A subcontract is a contract between the Missouri S&T and another entity in the performance of a prime contract.  Missouri S&T can be the prime contractor of the subcontractor. These contracts can be for materials, equipment, or services.  See below for further explanations.  The following are two (2) different types of subcontracts:

• The first type is where Missouri S&T is actually the subcontractor.  We receive a subcontract that provides funding to the University through a sponsor holding the prime award.
• The second type is where Missouri S&T is the prime contractor and we issue a subcontract from the University to provide fund to another institution or company for work to be performed under the University's prime award.  A standard University subcontract is issued.  Negotiation may be required.
