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 an Amendment to Contract 246221 with Life Technologies. The form serves as a template for companies submitting proposals to state procurement units to assert claims for 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, with the entire proposal not eligible for complete redaction. The form requires claimants to provide concise statements of reasons supporting their confidentiality claims, along with company information including name, address, contact details, and identification of the specific pages and paragraphs subject to protection.
The form emphasizes that making a confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification if the government receives a records request under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). Claimants must clearly identify which records apply to the confidentiality request and provide detailed reasoning for each redaction sought. The Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of claimants who fail to submit properly redacted copies of their proposals. This procedural requirement applies to all proposals submitted to Utah state procurement units and is essential for protecting sensitive business information while maintaining transparency in the procurement process.

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.
