Question
Can I move my office computer equipment to a new location or department on campus?
Answer
It is BGSU standard operating procedure that most computers assigned to an employee stay with that employee until either it is replaced by ITS, or the employee leaves BGSU; at which time it will be returned to ITS inventory. If an employee moves departments or offices, the computer and associated equipment will move with them.
Situations in which BGSU employees are not permitted to move their equipment to a new location/department on campus are outlined below. If your situation falls under one of the below circumstances, please do not move your equipment to your new location. In all other situations, employees may move their devices with them.
- Employees moving from an Auxiliary Department to a Non-Auxiliary Department.
- Employees moving from a Non-Auxiliary Department to an Auxiliary Department.
- The computer has specialized software that is only on that device.
Once you have moved your devices, please notify ITS so information can be updated. If you need assistance after your move, please contact our Service Desk.
