  1. My Tri-C Contracts My Tri-C Contracts is designed to help the College have a comprehensive College-Wide repository for contracts, and a tool which standardizes the creation and tracking of all contracts through electronic templates. SciQuest’s Contract Directoris the tool for processing electronic contracts and is designed to integrate with the current My Tri-C Buy / Banner systems. This System is for both Expense /Buy-side contracts and Revenue / Sales side contracts. “My Tri-C Contracts” is Tri-C’s name for this e-Contract system. This training is intended to assist new users in familiarizing themselves with navigating and functioning within My Tri-C Contracts.

  2. My Tri-C Contracts Tri-C is in good company with institutions across the Country in Higher Education who also use eprocurement tools…..

  6. Contract Director Flow Contract Manager Approvers Customer Internal Reviewer • Create • Author • Negotiate • Approve • Execute

  7. My Tri-C Contracts Compliance Reminders for Business Process: Every Contract needs… Customer Address Loaded in Contract System & Finance system ROI Analysis approved ahead of time by Leadership Custom Details on Contract: Detailed descriptions, CRN numbers, dates, locations, materials, costs, etc… Clear expectations with dates, times, and approvals VP / EVP from Tri-C is the final/last eSignature on the Rev Contract

  8. My Tri-C Contracts Very Critical while Negotiating/Red-lining a Contract: Laws of Ohio –always govern – cannot agree to anything else Think about red flag information & how it will be protected Allow anywhere from 1 week to 4 weeks – for the total process, edit time plus approval time. It really depends on complexity of contract, amount of changes-redlines, and size of customer.

  9. My Tri-C Contracts Link/Location: My TriC Space/My Work Tools/Getting it Done Box /My Tri-C Contracts Signing On – Capital S Snumber Password Management Dashboard settings – shortcut

  10. My Tri-C contracts workflow • Revenue Neutral, Construction, & Sales

  11. My Tri-C Contracts Creating a Revenue Agreement • On the Dashboard in Shortcuts => Click the Type of Agreement => Revenue Agreement • In the header main section, in the Primary Template Boxthe Revenue Training Onsite Offsite Agreement should be visible in the box. • All the boxes in the Required section require information. • Customer– start typing the name • External Contact Person – for the contract, who from the customer firm you are working with for redlines or for developing the training contract. • Title - of external contact person – (when not sure – type in “Executive”). • Description – briefly, under 50 characters describe type of training contract (i.e. Lean training, or Leadership workshop training, etc…) • Dollars – Two fields- One for the revenue anticipated/forecasted in the current fiscal year and one for revenue anticipated over multiple years (if multi year agreement, If only a one year or less than one year agreement – revenue should be the same number in both boxes) If your Agreement is for one year only => then both dollars amounts in the boxes will be the same. If it is a multi year Agreement => then one box is for just current Fiscal yr and other box is for the total revenue for the life of the Agreement. • Dates – make sure you are realistic on the start date – go out at least 2 – 3 weeks for processing time. If the training is on Nov 10th – then the start date would be 11/1 and the end date could be 11/30. • Signature Type– always default to electronic • BUL Approver – is usually the VP or EVP who approves revenue agreements in your organization.

  12. My Tri-C Contracts Creating a Revenue Agreement continued: • E-signature Block Section – • Click the “+” and a box opens up – fill in the name and email address for the Customerthat will be signing the • agreement. Select in the box to the right called the “sequence” the number 1. (always select No. 1 for the firm) • Click the “+” and a box opens up, this time fill in Tri-C VP or EVPname and email for who is approving this revenue agreement (i.e. Robert Peterson for Corp College or Michael Bankey or Susan Muha for Workforce) Type in the Number “2” in the sequence box – always. • If you do not have the email address for the actual person signing for the customer company, you can still proceed and can come back later to update that. If you forget and launch it later – it will error out eventually and return to you. • Optional Contract Info Section – • Confidential Box – Typically only Capital/Construction use this plus a few sensitive contracts in the College. This can be very tricky – so if you use this option – talk to Cindy Leitson first. • Parent Contract Box - If there is a master agreement to refer to. • Renewal / Expiration Notices – let the defaults stay as set or if blank type in 30 or 60. Hit Save --- and it will then Assign a Contract Number !!!!

  13. My Tri-C Contracts Creating a Revenue Agreement – Customizing the Actual Template • So, the Contract Header is completed as well as a Contract Number is assigned, now you need to finish off the final contract details in the Main Document / Template and attach any set-up details/exhibits that are important. • Click either on the Home dashboard page or Find Contract • Once you locate the Contract number => Click the Magnifying Glass for that contract to open • On the left hand side of the page => Click Document Management => Main document and wait for the Revenue Training Agreement to open up on your screen • Click View => Click the little Red flag and wait… • Click Check-Out from the bottom remember to save changes along the way often • Update all the boxes for Type of Class/Training/Service, CRN Number, Dates, Times, Cost, Maximum number of participants, billing information, org info and expenses if any, etc…. • Click Save • Section 4 – Off-site or On-site training or both and the corresponding correct legal template depending on whether the training is off-site or on-site. In the upper left corner, the icon directly to the right of the printer icon, looks like a spreadsheet – click the arrow of that, then click the second option “Questionnaire”. After you click on questionnaire – click the best answer for your training: onsite, offsite or both; Save / OK, X out of questionnaire. • Go to Section with Signature Block– Type in Title for Tri-C VP or EVP(the person who approves the revenue agreement). Type in the Title for the Customer company who is signing the contract. Both titles should Not be on the line, but should float above the title line so as not to mess up the Docusign formulas. If you are unsure of the Customer Title – just Type in “Executive”. • Click Save, click Check-in, and then Close.

  14. My Tri-C Contracts Customizing the Actual Revenue Agmtcontinued: • If you also have attachments to include with the contract; then underneath Document Management => click Attachments, then click “All attachments” & follow directions below. If you have no attachments you are done creating the Revenue Agreement ! Adding Attachments so everyone can view – both Customer and Tri-C can view: • For Attachments: Click Attachments under Document Management • Click All Attachments • Click Upload • Click +Add Files • Then select the file in your H: drive or whatever drive and then click Open • Click Start Upload • Attachment is now added, and you can add as many as you like !

  15. My Tri-C contracts workflow • Revenue Neutral, Construction, & Sales

  16. My Tri-C Contracts Now that your Contract is done – What do you want to do with it ?? Route it to the Customer for redlines/edits first ?? Then use Word IO function under Document Management to export it to a Customer(see Page 19) of this hand-out to see the detailed instructions on how to send to a supplier. Route it to Internal department folks or to Legal/ Dept Director for their input and redlines to the agreement ? Click on Respond to Workflow Then click on Forward Function and send it to someone for their edits and return. You can only Forward to One person at a time; this is important because multiple edits can overwrite each other and unintentionally can mess up the document legally. Also – audit tracking gets messed up that way as well. The above two options are all part of the Edit Mode / Draft Mode. Your document can and will stay in the Edit Mode until you are sure all final edits/redlines are complete and have all been communicated and accepted – then and only then is it ready to be “Released” or “Launched for Final Signatures / Approvals” – hard work flow.

  17. My Tri-C Contracts Recommended Process for an Edit Mode Contract Priorto Releasing the Contract for Approval/ Signature workflow: Send out (via Word IO – import out) the contract to the Customer initially to get their input and edits Send to 2 -4 internal dept people, in order of hierarchy, with highest ranking going last Send to other depts that might need to review: IT (Standish Stewart), Legal (S. Northcraft), and/or Risk Mgmt (Marvin Richards) Send final to Department Head or BUL Informal Approver – so they can send note and say Approved. This is part of the regular, process today – it will now be done so that you can have more tracking of the document and of the reviewer for audit trail purposes.

  18. My Tri-C Contracts Releasing a document into Approval/Signature workflow: Select the Magnifying Glass for the Contract Number you would like to release Then on the left side scroll bar –above the Contract Number – scroll over Respond to Workflow *Before you do this, make sure when you click View Contract and the header pops up – that you have the Electronic Signature email address for Sequence 1 filled out with the proper person’s email and there First and Last Name and the reqnumber is filled in in the optional section. Click Release It will route to the following people in this order: BUL - the name you selected on the header for the BUL Approver They will get an email stating they have a Contract to Approve, it will give them Contract No & description of contract Legal Approver – Legal review and approval Customer Email for signature in Docusign for eSignature Tri-C EVP/VP (CC or WEDD Revenue VP/EVP) email for their electronic eSignature Contract Administrator (Scales/Holmok/Leitson) – then marks for final “Fully Executed Status” Once “released” for Approvals/Signature – it can only be approved or rejected --- No Edits allowed – it will be frozen. When Customer gets email – it will say it is from Cuyahoga Community College and it will have Cindy’s phone /email on it.

Now type in theCustomer’s email address in the To: column. Delete the older header info, about 4 lines, from the previous email so it does not confuse the customer. Personalize the email to the customer,for ex. add in the body of the email at the top “Dear Tom” and don’t forget to add your phone number somewhere in the body of the email, so if the customer has questions about the contract, he has a number to talk with someone. Click SEND. *Remember to follow up on the customer so that his redlines/ changes come back to you in a timely manner.* Receiving a Contract back from a Customer – and uploading back it Tri-C Contracts Take the file from the customer and save it to your H: drive so you know where it is.
