It should be noted that there were irregularities present in several of the bids submitted, including
that of low bidder, S Brothers, Inc., whose bid included a mathematical error. We believe that these
irregularities are minor in nature and not a mandatory cause for rejection; therefore, the outcome of
the bid is unaffected.
As a matter of procedure, our office has contacted S. Brothers, Inc. to discuss their bid. The
representative we spoke to indicated they are comfortable with the bid as submitted and there is no
objection to completing the project based on the bid prices submitted and the contract time.
