Priority List Submission
We welcome your recommendations and request all proposals within a college be prioritized by the Dean or an official representative. A unique sequence number will be assigned to each proposal at the time of online submission. This unique number should be associated with an appropriate priority number. Please send the prioritized list of the proposals within a college or unit to techfee@utk.edu by December 23, 2009.
All requested equipment and software will be provided directly by the Office of Information Technology beginning July 1, 2010. Based on the Inventory Policy, certain equipment will remain on the inventory of the Technology Fee account; however, most equipment and software will be transferred to the custodial department either immediately or after an established period.
