Who can sign a contract?
Only an individual with a written delegation of authority may execute and deliver contracts on behalf of the University. A University contract without an authorized signature may be invalid and unenforceable and assumes personal liability for the contract.

I have a technology contract (i.e. hardware, software, cloud/SaaS, web services), what information do I need?
Please work with your IT supplier to answer the IT Contract Standards Questionnaire.

Please contact Josh Harmon if you or the supplier have any questions about this questionnaire.
