Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 9, September 1, 2024
(1)
General: The Lottery may accept Offers that contain, or allow an Offeror to
correct an Offer that contains, Minor Informalities.
(2) Examples: Minor Informalities include
errors in form rather than substance and errors in an Offer that can be
overlooked or corrected without prejudice to other Offerors. Minor
Informalities do not cause an Offer to be non-Responsive. Examples of Minor
Informalities include, but are not limited to:
(a) Incorrect Number of Copies: The Offeror
failed to submit the correct number of signed Offers or the correct number of
other documents required by the Solicitation Document;
(b) Signature Errors: The Offeror failed to
sign the Offer in the designated block, provided that an authorized signature
appears elsewhere in the Offer as evidence of Offeror's intent to be
bound;
(c) Failure to Acknowledge:
The Offeror failed to acknowledge receipt of an Addendum to the Solicitation
Document. Provided that it is evident on the face of the Offer, or the Lottery
has written evidence, that the Offeror received the Addendum and intends to be
bound by its terms; or
(d) Clerical
Errors: Clerical errors that are evident within the Offer, including
typographical errors, errors in extending unit prices, math errors, and
instances in which the intended correct unit or amount is evident by simple
arithmetic calculations. If a specified unit price, when extended, does not
equal the specified extended price, then Lottery shall use the specified unit
price for purposes of extended price determination.
