About this file

This is a Business Confidentiality Claim Form issued by the Utah State Archives Office of the Government Records Ombudsman in coordination with the Division of Purchasing for Contract 246175 AMD 1. The form is designed to allow vendors and contractors submitting proposals to request protected classification of trade secrets and commercial financial information under Utah Code 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Claimants must submit a concise statement of reasons supporting their confidentiality request and must provide both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals. The form requires claimant information including company name, address, contact details, and the specific pages and paragraphs for which confidentiality is being claimed, along with corresponding reasons for each redaction request.

The form emphasizes that submission of a confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification if the government receives records requests under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). The Division of Purchasing will not redact proposals on behalf of claimants who fail to submit a redacted version themselves. This form applies to the Utah state procurement process and must be completed and submitted with any proposal where the claimant seeks to protect proprietary information from public disclosure. The confidentiality claim is linked to the notice of intent to award a contract without engaging in standard procurement, indicating this may apply to non-competitive awards made under specific justifications such as single-source procurements or circumstances where standard procurement processes are deemed impractical.

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.
