The goal of proactive and comprehensive compliance compels UT Austin to provide contractors with a range of compliance assistance tools and resources. The tools and resources under development include a contractor recognition program that highlights implementable best or model contractor practices, a contractor mentoring program that uses contractors to help their peers improve compliance, and other initiatives that provide opportunities for contractors to collaborate or provide feedback to UT Austin on its compliance assistance efforts. Ultimately, this recognition would not be for contractors that solely comply with legal requirements, which all are expected to do, but would be for contractors that are innovative thought leaders among their peers.
