If you wish to order items of computing equipment for a university department, please contact staff in the Computer Store who will be happy to discuss your requirements.

Consumable items, such as laser toner cartridges, and any Computer Store product can be ordered on a Computing Consumables Requisition Form. Contact the Computer Store for copies of this form.

Computers and most software must be ordered via the Efin system. If you are not sure who your authorised Efin user is, contact administrative staff in your department. The Computer Store will provide you with a quote (excluding VAT) for the equipment plus any information you need to complete the Efin requisition order. The prices you enter into the Efin system should also exclude VAT.

When ordering computers please check whether you will need any additional equipment, such as ethernet cables. If these are not ordered, it will cause a delay in setting up the new equipment. See our Guide to departmental purchasing of computers for more information.

There are standard desktops for both Windows and Apple computers. Computers will be supplied with university standard software. See the section on Your university computer for more information.

Delivery: Equipment will be delivered to your department. Once you have received it, you should contact the IT Helpdesk to arrange for it to be set up.
