Importance: High

 

Helo all,

 

As suggested by a past co-op student [Peta-Gaye] we are looking into assets
from PAS 1084 to be repurposed. As she indicated TechDirect (dell.com)
<https://tdm.dell.com/ars/asset-appraisal/create-asset-appraisal?guest=true>
is a great site to determine the value. With this initiative, we are able to
leverage some equipment to test drive, in particular interactive display
screens.

 

If you have other assets you think should be repurposed, chat with Jameson
so the co-op may consider.

 

More later once we have more data, but preliminary results prove very, very
promising.

 

Again, hats off to the co-op team with such a great suggestion, all relating
to the new goals (Sustainability
<https://uwaterloo.ca/associate-provost-co-operative-and-experiential-educat
ion/about/united-nations-sustainable-development-goals> ) with CEE
