Microsoft Project for University-Owned Systems
To order Project or Visio:
- Email southeastteam@shi.com and request a quote. The quote can take from 48 to 72 hours to be generated but, once it is, it will be emailed to you.
- After receiving the quote back from SHI, submit a PO in uShop with the quote attached. The vendor is SHI (Somerset, NJ)
- Attach your quote to the requisition and submit it in uShop to SHI (Somerset, NJ).
- Be sure to change the Ship To section to SERVICE ONLY.
- Code the request as Software Subscriptions.
- For an annual subscription, change the unit of measure to year (YR).
- For renewing orders, reference your prior PO number as a continued reference for all.
- Nicky will email you a confirmation receipt with your order number. This can take from 24 to 48 hours for the order to be processed.
- Once the order has processed, you will receive an email confirmation.
- Attach the license confirmation to a TAC ticket for software installation and be sure to state who is receiving the license.
- ITS will “apply” the license to the correct individual in Office 365 and then that individual will be able to install the software from the O365 portal.
- A ticket will be sent to the computer consultants to assist you with getting the software installed.
These new licenses are leases (not purchases) and are co-termed to match the annual campus agreement so the cost, is different each month and everything expires in June. So, regardless of when you order, you will need to re-order each year, in June, to continue to be able to use Project and/or Visio. It's very important that you order/submit your PO the same month you receive your quote and before the quote has expired. If you don't, SHI will have to request a new quote which will delay the order further.
