Following the announcement of tighter restrictions on resourcing decisions, the process by which the University will appoint external contractors, consultants, and agency staff has changed.<\/p>\n
Any request for external resource, such as Non Payroll Agency Staff, Contractors, or Consultancy, must<\/strong> be approved by the new process<\/a>. This approval must <\/strong>be included as an attachment on any Requisition raised on UBW and will be rejected if not included. There will be no exceptions to this process<\/u>.<\/p>\n This also aligns with the “No PO, No Pay” initiative : you must have a Purchase Order before instructing any external resource. Any Purchase Order must have approval and authorisation in place and attached to the Requisition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Following the announcement of tighter restrictions on resourcing decisions, the process by which the University will appoint external contractors, consultants, and agency staff has changed. … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":55180,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[137335,137355],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2725"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/55180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2725"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2725\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2735,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2725\/revisions\/2735"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2725"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2725"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/finance-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2725"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
