After opening Proposals, the Department will compare the Proposals based on the correct summation of the products of the scheduled quantities and unit bid prices . If the lowest responsible Bidder has submitted prices on more than one alternate item, the Department reserves the right to determine which alternate to accept. If the extended bid item price, obtained by multiplying the unit bid price by the bid item quantity, is incorrectly calculated, the Department will use the unit bid price to recalculate th e extended bid item price. The Department will not consider Proposals that do not include a Proposal Guaranty in accordance with 1208, “Proposal Guaranty.” The Department reserves the right to take the following actions:

(1)Reject any or all Proposals
(2)Waive defects and technicalities in a Proposal
