LSU Overview: Process for Acquisition of Software and Digital Resources (IT100) for LSU A&M

To provide continuous improvement and high quality of services regarding all of LSU's software and digital resource acquisition needs, Information Technology Services, in collaboration with the Digital Resource & Content Committee (DRC), IT Governance Council, and Procurement has introduced a streamlined software acquisition process.

This process removes redundancies, increases overall process efficiency, and provides LSU faculty and staff with a more seamless process. Information security, protection of university data, and ensuring LSU is using software products that meet accessibility standards are the fundamental drivers for review of software acquisitions. This review also allows the university to confirm that LSU funds are being maximized and duplication of software purchases are reduced where possible.
