About this file
This is a Utah Government Records Management Act (GRAMA) Business Confidentiality Claim Form issued by the Office of the Government Records Ombudsman and Utah State Archives, applicable to Contract 196340 Amendment 4 Extension and Funds Increase Request with the State of Utah Division of Purchasing. The form provides the mechanism by which bidders and contractors can protect trade secrets and commercial financial information from public disclosure under GRAMA. Per Utah Code 63G-2-305, trade secrets qualify for protection if accompanied by a confidentiality claim, and commercial financial information qualifies if disclosure would reasonably result in unfair competitive injury and is supported by a filed claim. The form requires claimants to submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals, with the entire proposal prohibited from redaction. The Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of claimants who fail to provide a redacted copy.
The confidentiality claim requires claimant information including company name, address, representative contact details, and a concise statement of reasons supporting the claim. Claimants must specify which pages and paragraphs of submitted records require protection and the reason for each protection request. The form includes designated fields for up to four separate confidentiality claims with corresponding page, paragraph, and reason documentation. Importantly, the form explicitly notes that filing a confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification status if the governmental entity receives a GRAMA records request, meaning protection is discretionary based on the Division of Purchasing's written determination.

Office of the Government Records Ombudsman Utah State Archives
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.
