Appendix F <br /> Program Guidelines for Issuance of Information Technology Equipment <br /> The City of Pleasanton recognizes that department heads and middle managers are involved <br /> with projects that may create the need for work to be completed off-site and outside of normal <br /> working hours. To address this situation, the City may provide the information technology <br /> equipment needed to complete those projects. The technology will generally be provided <br /> through the use of notebook computers that are assigned to individual departments and/or <br /> through the assignment of information technology equipment that may be located in an <br /> individual's home. The uses of this equipment shall be consistent with this program. <br /> Notebook Computers <br /> As part of the City's information technology equipment inventory, notebook computers are <br /> assigned to individual departments. The number of notebooks available shall be determined <br /> as part of the annual budget review as approved by the City Manager. Departments are <br /> responsible for developing a sign-out procedure that assures the equipment is properly <br /> accounted for. Employees shall not install any application software or hardware in notebooks <br /> without prior approval of the Director of Information Technology . To assure proper operation <br /> of the equipment, any maintenance or performance issues should be brought to the attention <br /> of the Information Technology Division as promptly as possible. <br /> In addition to notebooks assigned to individual departments, upon recommendation of a City <br /> department head, the City Manager may approve the purchase of notebook computers to be <br /> assigned to individual employees. Use of these machines shall be consistent with the <br /> guidelines for stationary information technology equipment listed below. <br /> Stationary Information Technology Equipment <br /> City-provided information technology equipment for installation in an employee's home may <br /> include personal computers, printers, FAX machines, computer software and Internet access <br /> through the City's existing Internet equipment. The program does not include hardware <br /> upgrades to information technology equipment owned by department heads and/or middle <br /> managers. All equipment assigned under this program shall be purchased by the City and <br /> Page 40 of 44 <br />
