This unit manages the INSITE Database for equipment acquired from purchase orders, LVPOs, college requisitions, donations, Federal Surplus, transfers, and fabrications.
According to state regulations, we are responsible for bar code tagging all items with cost greater than $1,000 (and for all computers regardless of cost).
We are also responsible for completing department physical inventories every two years to comply with the Office of Management and Budget Circular’s A-21 and A-110.
For donated equipment contact the University's Development Office (874-5569) for information.
Contact the Coordinator for questions regarding the sale of equipment.
Our office must be notified:
*if a piece of equipment is stolen or lost, *before equipment is used for a trade in, *when equipment becomes surplus to a department's needs.The Screening Officer handles all equipment transfers, call 874-2574.
A Certification of Unavailability/Unsuitability form (Screening form) must accompany all requisitions to purchase or lease Federal equipment only with a value of $5,000 or more. The screening form is now located on our website under FORMS. The table for screening levels necessary for specific equipment purchases or lease requests can be found in Section 4.30 pages 32-33 of the University User Manual, also located on the website under POLICIES & PROCEDURES. The screening procedure can be found in Section 5.11 pages 36-37. To download that form click here.
