About this file
This is a GRAMA (Government Records Access and Management Act) Business Confidentiality Claim form issued by the Utah State Archives Office of the Government Records Ombudsman for use in connection with Snow College's RFP for a Private Public Partnership Housing Project (SNOC26271001). The form is designed to allow bidders and proposers to protect trade secrets and commercial financial information from public disclosure under Utah Code provisions 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Claimants submitting proposals must provide a concise written statement explaining the basis for their confidentiality claim and must submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals; the Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of claimants who fail to provide a properly redacted copy. The claim form requires standard company information including the claimant's name, address, contact details, the governmental entity receiving the submission, and specific identification of which pages and paragraphs of the submitted documents warrant protection.
The confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification status if the governmental entity receives a public records request, as determinations are made on a case-by-case basis under applicable Utah law. Bidders and proposers are responsible for clearly identifying and justifying protection for specific sections of their submissions, with the form providing fields to document multiple reasons across different pages and paragraphs as needed. This procedural requirement is fundamental to Snow College's procurement process for the student housing development partnership, ensuring that proprietary information can be appropriately protected while maintaining governmental transparency obligations and public access to non-confidential records.

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.
