Request Additional Software

If you wish to request additional software on a particular podium or in a particular lab, pay close attention to the requirements for it.  These requirements, if any, will be found in the same section as the software itself, or on the Software Change Requests page.  The requirements for new or additional software requests require advanced notice.  

If the software you are looking for is not listed in one of the sections above, we will consider it as "new software".  In that case, requirements are more stringent.  The information found above and on the Software Change Requests page will help you plan for what you need.

Requests for version upgrades to existing software will generally be treated the same as requests for new software, except as specifically indicated above.

Even with the simplest software requests, nothing is guaranteed.  Lab and Podium systems are very complex, and what works in one version may not work in another.  The best policy is to let support@wm.edu know immediately when you find out what software you require, even if it is several months in advance.  Advance notice guidelines in the Requirements sections above refer to minimum advance notice, and more advance notice, though not mandatory, is always better.
