Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

Figures reported include institutional-level purchases only (laptops and copiers), as obtained by aggregating purchase orders to primary vendors. Ad hoc electronics purchases made by individual departments via P-cards are un-trackable due to the limited information provided in P-card statements. Such purchases are subject to spending limits and would only represent a minimal portion of all electronics purchases.
