About this file
This is a Government Records Access and Management (GRAMA) 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 for LineV Systems Body Scanner Contract Funds Increase. The form serves as a template for businesses to assert claims that trade secrets or commercial financial information submitted to the State of Utah should be protected from public disclosure under Utah Code sections 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Claimants must provide both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals, with the redacted version identifying specific pages, paragraphs, and reasons for protection requests. The form requires submission of claimant information including company name, address, contact details, and a concise statement explaining why disclosure would cause unfair competitive injury or reveal protected trade secrets.
The confidentiality claim form emphasizes that submission of a claim does not guarantee protected classification status if the government receives a public records request, and that the Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of claimants who fail to submit properly redacted copies. The form includes fields for identifying the governmental entity receiving the claim, the reason for submission, and detailed explanations for each redacted section. This procedural requirement reflects Utah's commitment to balancing government transparency obligations with legitimate business confidentiality interests in competitive procurement processes.

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.
