About this file
This is a Business Confidentiality Claim form issued by the Utah State Archives Office of the Government Records Ombudsman in conjunction with a Notice of Intent to Award a Contract Without Engaging in a Standard Procurement Process related to Existing Contract 236291 Amendment 3. The form is designed to allow vendors and claimants to protect trade secrets and commercial financial information from public disclosure under Utah's Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). The document serves as a template for companies to submit confidentiality claims alongside their proposals, requiring submission of both redacted and non-redacted versions of proposal materials. Claimants must provide concise statements explaining the basis for confidentiality protection, including company information, contact details, and specific identification of which pages and paragraphs contain sensitive information requiring protection.
The form establishes that while confidentiality claims can be submitted to protect proprietary information, such claims do not guarantee protected classification if the state receives a records request. The Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of claimants who fail to submit properly redacted proposal copies. This confidentiality mechanism applies to information submitted in response to the state's intent to award a contract without standard competitive procurement, potentially under circumstances where only one source exists, transitional costs are significant, or standard procurement processes would be impractical. Claimants must complete all required fields including entity information, governmental agency recipient, submission date, and detailed justifications for each section of information claimed as confidential.

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.
