Butler employees may now submit purchase requests for new standard computer equipment directly through the IT department by submitting a case at ask.butler.edu. Please note that all non-standard computer equipment requests (including iPads and other tablets) should continue to be submitted to the Purchasing department via a purchasing requisition. Non-standard computer equipment requests are subject to approval by IT and may not be approved if a comparable standard device exists.
Most standard computer equipment is continuously stocked by IT, though there may be a lead time of up to 6 weeks for equipment purchases of certain computer models. If you are requesting new computer equipment and require it within a certain timeframe, please contact IT to ensure we have the equipment in stock. All equipment purchases are subject to approval by departmental budget managers. Please note that computer equipment purchases may not be charged to university purchasing cards or submitted for reimbursement.
For a list of standard computer equipment, see links below. If the technology you would like to purchase is not one of the computer or peripheral standards listed below, please read more about the
support available for non-standard devices .
