Brief Form Contract Templates
Used for Lump Sum Contracts up to $1Million
The Brief Form contract templates listed below can be used by the University for any project with an estimated contract sum of up to 1 million dollars. For complex or riskier projects use the Long Form. Most Brief Form documents are identical to those in the Long Form; although some documents are written specifically for the Brief Form.
The following documents are approved by the Office of the President and Office of the General Counsel for use by the Facility. A facility may place its logo on the Cover page. Each template document starts with a cover sheet and set of instructions. These instructions are for the Facility only and should not be added to the Contract Documents when distributed to the Bidder or Contractor.
Documents identified as "core documents" shall not be modified by the Facility. Any revisions to these templates are made and issued by the Office of the President.
