The court found on the balance of probabilities that the plaintiff performed the agreed services (introduction, recommendation and provision of pricing information) which constituted adequate consideration and were the effective cause of the contract award; the alleged representations that the contract was 'in the bag' were inherently improbable and not proven, and the evidence supported a lower agreed rate for certain items, so judgment is entered for the plaintiff for the lower calculated sum with interest and costs.
