80^ Heyer Products Co v United States, 140 FSupp 409, 412-13 (Ct Cl 1956), prevented unsuccessful bidders from making a claim for lost profits because there was no contract to base this claim upon. Cincinnati Electric Corp v Kleppe, 509 F 2d 1080 (1975), upheld the finding that the only loss the unsuccessful bidder could claim was the cost of preparing the bid.

90^ This is a simplification; Contract A will not always be formed upon the submission of a tender. For example, a contract will only arise where there is a clear intention to contract. However, what is relevant is that the submission of a tender will often give rise to contractual obligations. See: MJB Enterprises Ltd v Defence Construction (1951) Ltd, 1999 CarswellAlta 301, at paras 17, 19, 23, [1999] 1 SCR 619.
