Contract Administration can assist in establishing a Scope of Work for your required service, and will work with you through a solicitation process or prepare a proposal for a new service requirement.
Once Contract Administration receives an accurate invoice from the Contractor/Vendor for work completed, the invoice is promptly processed based upon Virginia’s Prompt Pay Guidelines.
Contract Administration staff verifies receipt of all services associated with the invoice. If all services are verified, the invoice is marked as "approved" and "received" in Banner.
Contractors can check on status of payment for a particular invoice/purchase order by contacting Contract Administration staff:
