(806).
Organization Concerned: Government Printing office.
Authority: B-185890 (1976). 8-184603 (1976).
The Government Printing office requested an advance
books and pamphlets. The insertion a! 25% where the bidder was
required to indicate that he was bidding either basic price plus
a parcentage, minus a percentage, or without change, createl
ambiguity which could not be resolved from the bid itself. The
bidler should not be allowed to explain the seanina of the bid
when he is in a position Eo prejudice the other bidders by
clarifying his bid after bid opening. The contracting officer's
evaluation of the bid as plus 25% was proper. (Author/SC)](ViewImageLocal?handle=hein.gao/gaobaderh0001&div=1&collection=&method=preview&ext=.png&size=3)
