Create a request in AMS

With the DESY Asset Management System (short: AMS), DESY users can initiate a procurement process for IT-relevant work equipment via https://ams.desy.de/. In addition to the DESY access data, the corresponding cost center number is required for this. If necessary, contact your group administration for a procurement process. Here you will find a list of the responsible Windows group administrations at DESY.

Information on the procedure

After successful creation of a request, 2 approvals are requested digitally.

 

  1. Technical approval by group administration
  2. Financial approval by person responsible for cost center (can be requested from your group administration if necessary).

 

As soon as the approvals have been granted digitally by the persons responsible, an ordering process for the work equipment will be triggered.

In order to keep the period from "creating a request" to "receiving the requested work equipment" as short as possible in your own interest, please note the following points:

  • If possible, obtain verbal permissions from your group administration before creating requests.
  • After the request has been created, the technical approval  (approval 1) by your group administration and the financial approval (approval 2) by the person responsible for the cost centre (can be obtained from your group administration if necessary) must be issued digitally.
  • Since the requested work equipment is not available in DESY in unlimited quantities, (usually short) delivery times of external suppliers may also be relevant.
