It is Campus Information Systems’ intent to provide fast, competent service through the Technology HelpDesk. Staff perform “triage” on every support request. Problems that can be resolved quickly over the phone are handled on the spot. Issues that require further support are prioritized within the following model.

 All requests for support and service are received at the HelpDesk via e-mail at helpdesk@delhi.edu and via telephone at x4835 (4TEK)

 Support tiers are focused on systems in continual use.  This is not meant to encompass new projects and routine operation requests, but rather to provide a general understanding of how functional problems get prioritized.
