The accounting office is responsible for payments to vendors, administration of the purchase card program, processing of employee reimbursements, preparation of annual financial statements, and submission of various compliance filings including IRS form 990.


Contract Database

The Contracting and Purchasing Policy (adopted 2017) says Once a contract is executed in accordance with this policy, a final signed copy must be forwarded to contracts-archives@willamette.edu.

Effective August 14, 2023, a new Contracts Database was launched for five departments. Each of these five areas has a delegate who will be responsible for uploading signed contracts to this new database:

  • Facilities: Amanda Kinchen
  • Events: Wenona Mendez
  • Print Center, Mail Center, Bookstore: Jennifer Mathany
  • Accounting: Jennifer Roythorne
  • WITS: Ramona Murtha

All other departments will continue to email contracts (per policy) until further notice.
