Utah Admin. Code R23-1-606 - Errors in Bids
The following shall apply to the correction or withdrawal of an inadvertently erroneous bid, or the cancellation of an award or contract that is based on an unintentionally erroneous bid. A decision to permit the correction or withdrawal of a bid or the cancellation of any award or a contract under this rule shall be supported in a written document, signed by the director.
(1) Errors attributed to
a bidder's error in judgment may not be corrected.
(2) Provided that there is no change in bid
pricing or the cost evaluation formula, errors not attributed to a bidder's
error in judgment may be corrected if it is in the best interest of the
division and correcting the mistake maintains the fair treatment of other
bidders.
(a) Examples include:
(i) missing signatures;
(ii) missing acknowledging receipt of an
addendum;
(iii) missing copies of
professional licenses, bonds, insurance certificates, provided that copies are
submitted by the deadline established by the director to correct this
mistake;
(iv) typographical
errors;
(v) mathematical errors not
affecting the total bid price; or
(vi) other errors deemed by the director to
be immaterial or inconsequential in nature.
(3) The director shall approve or deny, in
writing, a bidder's request to correct or withdraw a bid.
(4) Corrections or withdrawal of bids shall
be conducted in accordance with Section
63G-6a-604.
(5) If there is any deficiency or failure to
submit a required subcontractor list or bid bond, the division may request that
the bidder who is not in compliance, submit the required subcontractor list or
bid bond by 5 p.m. of the next business day after notice is provided by the
division. Failure to cure the deficiency or failure to submit any required
subcontractor list or bid bond by 5 p.m. of the next business day after notice
is provided by the division shall make the bidder ineligible for consideration
of award of the contract.
