Department Responsibilities

Approval and Funding for Hardware Upgrades

• Departments are responsible for receiving the appropriate approvals for any special hardware upgrades or requests, and transferring the necessary funds to ITS.
• The transfer of funds needs to be done according to a pre-defined timeline that enables the 蜜桃传媒CR team to place orders far enough in advance to ensure equipment arrives in time for the department鈥檚 scheduled upgrades.

Computer Exchange

For each computer provided through 蜜桃传媒CR, there is a 1:1 exchange required. Departments must return a working听蜜桃传媒-purchased听computer. Departments who wish to return their older systems first, must work closely with the 蜜桃传媒CR Team. It is critical that the Asset Management system has all the required information and that all licensing requirements are resolved prior to the date of the exchange.

For this 蜜桃传媒CR cycle, if you're moving from a desktop to a laptop, you will need to return all the accessories that were deployed with the desktop (including your monitor, keyboard, power adapter, and mouse).

Computer Donations

As a practice, Boston College does not donate computers to charity organizations.听 Computers that are no longer in use have their hard drives erased to comply with software license agreements and are sent to a third-party vendor for Asset Recovery and resold by the third party. If determined to not be resalable by the third party, the computers are disposed in a manner that adheres to all EPA, federal, and state regulations.
