Overview

Hardware Asset Management for Cornell Ithaca supports asset lifecycle management by streamlining procurement, deployment, maintenance, and decommissioning workflows and acting as a single source of data for institutional devices to inform decision-making, investments and security.

Centralized processes capture information about devices when they are purchased. The system provides easy, fast, consistent data access, dashboards, and management to support better decision-making and operational efficiency. 

Hardware Asset Management changes are part of the Endpoint Asset Management Project. Tools being used seed Cornell's Hardware Asset and Lifecycle Management data of record. They include inventory information on Cornell University Ithaca's device fleet, both managed and not managed. Devices will be captured at the time of purchase with Dell, Apple, and CDW-G purchase integrations.

CIT is reaching out to IT Service Group Directors and Desktop Services Managers, who are being actively engaged to form a priority list. The documentation library is being built now and will be available soon for IT Service Groups.
