Software

For more information, contact the Help Desk at (208) 426-4357, helpdesk@boisestate.edu, chat, or Help Desk Self Service

As you consider software you wish to purchase, the Boise State Project Management Office (PMO) team will ensure the software is reviewed for the safety and security of our campus community. The PMO team collectively checks for compatibility with Boise State’s existing IT infrastructure, compliance with University policies, and adherence to best practices and IT standards. Boise State stands to save resources by reducing redundancy and unifying toolsets.

Campus Solutions:

Software Review Requirements

Any software must be reviewed by the Software and Accessibility Review Board (SARB). A SARB request must be submitted prior to the procurement of requested software. SARB reviews are then required for every contracted period of time between the University and the vendor as well as when there are any changes to the way the software will be utilized and/or who will utilize the software.

Boise State University’s Software Application Inventory

In an effort to reduce redundant software across campus, SARB maintains a list of approved software that has been reviewed for the safety and security of the University. Please refer to the University Application Inventory to determine if an existing approved software meets your department’s needs. Though software is on the list, a SARB request is still required for any new or renewal procurement as indicated in the SARB webpage.

Contract Review Requirements

Additionally, all university contracts, including software contracts, are subject to state law requirements and university contracts policy and procedures governing their administration and are subject to review by the Office of the General Counsel or a university representative who has been authorized to review and negotiate contracts. Contact the Procurement Department for more details.

State Contracts:

If you cannot find the software you need in the resources above, The State of Idaho Department of Purchasing’s has established mandatory Statewide Contracts for software.

For help using these contracts, contact John Lim, johnlim@boisestate.edu.

For help using these contracts, contact Melissa Atkins, x6-3363, mmatkins@boisestate.edu.
