Description
Service contracts entered into by county school boards are not subject to State General Procurement Law or to jurisdiction of Maryland State Board of Contract Appeals. Before us is a procurement dispute between three school bus contractors, appellants here, and the Anne Arundel County Board of Education, appellee. The precise issue is whether the Maryland State Board of Contract Appeals (MSBCA), created to resolve disputes arising under the State General Procurement Law, has jurisdiction over that dispute. The larger question, which the parties agree governs that issue, is whether the procurement of services by a county board of education is subject to the General Procurement Law. We shall answer that question in the negative and thus affirm the judgment of the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County which, in turn, affirmed MSBCA's dismissal of the procurement protest by the bus contractors.
