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 for SafeCare from Georgia State University. The form provides the procedural framework for vendors and contractors to request 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, as the Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of vendors who fail to provide a redacted copy. The form requires claimants to provide detailed information including company name, address, contact person, telephone number, email address, and the specific pages and paragraphs for which confidentiality protection is being claimed, along with concise statements of reasons supporting each claim.

The confidentiality claim process applies specifically to records submitted to governmental entities in procurement matters. Claimants must acknowledge that submitting a confidentiality claim does not guarantee protection if a Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA) records request is subsequently received. The form serves as documentation that the claimant has formally requested confidential treatment for sensitive business information prior to submission, establishing a clear audit trail and justification for any protective measures the state may subsequently apply during public records requests. This mechanism allows vendors to protect legitimate business interests while maintaining transparency in government procurement processes.

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.
