CMS is an internet-based application that allows UAB employees to route contracts, organize files, track progress, and more.

All contracts must be added to the Contract Management System (CMS) prior to entering the departmental routing process. CMS features include:

  • Assigns a contract number prior to departmental approval
  • Tracks contracts through the routing process (e.g., Office of Counsel, Information Technology, University Purchasing)
  • Allows viewing of comments or questions from reviewers
  • Stores contract data in a central location by organization

Note: Contracts that include software or an IT component require IT approval before being entered into CMS. Please visit the IT contracts website .

To request CMS access, email uabcontracts@uab.edu.

Contract organization view is based on an employee's primary assignment. To request access to additional organizations, email UABContracts@uab.edu.
