The Maryland State Board of Contract Ap-
peals was established by Chapter 775, Acts of
1980. It replaced the Board of Contract Appeals
which had been part of the Department of Trans-
portation (Chapter 418, Acts of 1978).

The Appeals Board is empowered to adjudicate
all disputes concerning contracts that have been
entered into by the State, except those for pro-
curement of architectural and engineering ser-
vices, including but not limited to those involving
performance, breach, modification, or termination
of a contract. Decisions of the Appeals Board are
subject to judicial review, and any aggrieved par-
ty, including a State agency, may appeal a final
decision or any part thereof.

The Board consists of three members appointed
by the Governor with the advice and consent of
the Senate for four-year terms. Board members
serve in a quasi-judicial capacity and must have a
thorough knowledge of procurement practices
and processes. They serve full-time and receive
compensation as provided for in the budget. The
chairperson is designated by the Governor.
