DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE,
Respondent.
The case caption as the decision prints it. Every word is kept; the rule the Board draws around it is not text, so it is not repeated here.
Surendera Kumar, President of Engineering & Environment, Inc., Virginia Beach, VA, appearing for Appellant.
Maj. Douglas E. DeVore, Office of the Staff Judge Advocate, Headquarters, Air Force Reserve Command, Department of the Air Force, Chicopee, MA, counsel for Respondent.
Before Board Judges VERGILIO, ZISCHKAU, and SULLIVAN.
SULLIVAN, Board Judge.
On August 7, 2018, the Board docketed the appeal of the June 19, 2018, contracting officer’s decision terminating for default a contract between appellant and the Department of the Air Force. The Board lacks jurisdiction over this matter because the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals is the board responsible for hearing appeals involving Department of the Air Force contracts. 41 U.S.C. § 7105(e)(1)(A) (2012). Although the contracting officer apparently provided the website address for the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals (www.cbca.gov) when the appellant asked for information on the Board to which it could appeal, this information was incorrect.

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Engineering & Environment, Inc., CBCA 6228. Nothing is summarized or reworded, and the sections run in the order the Board wrote them. What the page shows and the text does not repeat is the pagination furniture: the page numbers and the rules the Board draws around its caption and under its signatures. The signatures are set back into the columns the Board prints them in, each judge under the name he or she signed, and the typed copy of that name the page carries beneath each signature is not repeated.
