(3) All contracts for construction/renovation will originate from university facilities along with associated purchase orders. Purchase orders will originate from the requesting department upon approval by university facilities.

(4) The requesting department must obtain a signature from university facilities (located on the professional services agreement) authorizing any construction/renovation project. No work will be started without a signed contract and purchase order.
