Annual Report to General Assembly due Dec. 31.

In October 2012, the Council for the Procurement of Health, Educational and Social Services was created (Chapters 212 & 213, Acts of 2012). The Council advises the Board of Public Works on the implementation of recommendations made by the Task Force to Study the Procurement of Health, Education, and Social Services by State Agencies in November 2011. Further, the Council monitors the progress made in implementing those recommendations, and may establish subcommittees to target specific issues.

The Council provides a forum for communicating with State agencies on procurement problems and issues, as well as improved procurement management and methods. In addition, the Council reviews existing procurement regulations to ensure that they fulfill the intent and purpose of the law and effectively use State funds.

Eighteen members constitute the Council. Four are appointed to four-year terms by the Governor. The Senate President and the House Speaker each appoint a legislative member. Eleven members serve ex officio. The Procurement Advisor to the Board of Public Works chairs the Council (Code State Finance & Procurement Article, sec. 12-110).
