Service Agreement
 

 

 

The standard University Service Agreement may be used with private business or industry to expedite service work other than sponsored projects. If the private business/industry accepts and signs the "standard" agreement exactly as is, the negotiation process is eliminated and work may begin immediately upon obtaining the University signature. However, if the sponsoring private business/industry requests any change to the "standard" agreement then it must route through the negotiation process with the University Attorney Office.

Please note that a University Service Agreement is used only for service performed in collaboration with private business/industry and the service work does not meet the definition of a sponsored project. Such effort is not considered "sponsored projects" and does not come through the Office of Sponsored Programs. Instead, the Department forwards the "standard" agreement if not modified for signature by the University Contract Officer. If the "standard" agreement is modified by the sponsoring private business/industry the faculty member/Department works directly with the University Attorney Office in the negotiation process.
