Cornerstone User Information

Moves, Adds, and Changes

When becoming a Cornerstone site, each agency signs a Cornerstone Equipment Agreement. The Agreement specifies:

• IPHCA will be responsible for the installation, movement and relocation of all Cornerstone Equipment installed in the Agency.  Agency staff are prohibited from moving Cornerstone equipment.
• No other computer equipment will be purchased or installed by the Agency for use in the Cornerstone System without the express written consent of IPHCA.  The only exception to this provision is equipment purchased through the IPHCA’s Authorized Vendor Program.
• On an annual basis, the Agency will conduct a complete physical inventory of all Cornerstone Equipment installed at the Agency.  Due to IPHCA's obligations for accurately tracking equipment, Agencies MUST have completed the most recent physical inventory before the Agency can participate in any MAC activity.

The IPHCA/CQA Hardware Services unit is directly responsible for performing Moves, Adds, and Changes (MACs) of Cornerstone equipment at the local agencies. By working collaboratively with DHS' Regional Cornerstone Liaisons, this group ensures that disruption to the agency is minimal.
