What Is It?
UIC employees, with appropriate approval, may be issued university-owned mobile devices to meet business needs. Technology Solutions handles the management and administration of pagers and mobile devices (and their data plans) centrally, contracted through the State of Illinois.
Features
Pagers
- UIC portal for authentication
- Digital pagers provide an audio or vibrating “alert” signal and display a “call back” telephone number
- Alphanumeric pagers allow you to receive alphanumeric messages (words and numbers) with audio or vibrating alert signal
Technology Solutions maintains a current listing of mobile device offerings from our providers, while also allowing requests for those devices to be routed through an online portal. Our portal then handles authentication and approval before sending the requests on to the provider for order fulfillment. Devices are sent back to Technology Solutions, and the accounts are registered in Technology Solutions’ telecommunications management billing system. The user is then contacted to pick up the device.
Requirements
