C 20540 i 9&4 FILE: B-215732.2 DATE: August 17, 1984 MATTER OF: IBI Security Service Inc. DIGEST: A disagreement with the legal conclusions reached in an initial decision does not pro- vide a basis for reversal. IBI Security Service Inc. requests reconsideration of our decision B-215732, July 26, 1984, 84-2 CPD . In that decision, we denied the firm's protest against the award of a contract to the low bidder. IBI contended that the low bid was not responsive because the bid was executed on behalf of a corporation without prefacing the signature of the party authorized to sign the bid with the word by. We found the missing by to be nothing more than a minor informality that did not affect the intent of the corporate bidder to be bound by the bid. In other words, we found the bid to be responsive. IBI contends that our decision was legally incorrect because the missing by meant that the party signing the bid did so in his individual capacity rather than on behalf of the corporation thus rendering the bid non- responsive. We find this contention to be nothing more than a disagreement with our legal conclusion that the corporation was bound by the bid. IBI has not advanced any new facts or legal arguments which show that our earlier decision was incorrect so as to warrant its rever- sal. 4 C.F.R. S 21.9(a) (1984). Disagreement with our initial decision does not provide a basis for reversal. Lockheed Engineering and Management Services, Incor- porated--Reconsideration, B-212858.2, Feb. 14, 1984, 84-1 CPD i1 193. The request for reconsideration is denied. Aotint Comptroller en ral of the United States
