Contractor Management

Prior to engaging a Contractor, a HR Contractor Assessment Form must be completed - please refer to the HR Contractor Management website for guidance on the process.

The outcome of the Contractor Assessment Form will be emailed to the University staff member advising them of the payment process. If the outcome is for the payment to be processed through Finance; one of the following processes needs to be followed.

Which process do I follow?

Raise a Requisition - for services provided that are reflective of an individual’s time; payment for these services would be supported by an invoice to the University specifying these services.

Other Payments Form - requests for payment that are not reflective of an individual’s time.
