The Contracting function at University of Texas System Administration is a collaborative effort, involving:
- Department employee "Contract Administrator",
- Office of Business Affairs,
- Office of General Counsel,
- HUB Development,
- Accounting and Purchasing Services, and the
- Vendor(s).
Some departments, such as Office of General Counsel, Office of Facilities Planning and Construction, Employee Group Insurance, Office of Risk Management, and Travel Services have a high volume of contracts and have developed sophisticated contract processes to monitor and manage them. Employees in departments with minimal contracting activity work closely with members of the collaborative group to receive guidance throughout the process.
