MIS Request - What does it all mean?

Section I - Requested For - Employee Info (Required)

Uploaded Image (Thumbnail)

Today's Date: The date you are submitting the MIS Request.

Employee start date/date needed: When the user needs the equipment. Please also remember we like to have a 2 weeks notice when setting up a user with equipment. This gives us the proper amount of time to order equipment, clear the bench/queue of previous requests, setup the device with no/minimal errors, and then ship out to you. 

Name: The end user who needs equipments' name. Please double check the spelling.

Job Title, Department, Job Site: All self explanatory. If the Job Title ever needs to be changed, you need to contact payroll.

HR Section (Legal Name, Preferred name, Pronouns, Certifications): HR will fill this portion out, but please make sure the information you provide HR is accurate. It is important the preferred name is provided, as this is difficult to fix later.

Section II - Authorization

Requester Name: Printed name of requester.

Manager Name: Printed name of manager approving the request.

Requester Signature/Manager Signature: If you do not have access to a scanner and cannot sign this, a Bluebeam signature is also accepted.

Section III - Account Type

Company: The company that the end user will be part of.

Model Account after current employee: This copies the permissions and groups that the end user will be a part of. For example, if User A has access to get into the L:\ drive, and we copy User A's account to User B, then User B will also get permission. You cannot leave this blank, and must choose an existing employee with a computer account that you would like to be copied from.

EC/EFS ONLY (Viewpoint/Vista Service/Project Sight): Viewpoint is part of the Trimble Construction One suite, offering a job costing system capable of managing projects across multiple companies and regions. Service Management is a tool that allows you to streamline small job work order processing, increase field technician productivity, and improve service quality and cash flow. Project Sight is a construction management software for general contractors, subcontractors, and engineers to help manage all of your projects from a single-source of collaboration and information for all project stakeholders

Priority ERP PSW Group Security: Please choose the department you are in. Please also choose the functionality you will need, either a Service Office or Field Technician license. 

Office 365 Licenses: An E1 is what we sometimes refer to as our cell license. This is actually a group of licenses (that don't pertain to the end user), but in a nutshell, if you are only using a cell phone, this is the license you need.  The E1 licenses also only have access to the mobile and web versions of Microsoft Office (M365). If you are going to be using just a computer or a computer AND a phone, then you need an E5 or the computer license. An E5 license is also able to use the desktop versions of Microsoft Office (M365). If the end user already had a phone, and they are being upgraded to a laptop, the E5 still needs to be checked as they are being upgraded from an E1 to an E5. 

*NOTE* If you already have a computer and are requesting for a new phone, you will need an E5 for both to work. If neither boxes are checked, and the user is pre existing (not a new hire) then we will assume that they will keep whatever license they already have. Please make sure you are checking for the correct license or else you will lose functionality with your device(s). 

Section IV - Equipment

Equipment: Most of these are self explanatory. However, a common misconception is that the tablet and Surface Pro are the same. The tablets are the Galaxy Tab Active Pros (SM-7547). These typically are used for technicians within PSW. The tablets do not have the Windows operating system, but rather are the same operating system as the Samsung S23 (Android OS), just on a much larger screen. If you need specifications of the devices, please create a ticket and we will be happy to share as the generations of each model are constantly changing and vary in specs.

Peripherals (Wireless Keyboard/Mouse, Monitor, Surface Dock, Docking Station HP): Self explanatory. Please double check what you are asking for. If you need monitors, will you also need docking station(s)? If you already have docking stations, do you have the correct model?

Phone: Flip phones are typically for people that will be going into the FAB units and are not supposed to have access to their camera. The Samsung S23 FE and iPhone SE are our base models we are currently providing, but these are subject to change due to inventory and EC standards. Please do your research or ask MIS for more information before selecting one. End users typically see the iPhone option and don't realize the screens are small and have a home button. Please also ask the end user what they need/prefer BEFORE asking for a device to be shipped out to you.

Software: Different job sites may need different software packages. If you do not see software that you are constantly and currently using, please let us know and we'll update the form!
