Highlights

The apparent low bidder on one item on a bid form containing three price schedules protested the proposed award of the contract to the low bidder on the composite schedule. The withdrawal of a bid under one schedule because of a mistake did not contravene the requirement for a bid price or "no bid" for all items. It was proper to accept the bid of the low aggregate bidder even though a mistake was made in one schedule, since the mistake had no effect on the combined bids, and the aggregate award was in the best interest of the Government.
