M2S1: About ASF’s Paper Consumption Model

ASF’s Paper Consumption Model is a statistical tool that helps schools both predict paper consumption and determine appropriate paper expenditures based on various factors such as departments of interest, total number of faculty, month, etc. Trained on data collected from the academic setting, ASF’s consumption model utilizes regression modeling to create a customizable consumption plan, tailored to help individuals schools minimize their harmful environmental impact whilst streamlining expenses. Through this model, schools can not only reduce their current costs for paper purchases but mitigate their harmful environmental impacts while educating themselves and students on sustainable paper consumption.
