Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Colorado State University collected FY19 purchasing records from Facilities Management, Housing & Dining Services, the Student Recreation Center, and the Lory Student Center. The total spend for cleaning products was determined by evaluating purchasing records specifically related to the types of cleaning products listed the STARS Technical Manual. While there remains room for improvement, this percentage is similar to previous STARS submissions for CSU. Regarding janitorial papers, a similar process was utilized and a more uniform set of products are purchased by these various campus groups. And, a very high percentage of purchases met the STARS Technical Manual criteria. Spreadsheets built for the analysis can be viewed upon request. Contact Stacey.Baumgarn@colostate.edu
