Explanation:
契約とし is the same as 契約として

Sorry, I didn't really understand your question. So, I translated までの契約として which seemed most important here.

The whole sentence could be drafted as follows:

(Both parties agree) at the time of the contract renewal in October 2003 that the contract is extended until March 2004 and will be renewed in April 2004.

Hope it helps.

Explanation:
2003年10月の契約更改時に、2004年3月までの契約とし2004年4月に契約更改を行うこととする。

At the time of novation hereof in October 2003, it shall be agreed that this agreement shall expire (or terminate) on the end of March, 2003, and shall be novated in April 2004.

I think "更改" might be not "renewal" but "novation".
It seems to me that "までの契約とし" might mean the expiration or termination of the agreement.
