Evergreening of data collector laptops

We aim to "evergreen" our laptops by replacing 1/4 of them every year, meaning none should usually be older than 4 years. See workstations.mdb for current laptops and PCs.

ICU/Med split

Currently some icu laptops are used by med collectors and vice versa. Since the process is now different for the two, the laptop's owners are now tracked in workstations.mdb.

p:Tina Tenbergen has a reminder task scheduled for two months before the next laptop expires to talk to Tom about replacement in a timely manner.

Leased, CC paid laptops

2 months before the lease expires, ask Tom to order a new laptop. See workstations.mdb for dates.

Randy usually orders 8 months later to avoid double-payment for new laptop not yet deployed, and old laptop not yet returned. There is a 1 month grace period after lease expiry where we can return the old laptops and not be charged double. Randy agreed to allow us to order as before if we make sure we push eHealth into meeting the 1 month grace period.

Purchased, Medicine paid laptops

Template:Discussion There is discussion about running these until they fail now. I am still negotiating with Tom on that. Ttenbergen 22:10, 2018 February 1 (CST)
