IT Purchasing

Information Technology (IT) goods and services acquired by Humboldt are required to meet standards for accessibility, information security, and system compatibility.

For this reason, completion of the Information Technology Acquisition Review (ITAR) is required prior to acquisition of all IT-related goods and services regardless of cost (even free) and funding source.

Once IT approval is acquired, anything listed below must be sent to Contracts & Procurement for review:

  • Any software or web application not on the pre-approved list
  • Purchases over $5,000.00
  • Any contract or agreement requiring signature or click-through agreement

Items that fall under one or more of the following categories are subject to this process:

  • Electronic Content
  • Hardware (Computers, Tablets, etc.)
  • Software (including renewals)
  • Web
  • IT Services
