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 (Contract 246031 AMD 1) from the State of Utah Division of Purchasing. The form serves as a template for vendors or contractors to submit confidentiality claims for trade secrets and commercial financial information included in their proposals, in accordance with Utah Code 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Claimants must provide concise written justifications for why specific information should remain confidential and must submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals, as the Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of claimants. The form requires claimant company information, contact details, identification of specific pages and paragraphs subject to confidentiality claims, and detailed reasoning for each confidentiality request.
The submission of a confidentiality claim does not guarantee that information will be classified as protected if the government receives a public records request under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). Claimants must identify the governmental entity to which records are being submitted and must provide explanations for how disclosure could reasonably result in unfair competitive injury. The form includes spaces for multiple confidentiality reasons across different sections of the proposal, allowing claimants to protect trade secrets and commercial financial information while maintaining transparency in other proposal elements. This procedure enables contractors to safeguard sensitive business information while participating in Utah's 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.
