I have seen both, including the IT only placing an order one day before someone was starting.

In my own experience as an IT tech, this is still on HR because HR is still adding people to the job past the deadline to be able to ship stuff out in time. We do what we can but we're not miracle workers. Can't ship stuff to someone if we don't have their name or address.

I worked in this specific space for a couple of years and it can be a shockingly complex process. The standard workflow is oftentimes simple, but it’s full of exceptions and considerations on both the HR and IT side.
