IT Requisitions
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) maintains a standard inventory of technical tools for use at USask. Please click on the boxes below to requisition items from the inventory.
The IT Requisitions site hosts hardware options that are best suited for our campus. These devices are expertly chosen, optimally configured, and efficiently delivered to our USask clients. Our hardware options provide USask users with:
- worry-free computing experiences as these devices are selected due to their compatibility with our existing IT environment
- increased security when integrating with USask systems
- buying power with our vendors and ongoing value to our institution
- consistent hardware streamlining IT Support requests
Update on Computer Pricing and Availability
IT Requisitions would like to inform faculty and staff about current challenges affecting computer purchases across campus.
Global demand for key components—especially RAM and solid‑state storage—has increased sharply as manufacturers shift production toward supplying rapidly expanding AI data centers. This demand is outpacing production capacity, resulting in:
- Reduced availability of standard computer components
- Significant price increases
- Shorter quote‑validity periods
As a result:
- Quotes for specialty equipment are now valid for only 5 days.
- Pricing for standard equipment on our website is only guaranteed while current inventory lasts. Costs may change when we restock.
Planning Ahead
To help ensure timely access to the technology you need:
- Begin purchasing discussions as early as possible
- Be prepared to consider alternate models or configurations
- Act promptly when inventory becomes available
If your unit is planning computer purchases later this year or early next year, we encourage you to reach out so we can help you navigate these constraints and secure appropriate equipment.
📧 Contact IT Requisitions: itrequisitions@usask.ca
If the IT Requisitions site does not have a particular device, we will engage Procurement Operations to source it from an outside vendor.
Computer purchases made outside of, and without the support of IT Requisitions, will be charged a fee*(1,2) for initial setup on the USask network. Assistance with finding the right device is available by sending an email to our IT Requisition specialists.
Notes: PC alternatives integrate more readily into USask systems and support for Mac products may be limited by comparison. A CFOAPAL may be used in place of a PCard, where appropriate.
