UWSP accepts requests for projects through this common request process. This is a yearly process, and each request will be evaluated on availability of resources, funding, and need with the Vice Chancellors and Chancellor ultimately approving, delaying, or declining a request.
For 2026, requests will be accepted starting Tuesday, Dec. 2, 2025 and are due Friday, Feb. 27, 2026.
Requests are accepted mid-cycle, however, most will be held for the next review cycle. If you have a urgent request mid-cycle, please contact the IT Project Management Office.
What should be requested through this service?
A request should be submitted using this service for any work requiring substantial IT or Facilities efforts. Even if an effort will be fully funded without institutional money, it should be requested through this process as it is likely to need some effort from IT or Facilities.
For more information on what constitutes a IT project, please see the Definition of a IT Project (Projects vs Requests or Operations).
If you have questions on if a request should be submitted, please contact the IT Project Management Office.
Who should submit requests?
Any faculty or staff can submit a request. However, we ask that you first coordinate with your Dean or Director before submitting a request.
