Case of submiiting bid with a bid bond not signed by electrical contractor. I s bid responsive or non-responsive?
 
Could it be merely a matter of someone simply forgetting to sign the document? The owner of the bidded project has to right to waive and formalities.

If the EC had a bid bond then seems they took the time to get one. If they were low, then they can either take the project of reject it and surrender the bid bond, which is usually 5% of the bid.

Hardly ever have I seen an owner take a bid bond, but I have a time or two.

Absolutely, and they certainly would if this contractor won, this is as much a reason for disqualification as getting the bid in a after the X:00 PM (or whatever) deadline.

An incorrect bid is simply incorrect and should make the bid Null and Void, this would also go with any other particulars such as MBE forms or whatever.
