New Software Request Process

Summary

Learn more about how to request new software and what to expect when sending in the application.

Body

 

Prior to submission, we recommend reviewing your Software Centre and our Software Catalog in advance to consider alternative software already existing in our ecosystem. If there are alternatives, please be prepared to share justification regarding the new software request. 

Next, visit the Software Hub (LINK) to request approval from your Dean/Director.  

Once the software is approved by the head of your area, an automated email will be sent to you. To continue with the New Software Request, the Initial Privacy Assessment Form needs to be submitted to the Privacy Office and the New Software Request Form in AskIT. The links will be provided in the confirmation email. 

For more details on what happens next after the New Software Request Form, please refer to this knowledgebase article on the overall Software Intake Process
