Re: Giving University Employee a consultant agreement Gregory K. Schmidt 23 Jul 2009 21:02 EST
This could apply to ex-employees, too. We had to review a consultants agreement with a person that left our association. I think there's a check list. If I can find a copy I'll post it if there's interest in it.

Wondering if any one can provide me with some additional information. We currently have a part time employee who owns his own consulting company and wants to give his company a consulting agreement for a new award from NIST. Since he is a part time employee he can not be the PI on this project. There will be another employee assuming the PI role for this project. We have told him that he can not have his company provide these services because it goes against A-21 section J-37 (professional service costs). They are suggesting that he will resign as an employee so that he can abide by the guidelines and take on the consulting role. We do not think this is a good idea, does anyone permit this? And if so is there a federal regulation that you are following? Any information would be helpful. Thanks!!! Heather L.
