We are thrilled to introduce TIMS, a game-changer for UNCW departments. This innovative system will streamline computer inventory management and efficiently track computers submitted for surplus. By leveraging the TIMS powerful reporting features, we will gain valuable insights into the computers utilized on campus, allowing us to optimize the university Lifecycle Computer Replacement Program. Together, we can enhance efficiency, improve reporting, and ensure the smooth operation of computer resources.
To facilitate a smooth transition to the new system, we have created a SharePoint site with information and resources to help you manage your department computer assets. You will find these resources in the Technology Inventory Management System (TIMS) hub.
TIMS houses over 8,000 campus computer assets with plenty of storage for additional assets. Stay tuned as we add more technology assets to the system in the future, including mobile devices.
Self-guided - TIMS – Technology Inventory Management System Training
The course is located in MySeaport under Percipio. We recommend that faculty and staff who manage computer assets check out the training.
We have good news! This past year, the UNCW ITS Training Team worked hard to record and transfer the Digital Accessibility courses from an instructor-led format in the Dare to Learn Academy to an on-demand format in Percipio.
We hope you’ll take a few moments to login to Percipio (formally SkillPort) and look around today!
UNCW employees are strongly encouraged to take the IT Security Training to help you identify the strategies hackers use to access your information. The training takes less than 30 minutes and provides engaging scenarios to put your knowledge and skills into action.
ITS appreciates your dedication to protecting our campus users and information resources!

We’re excited to share that the second phase of our Sammy file server retirement plan has begun. In this phase, we will collaborate with departments to move data from Sammy/Departments to SharePoint and/or Teams. Our goal is to complete all departmental transitions by Sept. 30, 2023.
To get started, our project managers will contact department representatives to coordinate the transfer of files and data.
Once a plan is in place, our team will provide a report to the department representative highlighting any potential issues. These issues could include items such as:
It's important for the department to correct any filename issues that may arise, prior to the migration. Since the filename will need to be changed, departments should decide what filename works best.
Once all issues are addressed, our team will assist with moving your data according to a predetermined schedule.
The data from Sammy/Departments will be copied to a new document library. Depending on your needs, your department can decide whether to:
To ensure a smooth transition, the content on Sammy will be set to read-only. This means that individuals will still be able to access files but won’t be able to make changes or create new content. All updates and new files will be made within SharePoint/Teams, ensuring a streamlined and collaborative environment.
We are dedicated to making this transition as simple and seamless as possible for your department. Together, we’re moving towards a more collaborative & seamless working environment.
