3 Introduction This Policy and Procedure Manual has been prepared to provide Academic and Administrative Schools and Offices (referred to as Unit Contract Representative in this document) with a reference guide for contracting goods and services on behalf of the University in a uniform manner. It is essential that uniform contract management policies be established so that standards of efficient business practice are maintained within the University and in cooperation with businesses, trade associations, governmental, and private agencies. These policies and procedures are the guidelines supported by the Offices of Finance and Administration and University Counsel. 3

4 CONTRACT MANAGEMENT POLICIES 4

5 CONTRACT MANAGEMENT POLICIES 1. Authorized Signatories Non Standard Agreements It is the policy of the University that contracts may only be signed by persons authorized by the President and the EVP for Finance and Administration. Authorized signatories include: The Executive Vice President, Treasurer The Vice President-Finance, Associate Treasurer Signature Decentralization Pace Standard Agreements Only Authorized signatories from the University units may be designated by the Office of the Vice President-Finance, Associate Treasurer. 2. Insurance It is the policy of the University that, when applicable, evidence of insurance required by Pace pursuant to an agreement must be submitted prior to final approval and signature. Most contracts contain an insurance provision, which requires that the vendor supply Pace University with proof of insurance coverage relating to the services provided under the agreement. Proof of insurance is generally in the form of a certificate of insurance with Pace University named as Additional Insured. A contract will not be accepted for review unless the certificate of insurance is submitted as part of the contract documents. Any modifications to University standard insurance requirements must be approved by the Executive Director of General Services, in advance of submitting contract documents. Written confirmation of approval must be submitted as part of the contract documents. 3. Honoraria Unit Contract Managers may use the Acknowledgement of Speaking Engagement and Speaking Engagement Payment Letters to invite and pay guest speakers. These letters may be signed by the Unit Contract Manager and do not require review/transmittal to Purchasing & Contracts. Speaking Engagement and Speaking Engagement Payment letters may be sent directly to Accounts Payable when the guest speaker has satisfied his/her engagement with the University. The invited speaker must meet the following criteria: 5

6 Requirements for Use of the Speaker Engagement and Payment Letters A. Individual is limited to a speaking engagement on campus or at a University sponsored event. B.

B. Catering Agreements Routine catering requests for food delivered on campus can be paid with a purchase order or other means approved by Finance and Administration and need not be reviewed by University Counsel. Routine catering requests include, pizza deliveries and lunch/refreshments for meetings and/or seminars.

7 Note: It is the responsibility of departments to exercise due diligence in selecting restaurants, catering halls and other event space to conduct outside special events. Part of that due diligence, for example, may involve general inspection of the premises to make sure that there are no obvious health or safety issues and obtaining confirmation of non-discrimination policies of the establishment. 5. Standard Agreements and Riders There are a number of Pace standard agreements that have been developed by the Office of University Counsel. Unit Contract Managers should use standard agreements whenever possible. Standard agreements that are signed by the vendor, without modification, do not require University Counsel review. and may be forwarded directly to Purchasing & Contracts for Finance and Administration signature(s). Note: Standard agreements that have been approved for signature decentralization, and have not been modified, may be signed by the unit Designated Signatory. A copy of the signed agreement must be submitted to Purchasing & Contracts. 6. Independent Contractors Whether a worker should be classified as an employee or an independent contractor is determined in consultation with the Office of University Counsel. Step 1: Step 2: Step 3: The Unit Contract Manager of the Pace office wishing to retain the services of an independent contractor must complete an Independent Contractor Questionnaire. Complete the relevant sections of the Consultant Agreement. If the worker has his or her own agreement, forward that agreement and the Service Agreement Rider to University Counsel for review as provided in Step 3. Submit the questionnaire and proposed contract documents to Purchasing & Contracts for University Counsel review. University Counsel will inform the department and Finance and Administration by of its determination and whether the independent contractor must provide insurance. 7

8 Step 4: If it is determined that the worker is an independent contractor, and the contract is approved as to legal form the contract (and rider, if applicable) will be forwarded for Finance & Administration signature. 7. Approvals There are a number of contracts that require additional approvals from other authorizing departments prior to submission to Purchasing & Contracts. Please check the Contract Type List on the Contracts Administration web page to determine whether a contract requires prior approval by an authorizing department. In addition to specific contract types, if a contract involves or contains a provision relating to the following issues, prior approval by the authorizing department is required: Program or Service Alumni Programs Software/Hardware Agreements Marketing and Advertising of University Public Relations Consequences Use of Pace Trademark or Name Access to Web Page Gifts, Bequests, Scholarships Planned Giving Student Travel and Study Abroad Scholarships, Tuition Remuneration Authorizing Department (Executive/Academic Officer) Office of Philanthropy Division of Information Technology University Relations University Relations University Relations University Relations Office of Philanthropy International Programs Director and Dean Academic Affairs 8.

Payments for vendors under master agreement may be processed with work and purchase orders throughout the term of the agreement. 8

9 CONTRACTS MANAGEMENT FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 1. How do I get my (non-standard) contract reviewed and approved? Step A: Review the contract. Make sure it contains all of the provisions agreed to between the parties (see 2.1 Elements of a Contract). If it is the vendor s agreement, check the Standard Riders to see if there is an appropriate Pace rider to be attached. Step B: Obtain insurance certificate from vendor (if applicable). Step C: Obtain vendor s signature on contract and rider (when rider is applicable). Step D: If payment is required enter a purchase service request on the online purchasing system. Or, if the contract is with a consultant who is an independent contractor, complete the Independent Contractor Questionnaire and the Independent Contractor Payment Request Form. Step E: Complete the Contract Review Form. Step F: Submit the Contract Documents to the Contracts Administrator in Purchasing & Contracts, i.e. Contract Review Form, Contract, Insurance certificate and any required Attachments. 2. What is a contract? A contract is a written agreement created to inform all parties of their legal obligation to one another and to express in writing their mutual understanding. When the provisions for obtaining goods and services exceed the terms of the University s purchase order terms or, when there is no financial obligation on behalf of Pace there must be: A written agreement or promise between the University and a third party to commit the University s financial or human resources, or otherwise obligate the University to perform an act or service. At such time, a written document should be developed that reflects such a promise. 9

10 2.1 Elements of a Contract: Legal Name and Address of the Vendor Financial Terms Responsibility of Parties/Scope of Service The Contract May also Include Standard Terms and Conditions: Term and Termination Clause Insurance Indemnification Assignment Clause Warranty and Representation Confidentiality Use of Pace s Name and Trademark Compliance with Antidiscrimination Laws Notice See Definition of Elements on page. 2.2 What are the different types of contracts? There are a number of distinct types of contracts that are entered into on behalf of the University. Appendix I is a list of typical contract types engaged by the University. 3. What is the penalty for not complying with these Policies and Procedures? A non-standard contract is invalid and unauthorized if it is not approved by University Counsel and signed by an Authorized Signatory. 4. What is the Contract Management System? Pace University is concerned with controlling its resources and ensuring that commitments of University resources are made in a cost-effective and efficient manner. To that end, the process for engaging, negotiating, approving and signing contracts is computerized and monitored. The University has implemented an imaging solution for tracking and monitoring contracts through the various points of review and approval. Originating units are able to monitor the status of contract approval at every stage of the process. Contracts will be submitted to the Contracts Administrator in the Purchasing & Contracts Department and input on the imaging system. 10

11 The Contract Management System: Provides an electronic database of University contracts. Allows contracts to be received in one primary area. Provides University Counsel immediate access to review and approve contracts electronically. Provides Unit Contract Managers with electronic access to view contracts and review/approval status information. 7. Who Should I Contact with Questions About..

Only confirmed training participants will be assigned system access. Access will be granted through the Financial Systems department after training attendance is confirmed. The originating unit representative will be notified by when access is granted. 13

14 Responsibilities of the Originating Unit The Unit Contract Manager drives the contract review and management system. It is the responsibility of the Manager to conduct the initial contract negotiations with the vendor to make sure that the minimum provisions of the contract have been agreed to between the parties. Step 1: Review the Contract for Content The Unit Contract Manager should review each contract it receives to determine that the minimum components of a contract are present. Legal Name and Address The Unit Contract Manager should ensure the legal name of the vendor is reflected in the contract. The Unit Contract Manager should contact the vendor to make sure that the name reflected in the contract is the legal name since many companies operate under assumed names or variations of the legal name. Financial Terms Each contract should have the correct amount agreed to be paid by the parties and the means and method of payment. The exact amount should be in the contract, the party responsible for payment, the date the payment is expected and the means of payment, if applicable, i.e. whether the payment will be made in installments or in one lump sum payment. Responsibilities of the Parties/Scope of Work or Service Every contract should outline the duties and responsibilities of each of the parties. Contracts where Pace is requiring the vendor to perform a service or complete a task or work product, should have a detailed description of the scope of work or service to be performed and time frame for completion. The Scope of Work can be part of the contract or it can be attached as an exhibit. Term and Termination The term or length of the contract, including start date and end date, should be clearly stated in the agreement. The basis for early termination should also be clearly stated in the agreement. 14

15 Additional Terms and Conditions The Standard Terms and Conditions are the additional elements of the contract by which the parties will be bound. Terms and Conditions may include the following: Insurance The agreement should outline the level of insurance required to be provided by the vendor. Indemnification The agreement should contain an assurance that the Vendor will be responsible for its negligent acts and omissions. Assignment Clause whether the agreement can be assigned to a third party. Term and Termination Clause The agreement should state the agreed length of the terms and the circumstances and the means by which the agreement can be terminated. Warranty and Representation whether the vendor can give Pace a warranty on the work performed or equipment installed. Confidentiality The Vendor should represent that it will not disclose confidential information provided by Pace to any third party. Use of Pace s Name and Trademark Pace s department of University Relations must approve the use of the University name and trademark. Compliance with Antidiscrimination Laws Pace will not do business with vendors that do not comply with federal anti-discrimination laws. Notice how, to whom and to where notices of any event under the contract will be sent to the parties. 15

16 Appropriate Attachments There are a number of additional attachments that may be required under a contract. For example, many contracts will require that the vendor insure the University against general liabilities or physical harm to employees, staff or students. In these cases, the Originating Unit Representative should ensure that Standard Insurance Requirements are included in the contract. In addition, the certificate of insurance should be attached to the contract. See Checklist 1: Contract Considerations Step 2: Complete Applicable Fields of the Contract Review Form Once the Originating Unit Representative has reviewed the contract, he or she should complete the Contract Review Form.
