Carlos, Our effort to maintain a supportable campus computing environment is called the "Campus Workstation Program", and details can be found here: http://oit.nd.edu/computer-service-center/institutional-purchase/campus-workstation-program-cwp/ We operate on a four year lifecycle, although we regularly look at how long we retain systems to balance hardware life versus costs. We offer a variety of standardized systems via our procurement system, and our CWP representatives typically use those. Custom system configurations are done via a consultation process when needed. We separate encryption and build standards from the workstation program, which allows us to align standards to expertise (our information security team handles OS standards in partnership with our platforms teams and field IT support staff, for example).

Good Morning Colleagues, We have a College that is wanting to create more equitable and standardized Computer Replacement Guidelines/Standards for Faculty, Staff, Temp Staff and Employee students. If you have a policy/guidelines/standards that addresses when to replace, what to buy, encryption requirements, etc., I would highly appreciate being pointed to your policy. Thanks in advance and happy computing, Carlos, *Carlos S.
