Contracts and other legal agreements

If you need to procure merchandise or services that a) require acknowledgement of terms and conditions and/or b) exceed $15,000.00 in total, then the procurement justification or procurement award must be based on university guidelines regarding informal bids, formal solicitations, or exclusive acquisition justifications. Please review each tab below for specific guidelines based on your dollar amount.

We are never allowed to sign a vendor’s contract. Only Business Contracts is allowed to sign contracts for every unit within the university. For campus policy information, see the Handbook of Business Procedures, 7.4. Purchasing Process - General Information.
