Jaggaer Contracts + Contracts Management System Update

Earlier this month, Purchasing and Contracts launched Phase 1 of the Jaggaer Contracts + Contracts Management System. This end-to-end solution will manage every phase of contract development, including initiation, negotiation, approval, execution, renewal, and expiration.

Currently, Phase 1 includes the Internal to Purchasing Department and Office of General Counsel only. Phase 2, scheduled for early next year, will expand access to campus users, allowing them to submit contract requests, view contracts, and receive notifications of contract expirations.

Actions to Take Now:

1.    Request Contracts from Suppliers in Word Format:

• Ensure all contracts are provided in Word format (system requirement)
• Attach Word contracts to your requisitions

2.    Supplier Communication:

• Contract Notifications: Inform Suppliers that they will receive notifications from notifications@network.jaggaer.com with a Nevada System of Higher Education header.
• Redlining & Routing: Inform suppliers that any redlines they accept or add will be recorded when they attach them to system-generated emails

3.    Ongoing Collaboration:

• Our team will also be working closely with suppliers throughout this transition.
• Provide supplier contact details to your buyer
