About this file

This document contains two Wisconsin Department of Administration DOA-3832 bidder required forms submitted by companies responding to a state procurement solicitation. The forms are from Deaf Services Unlimited, an Iowa-based company located in Des Moines, and Geneva Worldwide, Inc., a New York-based company. Both companies are bidding on a Wisconsin state contract and have agreed to participate in Wisconsin's Cooperative Purchasing Service, which allows Wisconsin municipalities to purchase directly from state contractors.

Both companies provide American Sign Language (ASL) interpreting services, including on-site interpreting and video remote interpreting services. Deaf Services Unlimited's references include work with Wisconsin state agencies such as the Department of Children and Families, Wisconsin Workforce Development, and Southwest CAP, while Geneva Worldwide references include the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles, Fedcap, New Rochelle School District, and CUNY Lehman College. The forms indicate standard procurement requirements including anti-collusion certifications, compliance with Wisconsin manufacturing preferences, and agreement not to boycott Israel. Neither company claims minority business enterprise or disabled veteran-owned business preferences. The documents represent the standard bidder qualification and agreement process for Wisconsin state contracts with cooperative purchasing extension to local municipalities.

Section 4: Designation of Confidential and Proprietary Information

The attached material submitted in response to this bid/proposal includes proprietary and confidential information which qualifies as a trade secret, as provided in s. 19.36(5), Wis. Stats., or is otherwise material that can be kept confidential under the Wisconsin Open Records Law. As such, we ask that certain pages, as indicated below, of this bid/proposal response be treated as confidential material and not be released without our written approval.

Prices always become public information when bids/proposals are opened, and therefore cannot be kept confidential.

Other information cannot be kept confidential unless it is a trade secret. Trade secret is defined in s. 134.90(1)(c), Wis. Stats., as follows: “Trade Secret” means information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process to which all of the following apply:

1. The information derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use.

2. The information is the subject of efforts to maintain its secrecy that are reasonable under the circumstances.

We request that the following pages not be released:

Section Page # Topic

5 32 Complaint Resolution

Using the boxes below, indicate your agreement with the following statements:

In the event the designation of confidentiality of this information is challenged, the bidder/proposer hereby agrees to provide legal counsel or other necessary assistance to defend the designation of confidentiality and agrees to hold the state harmless for any costs or damages arising out of the state’s agreeing to withhold the materials.

Section 5: Bidder Agreement: Wisconsin’s Cooperative Purchasing Service

Wisconsin statutes (s. 16.73, Wis. Stats.) establish authority to allow Wisconsin municipalities to purchase from state contracts.

Stats.). Federally recognized Indian tribes and bands in this state may participate in cooperative purchasing with the state or any municipality under ss. 66.0301(1) and (2), Wis. Stats.

Interested municipalities:
