All purchases of technology/equipment with university funds must be inventoried, tagged and tracked. To ensure the proper tracking of purchases, two avenues for purchases can be used.

1. The department will purchase the equipment, receive it, tag it and then distribute.
2. The End user purchases the equipment.  Once the equipment model number and serial number are emailed to savtech@uw.edu, A UW tag will be sent to the end user to be applied to the new equipment.  After those steps are complete, reimbursement for the purchase will happen.
