About this file
This is a Business Confidentiality Claim form issued by the Utah State Archives Office of the Government Records Ombudsman in connection with a Notice of Intent to Award a Contract without engaging in standard procurement, submitted by the Division of Purchasing for the State of Utah. The form serves as a template for vendors and contractors to assert claims for protection of trade secrets and commercial financial information under Utah Code 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Claimants must submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals, with the entire proposal prohibited from redaction. The form requires detailed company information, including the company name, address, representative contact details, and specific identification of which pages and paragraphs contain confidential material, along with concise written justifications for each confidentiality claim.
The confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification if the government receives a records request under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). Claimants are responsible for submitting their own redacted copies; the Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of vendors who fail to provide them. The form includes fields for multiple confidentiality claims with corresponding reasons, allowing claimants to identify up to four separate areas of confidentiality concern. This template is part of Utah's procurement process for contracts awarded without standard competition based on sole source justification, transitional cost considerations, or other circumstances determined impractical for standard procurement procedures.

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.
