About this file
This is a Business Confidentiality Claim form issued by the Utah State Archives Office of the Government Records Ombudsman, applicable to the Utah State Division of Purchasing's cooperative contract for shelf stable foods. The form serves as a standardized template for vendors and contractors to submit confidentiality claims for trade secrets and commercial financial information in accordance with Utah Code 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Claimants must provide a concise written statement explaining the reasons for protecting specific information and are required to submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals, with the understanding that the entire proposal cannot be fully redacted. The form captures essential claimant information including company name, address, contact details, and specifies which pages, paragraphs, and sections of submitted materials require confidentiality protection along with the justification for each claim.
The confidentiality claim process does not guarantee that protected classification will be granted if the government receives public records requests under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). The Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of claimants who fail to submit properly redacted copies of their proposals, making the claimant's responsibility for document preparation critical. This form is particularly relevant to the five-year shelf stable foods cooperative contract, which allows multiple awards based on technical criteria and cost evaluation, with vendors required to guarantee pricing for three-month intervals and pay an administrative fee of 0.75 percent.

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.
