Contracting
Required Contract Terms
Our component universities are Texas public institutions of higher education. As State agencies, we are required by Texas law, the directives of the Attorney General, and Rules of our Board of Regents, to include certain provisions in all System and university contracts. These provisions are incorporated by reference in OGC-approved forms and are accessible at the link below.

Contract Review
麻豆天狼副利院鈥檚 Regents鈥� Rules require the Office of General Counsel to review all significant contracts. For more information about OGC鈥檚 review process and what contracts require our prior review, please see System Regulation 07.03

In many instances, use of these OGC-approved forms without modification to substantive legal terms will avoid the requirement of OGC review. If your university enters into agreements for which we have not yet developed an approved form, our attorneys are happy to assist you in developing an appropriate document.
University Contracting Policies
OGC reviews contracts pursuant to 麻豆天狼副利院鈥檚 Regents鈥� Rules and System Regulation 07.03, and we develop forms and offer legal advice in service to each component university. Please note that OGC cannot initiate, approve, or execute any contract on behalf of your university. You must coordinate procurement and contracting with your university鈥檚 business office, in accordance with your university operating policies and procedures.
