Each month the
Property Management Section distributes to each department,
a supply of equipment tags and a request for Tagging information
for equipment purchases made the previous month.
Tagging Request for
Information:
- Tag number (If it is not possible to place a tag on
the equipment, please indicate such, and a "Y" asset number
will be assigned by PMS)
- Part of asset number (if applicable)
- Building
- Room
- Corridor
- Movable/fixed
- Manufacturer
- Model number
- Serial number
- Ownership
- Description (if different from the description found
on the tagging request)
After receipt of the Tagging request, the department should note that there are three possible tagging situations
- The item can be tagged:
Place an equipment tag on the equipment in a visible location and return the form with the requested information to the Comptroller's Office in a timely manner.
- The item cannot be tagged and is part of another piece of equipment item
There are some items that cannot be tagged due to the physical nature of the item. An example would be the internal components of a machine. While these items cannot be tagged, they are most likely "part-of" an item that is tagged (or tagable). For these items, indicate as "Non-Tagable" and include the tag number that the item is "part-of" on the form. Return the form with the requested information to the Comptroller's Office in a timely manner.
- The item cannot be tagged and is not part of another tagable item
For any items that fall into this category, complete the requested information at the bottom of the form and indicate "Non-Tagable" in the Tag Number line and return the completed form to the Comptroller's Office in a timely manner.
