IT purchases

You need prior approval in order to purchase IT equipment. Please see the guidelines below:

Purchase through the IT Webshop

All IT related purchases MUST be made through the IT Webshop. This means that you are not allowed to purchase IT equipment without involving AU IT. This applies to both ordinary and external funds. If you need equipment that cannot be found in the IT Webshop, select the product: Unspecified and just note your wish in the comments field - when you reach the checkout page. We refer to Procurement Policy for Aarhus University.

It is your personal responsibility to seek approval before placing an IT-order by sending an email to orderit@mgmt.au.dk with the following information:

Item you wish to purchase
Price
Where should the money come from? (department, section, PhD budget, external funding)
Reason for purchase?

The following items need prior approval – project (sag) and activity (sagsopgave) will be informed when purchase is approved:

Computer
Monitor
Telephone
iPad
Webcam

The following items can be bought without prior approval using project (sag) 10569 and activity (sagsopgave) 82501:

SPSS license
STATA license

Please contact Marianne Frimer if you have questions or are in doubt.
