The Maryland State Board of Contract Appeals

The Maryland State Board of Contract Appeals

ing the formation of State contracts, except those

services. Contract formation disputes include
those concerning the qualification of bidders or of-
ferers and the determination of the successful bid-
der or offerer. The Board also is empowered to
adjudicate all disputes relating to a contract that
has been entered into by the State, including those
disputes involving the performance, breach, modi-
fication, or termination of a contract. Decisions of
the Appeals Board are subject to judicial review,
and any aggrieved party, including a State agency,
may appeal a final decision or any part thereof. At
the request of a party to a proceeding, the Board
may subpoena witnesses and documents and may
compel the testimony of witnesses.

The Governor appoints the Board's three mem-
bers to five-year terms with the advice and con-
sent of the Senate. Members serve in a quasi-judi-
cial capacity and must have a thorough
knowledge of procurement practices and process-
es. They serve full-time and receive compensation
as provided for in the budget. The chairperson is
designated by the Governor (Code State Finance
and Procurement Article, Division II, sec.
17-202). Published opinions of the Board are
