=DIIT Repair Policy=

Effective **March 17**, when you place a call for **__hardware repair__** with the help desk, you will be informed whether the cost of repair will be covered centrally. The DOE will cover the cost of computer hardware repairs only when the computers are less than five years old. Beginning March 17, if you need to **__replace any parts on any computer that is more than five years old__**, you will need to fund these repairs out of your budget at a cost of $400 per incident. The fee covers parts and, if necessary, multiple visits by technicians to resolve the problem. We will continue to provide support for all issues related to the Operating System and network connectivity. Please email me ff you require assistance in determining the status and age of your school’s computer inventory, or if you require guidance to determine if the cost of a repair is justified. **Technology Manager Division of Instructional & Information Technology (DIIT) Queens Integrated Service Center | NYC Department of Education **** Voice: 718-391-6855 | Fax: 718-391-6887 **** [|Click here to request technical support or to check status of a problem ticket]
