Contract Administration
WSC contract administration overview - Personal Services Contracts: Info and Process
WSC Contracts
The Contracts function of WSC Procurement and Contracts serves to ensure that established standards of good business practice and good contract management principles are applied to the College’s contracts, minimize risks to the College in its contractual relationships, and ensure that the College’s contracts comply with the State’s laws, rules and policies.
The WSC Contract Administrator writes, reviews, and oversees all aspects of contract development, processing, negotiation and execution for the College. The Contract Administrator facilitates contract legal review, conducts annual review of multi-year contracts, processes contract amendments and renewals, and is available to train and support contract managers and processors in the College’s departments. The Contract Administrator provides assistance with terms and conditions understanding and clarification, contract dispute resolution, and contract termination.
Authority to Sign Contracts
All College employees should be aware that only the College President, with limited delegation to other College officers, has authority to sign contracts and commit the College in a contractual arrangement. Any contract, agreement, lease, license, etc., that is presented for a College signature that will agree to legal terms and conditions must be sent to the Contract Administrator for review and advice for an appropriate processing procedure.
