All orders for computer hardware must be submitted to IT Purchasing no later than Friday, May 22 to be entered with funding for this fiscal year (FY26). This allows time for the requisition to be submitted and approved in Workday, and the PO processed by the Procurement deadline of Friday, May 29.
IT Purchase Request
To make a request for an IT purchase, please use the Purchase Request Form.
If you need assistance in determining what computers or other IT equipment your department should replace, please contact the UWM Help Desk to request an inventory of equipment. IT professionals can also discuss with you the best options for upgrading or replacing computer hardware.
Fiscal Year Purchasing
Any orders submitted after Monday, May 25 will be automatically assigned to funding for the next fiscal year (FY27). The IT purchase must be charged within the current fiscal year to use current funds.
Please note: most vendors charge on the date the item ships, not the date it was ordered.
