Submitting Security Exception Requests

With the new IT procurement process, state agencies use the Ariba Sourcing Tool to submit standards and security exception requests to the N.C. Department of Information Technology for approval.

There are two types of standards and security exception requests:

Those associated with an active IT procurement
Those not associated with an active IT procurement

For requests associated with an active IT procurement, submit the completed standards or security exception request forms and supporting documentation through the Ariba Sourcing Tool.

For requests not associated with an active IT procurement, users have two options for submitting: the Ariba Sourcing Tool or email.

User Role	Ariba Sourcing Tool	Email
Agency User	Download the latest standards or security exception request form from NCDIT’s website. Submit the completed forms and any required supporting documentation to agency procurement.	Email a completed standards or security exception request form and supporting documentation to NCDIT at dit.exceptions@nc.gov.
Agency Procurement User	Create a sourcing project (not a Sourcing Request), and select Solicitation Vehicle to be IT: Exception Request Only. Attach the completed Standards or Security Exception Request Form and supporting documentation to the applicable approval task in the sourcing project, and submit it to NCDIT for approval. The information will be sent first to agency IT security for their approval.	-
NCDIT Reviewers	Review and provide an approval decision to the submitted standards or security exception request.	Enter the submitted standards or security exception request form into the Ariba Sourcing Tool, on your agency’s behalf, for processing.
