Prince George’s County Board of Education and Board of Community College Trustees for Prince George’s County – Vendor Registration PG 503–26

HB 589 requires Prince George’s County’s Board of Education and Community College Trustees to accept any vendor registered with Prince George’s County for procurement purposes, eliminating the need for separate vendor registrations with these entities. This bill directly affects local schools and the community college by streamlining their vendor processes to align with the county’s existing registration system. Key provisions mandate that both boards must recognize county-registered vendors and optionally enter into a memorandum of understanding with the county to implement this change. The law takes effect October 1, 2026, creating a unified vendor registration approach for county education-related procurement.
