The document is a decision from the Maryland State Board of Contract Appeals regarding a bid protest filed by Southern Maryland Cable, Inc. (SMC) against the Maryland Department of Budget and Management (DBM). The Board dismissed SMC's appeal due to the untimely filing of the protest, which was not submitted within the required seven-day period as mandated by COMAR regulations. Additionally, the Board found that SMC's use of electronic means to file the protest was legally ineffective since the RFP did not authorize such transactions. Consequently, the Board concluded it lacked jurisdiction to consider the appeal.
