Agiloft FAQs

Per the , all contracts (legally enforceable agreements) must be entered into Agiloft, the University's contract management system.

4.  How long will it take for my contract to be reviewed?

The contract review process is dependent on a variety of factors, but generally, department/submitters should anticipate a two-week internal review period. The review time may vary depending on but not limited to, the following:

      1. the number of teams queued to review the contract
      2. the completeness and accuracy of the contract record (all documents are included and information about the contract is provided)
      3. the complexity of the services or products the University is contracting for
      4. the vendors timely response and their acceptance of requested modifications

Contracts submitted during the beginning or end of a fiscal year or calendar year may require additional time. When a contract needs to be reviewed quickly, please reach out to the approval teams that are pending with a request that they expedite.
