Identification

Property Identification

WSU equipment with a unit cost of $5,000 or more is assigned a property number by Property Control. That number is used to identify equipment on the University property records. The property number is printed on a label, and where practicable, affixed to the item and should not be removed by the department.

Each WSU building is assigned its own property number and each building addition, improvement, renovation or remodeling project with a total cost of $100,000 or more is posted as a component (-001, -002, etc.) of the building property number.

WSU land is assigned its own property number and each land addition with a cost $100,000 or more is posted as a component of the land property number.

Each type of WSU infrastructure item (Improvement of Grounds, On-Campus Parking, Electric Distribution, Roads, Sprinkling Systems, Storm Sewers, Telecommunications, and Water Lines) is assigned its own property number and each addition, improvement, renovation or remodeling project with a cost of $100,000 or more is posted as a component of the base property number.
