Outlook
Outlook is the main way of communicating with office staff. If you have issues with your Outlook, visit the IT Service Center. Every permanent Engineering employee has an email, field and office staff.
Zoom
City Engineering uses Zoom for regular meetings. General staff use basic, free accounts with a limited 45-minute meeting time cap. Engineering also has two upgraded accounts to use for public information meetings and bigger meetings. Email Hannah Mohelnitzky, hmohelnitzky@cityofmadison.com for access to the upgraded accounts.
Calendars
Office staff is required to keep calendars up to date in Outlook.
New Software Request Policy
Even existing City software can only be added to your computer with the approval of your supervisor. Please discuss your request with your supervisor prior to sending a request the IT Service Center. When your supervisor agrees on the need for the software, send the request to the IT Service Center and copy your supervisor on the request.
New IT Hardware Purchase
Requests for new hardware should be discussed with your supervisor. Once agreed upon, your supervisor will make the request to IT using the appropriate venue for that approach.

When working remotely or not on the City network, to access City drives, folders and specific City-secure sites, you need to log onto the VPN.
