There are often strict sponsor requirements as to the allowability of contracted services in an agreement. Before making any commitment to an organization for contractual services, an electronic purchase requisition must be prepared. A task description providing the information specified in this policy must be sent as an attachment to the requisition. Upon completion of the services, the approved ICPC must be attached to the check request to initiate payment to the individual. The dual employment forms are available from the Business Affairs web site.
Forms are standard university forms.
The person to whom the check is issued will be reported to the federal government for tax purposes. Due to these requirements, contracted services should not be paid by the PI, only directly to the contracted person with a Non-University Employee form attached. ORA is the signatory authority for the university. Subject writings include such items as reports, books, journal articles, software, databases, sound recordings, video tapes, and video discs. Except as otherwise specified in the grant or by this paragraph, the university may own or permit others to own copyright in all subject writings.
