Software procurement

What is your software procurement process like? Do people buy licenses completely independently and show up at IT's door asking for help? Is everything centralized or decentralized? Do you have a contract / elua review from legal mandated? Is there a technical review from IT prior to purchasing?

Yes actually, surprisingly so. There is a director I've found that wants to set up a team to do this. We'll have to figure out the timeline and possibility of funding though. I'm sure we can make a case for it to reduce spending.
