Requesting an Employee Key

KU is moving way from physical keys and implementing electronic devices that provide access using a KU Card. However, there are still some cases where physical keys are needed. Keys can be requested through the following process:

• Requestor completes online Work Request in Maximo and specifies the person(s) to be issued the key(s).
• Locks, Access and Security Technology Services (LASTS) reviews criteria and notifies the requestor of approval/denial, and provides requestor a cost estimate if requested.
• LASTS produces the key(s) for approved requests.
• LASTS notifies the requestor when the key(s) are ready for pick-up.
• The requestor and/or the recipient sign and date the key receipt and a digital copy of the signed receipt is stored by LASTS.
