Heyer Products Company v. United States

WHITAKER, Judge.

Plaintiff’s petition alleges that the defendant, through the Ordnance Tank Automotive Center, Ordnance Corps, Department of the Army, issued an invitation to it and to others to bid on 5,500 low voltage circuit testers; that it put in a bid of $205,975, which it says was the low bid, but that the contract was awarded to the Weidenhoff Company, whose bid was $190,043 higher.
