Author: Diane Kennedy, Procurement Services

Contractsnd Buynd V4


Procurement Services and the Office of General Counsel have announced the addition of contractsND, a new, easy-to-use University contract system that debuts Monday, Dec. 14.  contractsND, which will be housed in the buyND+ system, digitizes and stores all contracts into a central repository, providing a way for stakeholders to search for and review various University contracts. 

The contract management system is:

  • Compliant
    It's the default pathway for contracts to be executed for the University, and ensures compliance with University policy and contractual terms. 
  • Visible
    See your full contracts ecosystem in one place. Never wonder who has the ball and never miss a renewal date.
  • Efficient
    Fully integrated with DocuSign. Paper free and consistent workflows ensure a faster, more integrated experience.

In preparation to use contractsND, Procurement Services will offer demonstrations of the contract request form which initiates the contract creation process. If you already have access to buyND+, you will have access to the contact request and management capabilities. If you do not currently have access to buyND+, please contact Procurement Services, buy@nd.edu

More information on demonstration sessions, training videos and FAQs can be found on our contractsND web page, buy.nd.edu/Contract-Management
