Three ways to help save unit money in the coming fiscal year are to minimize Microsoft software contract fees, to turn excess IT hardware into the Defense Reutilization Management Office and to minimize Reports of Survey.
The Microsoft annual software contract fee is based on the number of PCs and laptops on an IT equipment custodian’s account. All items, regardless of whether or not they are in use, are included in the contract fee. Any equipment not being used should be turned into DRMO so it may be used by other agencies.
Turning in excess IT equipment is fairly painless. Not only will this free-up storage space around the work center, but it will lessen the likelihood of lost/misplaced equipment. The Systems Acquisitions and Management office in Bldg. 2126, door 2 on Ramstein will help equipment custodians with the proper forms and provide education on the removal of assets from their account. Hours are 8 to 11 a.m. and 1 to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday. Call 480-2666 for more information.
Reports of Survey for missing items occur for numerous reasons, but the most common one is due to relocation. It is imperative that all personnel inform their quipment custodian before moving any IT assets. (Courtesy of the 435th Mission Support Squadron)
