F.2d 1233 (Ct. Cl. 1970).
The protester objected to the award of a contract for
an electronic shelf filing cabinet system. The figure used to
calculate the load stress of the floor under the.proposed filing
equipment was different from that set forth in the reuest for
propsuals; the failure to amend the request for proposals to
indicate the change and permit offerors to submit revised
proposals Was improper. The award on the initial proposal basis,
without discussions, was improper since there was technical
uncertainty regarding the floor load stress. The offeror was not
entitled to proposal preparation costs because it did not appear
that the offeror would have received the award except for the
Government'E action. (Author/SC)
