About this file
This file is a Claim of Business Confidentiality form issued by the Office of the Government Records Ombudsman in conjunction with the Utah State Archives, applicable to the Alpine School District's Notice of Intent to Award a contract to Brigham Young University's Center for the Improvement of Teacher Education and Schooling (CITES). The form serves as a template for vendors and contractors to request protection of trade secrets and commercial financial information under Utah Code 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309, which permits classification of sensitive business data when disclosure could reasonably result in unfair competitive injury. Claimants are required to submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals, with the entire proposal prohibited from being redacted. The form requests comprehensive claimant information including company name, address, contact details, and a concise statement of reasons supporting the confidentiality claim, with specific reference to the pages and paragraphs containing protected information.
The confidentiality claim process does not guarantee protected classification status if the government receives subsequent records requests under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). Claimants must provide detailed explanations linking each confidential section to specific reasons for protection, and the Division of Purchasing will not redact proposals on behalf of claimants who fail to submit a properly redacted copy. This form represents a procedural requirement for any vendor responding to the Alpine School District procurement opportunity related to the CITES contract award, ensuring that legitimate business confidential information receives appropriate legal consideration under Utah state law while maintaining transparency through the required public redacted version.

Business Request for GRAMA Business Confidentiality Claim
Note: Utah Code § 63G-2-305(1) states that trade secrets can be protected if the person submitting the trade secret provides the governmental entity with a confidentiality claim. Likewise, Utah Code § 63G-2-305(2) states that commercial financial information can be protected if disclosure could reasonably be expected to result in unfair competitive injury to the person submitting the information, and that person has provided a confidentiality claim. Confidentiality claims are described in Utah Code § 63G-2-309. A claim must include a concise statement of reasons supporting the claim and must be submitted with the information requested to be protected. A claimant MUST submit a redacted and non-redacted version of their proposal. The entire proposal may NOT be redacted. The Division of Purchasing will not redact a proposal on behalf of a claimant if they fail to upload a redacted copy of their proposal.
