As part of the University's contract review process, the CWRU IT Contracts Team is responsible for reviewing any University contract that includes an IT related component prior to such contract being executed. The information on this site is provided to help facilitate and expedite the processing of contracts once they are routed to IT Contracts for review. Please direct any questions that you may have to utech-contracts@case.edu. The IT Contracts Team will be happy to provide guidance related to the IT contracts process as well as answer any questions that you may have.
