Changes to the Process for Purchasing Technology Products and Services Effective July 15

UT Health San Antonio is introducing a new streamlined process for purchasing technology products and services. This new process will involve using the Technology Acquisition Process (TAP) form, which will replace the old Processing of Software and IT Services Transactions (PSST) form. The TAP form is now integrated into the Financial Services/Purchasing catalog in My Service Center (TeamDynamix platform). Requestors can submit a service request in TeamDynamix to purchase technology products or services, which will be tracked as it progresses through the necessary channels. The Purchasing Department will handle issuing a purchase order through PeopleSoft or coordinating the purchase with a OneCard.

With the new process in place, each department’s IT partner will be available to provide assistance and answers to any questions regarding technology, security, and compliance. Some key points of the change include the replacement of the PSST form with the TAP form, facilitation of the process by IT partners and financial specialists, and the ability for requestors to track the status and progress of their technology purchase request at any time.

For more information, employees are encouraged to stay tuned for updates in the coming weeks or consult with their IT partner or Financial Service Center for details. If uncertain about who their IT partner or financial specialist is, employees can refer to the Partner Directory and search for their department under “Departments Supported.”
