The officer whose duty is to open them will decide when the specified time has arrived and no bid received thereafter will be considered unless: (1) they are sent by registered mail or by certified mail for which an official dated post office stamp (post-mark) on the original Receipt for Certified Mail has been obtained and it is 13 102 BIDDING REQUIREMENTS determined by the District that the late receipt was due solely to delay in the mails for which the Bidder was not responsible; or (2) if submitted by mail (or by telegram if authorized by the Contracting Officer), it is determined by the District that the late receipt was due solely to mishandling by the District after receipt at the District agency: Provided, that timely receipt at such agency is established upon examination of an appropriate date or time stamp or other documentary evidence or receipt within the control of such agency. Bidders using certified mail are cautioned to obtain a receipt for certified mail showing legible, dated postmark and to retain such receipt against the chance that it will be required as evidence that a late bid was timely mailed. The only evidence acceptable in this matter is as follows: (1) where the Receipt of Certified Mail identifies the post office station of mailing, evidence furnished by the Bidder which established that the business day of the station ended at an earlier time, in which case of the time of mailing shall be deemed to be last minute of the business day; or (2) an entry in ink on the Receipt for Certified Mail showing the time of mailing and the initials of postal employee receiving the item and making the entry, with appropriate written verification of such entry from the post office station of mailing, in which case the time of mailing shall be the time shown in the entry. If the postmark on the original Receipt for Certified Mail does not show a date, the bid shall not be considered. The time of mailing of late bids submitted by registered or certified mail shall be deemed to be the last minute of the date shown in the postmark on the registered mail receipt or registered mail wrapper or on the Receipt for Certified Mail unless the Bidder furnishes evidence from the post office station of mailing which establishes an earlier time. No responsibility will attach to the District or any of its officers or employees for the premature opening of a bid not properly addressed and identified. Unless specifically authorized, telegraphic bids will not be considered, but modification by telegram, of bids already submitted will be considered if received prior to the hour set for opening, but should not reveal the amount of the original or revised bid. ARTICLE 16 WITHDRAWAL OF BIDS Bids may be withdrawn on written or telegraphic request received from Bidders prior to the time fixed for opening, provided the name of the Bidder appears on the outside of the envelope containing the bid. Negligence on the part of the Bidder in preparing the bid confers no right for the withdrawal of the bid after it has been opened.

ARTICLE 18 AWARD OR REJECTION The Contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible Bidder complying with conditions of the bid documents, provided his bid is reasonable and it is in the best interest of the District to accept it. The Bidder to whom Award is made will be notified by the Contracting Officer at the earliest possible date.

If more than one bid be offered by any one party, by or in the name of his or their clerk, partner, or other person, all such bids may be rejected. This shall not prevent a Bidder from proceeding under Article 8 hereof, nor from quoting different prices on different qualities of materials or different conditions of delivery. A supplier or material man who has quoted prices on materials to a Bidder is not thereby disqualified from quoting to other Bidders or from submitting a bid directly for the materials or Work. Each Bidder shall bid on all items in the Pay Item Schedule and in accordance with the instructions below. Failure to bid on all items will give the District the option to reject the bid. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to waive any informalities, to reject any or all bids, or to readvertise for bids. Awards, if made, will be to the lowest responsible and qualified Bidders whose bids are responsive to the invitation and is most advantageous to the District of Columbia, price and other factors considered.
