  • Informalities/Irregularities

    A submission of a bid or proposal that contains minor defects or variations from the exact requirements of the solicitation that do not affect price or other mandatory requirements. A defect that is easily correctable. Generally a matter of form rather than substance. Following legal review may sometimes be corrected within a certain time period. (Harney, 1992)
