Workstations, peripherals or software that are purchased with non-appropriated funds do
not require LCCB or Commandant (G-SIA) approval. However, no unit shall seek
support from its ESU, the MLC (t), TISCOM or RSM for any items procured with non-
appropriated funds.
d.

will require an approved request, submitted in accordance with this Directive, before
installation. The term "handheld computer" does not include subnotebook-size or
lightweight portable workstations.

Units that have normal business requirements above the ,000 threshold, such as Coast
Guard data centers, may ask for special exemptions from Commandant (G-SIA).

For efficiency, individual requests approved by LCCBs may be aggregated into purchases
that exceed ,000.
