: Re: How should I phrase "requests" to a higher-ranked individual in another department? At work, I lead a small team of programmers. I often have to request equipment and services from our I.T.

Please provide a new PC and email account for John Smith

This phrasing is fine. You have the right to request these items, and this is a direct, respectful way to make the request.

Would it be possible to provide a new PC and email account for John Smith?

This phrasing says that you aren't sure you have the right to make the request, and reads as if you are cringing in fear as you ask.

If you have any doubts about the right way to ask, check with the CIO. "What is the preferred way for me to request a computer and an email account for new employees?"
