Several federal and state mandates regulate the adoption, purchasing, and procurement of information and communication technology (ICT) — the capture, storage, retrieval, processing, display, representation, presentation, organization, management, security, transfer, and interchange of data and information (ISO/IEC 2382).

  • Documentation for the three processes above is attached to the requisition.
  • The ITS ICT Approver approves the purchase in PeopleSoft.
