This article is a Preprint
Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
This work sets out a testing and containment framework developed for reopening universities in Mexico following the lockdown due to COVID-19. We treat diagnostic testing as a resource allocation problem and develop a testing allocation mechanism and practical web application to assist educational institutions in making the most of limited testing resources. In addition to the technical results and tools, we also provide a reflection on our current experience of running a pilot of our framework within the Instituto Tecnol\'ogico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey (ITESM), a leading private university in Mexico, as well as on our broader experience bridging research with academic policy in the Mexican context.
