The
Personal Service Agreement (often
referred to as a PSA or Form
CO-802A )
is a contract for professional or technical services between
the University and individuals, partnerships or corporations. These
contractors are not employees of the State, but are hired for a
fee to provide services that are infrequent and unique, and primarily
noncompetitive in nature.
