5.3 ACCEPTANCE OF BID (AWARD)

5.3.1 Emphasis is placed upon the fact that the Owner's decision regarding award of contracts will be influenced by such factors as quality, completion time, construction features, his best judgment of value, etc., and not entirely upon cost, and further, shall reserve the right to accept or reject any or all bids and to waive irregularities in proposals.

If the Bidder submits an acceptable substitute with an increase in his bid price to cover the difference in cost occasioned by such substitution the Owner may, at his discretion, accept the increased bid price or he may disqualify the Bidder.
