About this file

The provided document is a Review and Signatory Authority Chart for Collin College in Texas, detailing the internal contract approval and signing protocols for various types of agreements. The chart comprehensively outlines the delegated contract signing authorities across different departments and contract types, ranging from purchasing and procurement contracts to clinical affiliation agreements, with specific dollar thresholds and review requirements. Signing authority is primarily vested in the District President, who can delegate contract signing to specific roles such as the Chief Financial Officer, Executive Director of Procurement Services, and other designated personnel depending on the contract type and value.

The document specifies nuanced review and approval processes for different contract categories, including provisions for Board of Trustees presentation for contracts exceeding certain monetary thresholds. Notably, standard contracts like Corporate College Training Agreements, PSTC Training Agreements, and Clinical Affiliation Agreements have streamlined review processes, though any modifications to standard forms require pre-approval from the contract administrator or General Counsel. The chart also establishes clear guidelines that no individual can contractually bind the college beyond their delegated authority, and contracts are only considered binding when signed by authorized representatives.

Contract authority is delegated by policy and/or by Board action from the Board of Trustees to the District President. Only the District President may delegate contract authority within the District President’s authority to one or more college employees. Therefore, unless you have delegated authority from the District President, you must not sign any contract on behalf of the college.
