The PSC is constantly working to further incorporate sustainable best practices into how we support and guide purchases throughout the CU System

You can find sustainable purchasing guidelines within each of the applicable commodity listings on the PSC’s Commodity Listing.

These guidelines intend to:

  • Encourage the purchase and use of materials, products, and services that best align with CU’s fiscal, environmental, climate change, social, community, and performance goals;
  • Reduce the environmental and social impacts from the purchase and use of products;
  • Empower department and university purchasing staff to innovate and incorporate best-practice sustainability strategies and practices in procurement decisions;
  • Communicate CU’s commitment to sustainable procurement by modeling the best product and service choices.
