How Much Time Should I Allot for the Contracting Process?

The Contracting Process typically takes 52 business days from the date business terms have been finalized or 42 business days from the date final business term exhibits are provided to the Contract Specialist.

Contracts that do not require the Hartford Office of the Attorney General’s approval can typically be finalized within 42 business days. Contracts that require neither the Hartford nor the Storrs Office of the Attorney General’s approval can typically be finalized within 32 business days.
