How do I prepare a requisition to engage an independent contractor to perform services?
A requisition must be prepared in Internet Procurement Application with a completed Request for Consulting or Independent Personal Services Form (RCIPS) attached. The form can be found at http://rias.rutgers.edu/formsrequirements.html. The Buyer will review the RCIPS to determine if the worker is properly classified as an independent contractor. If so, the Buyer will work with the requesting department to develop a “Consulting Agreement” that will be signed by the individual performing the requested services. Upon receipt of the signed agreement, the Buyer will issue a regular purchase order to the individual. If the Buyer concludes that the worker should be classified as an employee, the requisition will be returned to the Preparer.
