Highlights

A decision was requested as to whether the wage decision included in a contract should be amended to reflect certain wage rate changes. The failure of a Department of Labor regional office to forward the prevailing wage information, which was received after issuance of the wage determination, in the solicitation was not considered a clerical error which would permit amendment. A former decision which held that a contract could be modified to include wage rates contained in a union agreement was overruled since there was no evidence that the wage rate determination, as originally issued, was not based on all evidence available at the time or contain rates intended at that time.
