Submitting an Operational Contract for Review
An operational contract is all agreements except research and employment.
All operational contracts must be reviewed by the Contracts and Insurance Office prior to signature by an Official Signing Authority. The Contracts and Insurance Office reviews contracts from a risk perspective and offers advice on the risks and legal consequences of the University entering into the contract.
Please note that the contract review is from a risk perspective only and does not include an assessment of the business case underlying the transaction. The head of the academic or administrative unit wishing to have the contract executed is responsible for ensuring that the contract fits within its business and operational requirements. The head must be prepared to recommend execution of the contract and support the recommendation with a brief case statement, if requested.
