Thct swo protesters objected to the contracting
officer's Jiding that their respective bids were nonresponsive
because of a deficient bid guarantee atd bid bond. A bid
submitted by n corporation must be rejected where the bid bond
was issued to a joint venture, but the award would be to only
one member. The bidder was roquired to furnish bid guarantee for
the full 60-day period specified in the invitation for bids,
even though the invitation indicated that the contract would
commence 28 days before the bid acceptance period expired. The
contracting officer was not required to consider whether
necessary State and local licenses had been obtained when
determining a bidder's responsibility. The protest was denied.
