C. 71B Approved Private Schools subject to the authority of the Bureau of Purchased Services within the Operational Services Division (OSD). 808 CMR 1.00 also describes the methods used by OSD in authorizing prices for M.G.L. c. 71B Approved Private School special education Programs.

Where a Contractor utilizes a Subcontractor to provide some or all of the Human and Social Services or in a Program approved by ESE under M.G.L. c. 71B, the subcontract between the Contractor and the Subcontractor shall require that all provisions of 808 CMR 1.00 shall apply to the Subcontractor as well. As 808 CMR 1.00 applies to services purchased pursuant to M.G.L. c. 71B, it also applies to Commonwealth Local Education Authorities (LEAs). OSD or its designee shall issue policies, procedures, and forms related to contract compliance, accounting principles, auditing standards, and pricing as may be determined necessary by OSD to implement the provisions of 808 CMR 1.00 and 801 CMR 21.00: Procurement of Commodities or Services, which are in addition to the terms of 808 CMR 1.00.
