About this file

This is a Business Confidentiality Claim form from the Utah State Archives' Office of the Government Records Ombudsman, utilized by the Utah Division of Purchasing in connection with a Notice of Intent to Award a Contract for GOPB Economic Forecast Data. The form serves as the mechanism through which bidders and contractors can request protection of trade secrets and commercial financial information submitted as part of their proposals in accordance with Utah Code 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Claimants must submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals, with the entire proposal unable to be fully redacted. The form requires claimants to provide detailed company information, including name, address, representative contact details, and a concise statement of reasons supporting the confidentiality claim, specifying which pages, paragraphs, and sections of their submission require protection and the justification for such protection.

The confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification status if the governmental entity receives a records request under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). The Division of Purchasing will not undertake redaction on behalf of claimants who fail to submit a properly redacted version of their proposal. This form is essential for contractors seeking to protect proprietary information while complying with Utah's transparent government records requirements and the state's non-competitive procurement justification process, which permits single-source awards when only one source exists, when transitional costs are significant, or when standard procurement processes are 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.
