Strategy 1 - Training

Training of personnel allows the employees to be more efficient and safe in their daily activities and enables them to serve the campus community to higher level.
Strategy 2 - Green Cleaning
Continue to implement and expand green cleaning practices.
Green cleaning practices promote campus health and sustainability because substances used are sustainable, non-toxic and non-butyl with low VOCs.
Strategy 3 - Student Employment
Employ and train students.
Research has shown that students who are employed on campus have a much higher rate of success in their academic careers.
Strategy 4 - Workload Analysis
Analyze workloads and reorganize work assignments to optimize employee efficiency.
As conditions change and new square footage is added, work assignments may become unbalanced. Analysis and reorganization will optimize employee effectiveness.
Strategy 5 - Inspections
Continue to implement standardized inspections to measure cleaning service levels using the APPA standards to benchmark against state and national sister institutions.
Accurate measurement will allow more effective management of custodial operations.
Strategy 6 - Equipment Replacement
Continue a systematic program to replace and upgrade the custodial equipment.
Equipment has a finite life and requires replacement on a regular basis.

The Custodial Department has a gas vehicle for another electrical utility cart. The average expected life of 10 years.
