Dates for the Computer Refresh Project Set:
New Computers are on the Way

For several months, Technology Services has been encouraging each Team Plano member to prepare for the 2022 Computer Refresh Project (CRP). Installation began in June is going well.

This effort replaces our aging desktop technology and:
          •    Improves security while reducing cyber risks
          •    Modernizes technology and increases productivity
          •    Provides easier management of various hardware and software
          •    Offers quicker problem resolution and so much more

What this means for you?
      •   By now, all laptop and computer desktops should be CLEAN of personal files  
          (documents, photos, etc.)

      •   Likewise, all work files should have been MOVED and SAVED to the “L” drive
                  ~   None of the files on the Desktop will be moved over to the new machines. This
                        includes items in the Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures and Videos folders
                        located under “This PC.”

                 ~   Once new machines are installed, Tech Services WILL NOT be able to                             retrieve your unsaved desktop files
                         NOTE:  See Dos and Don'ts below!
