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 with the State of Utah Division of Purchasing. The form is designed to accompany proposals submitted in response to the Department of Corrections' Request for Proposal for Custom Mother Trailers for a Mother/Daughter Trailer System. The RFP anticipates a single contract award to the responsive and responsible vendor achieving the highest evaluation score. The evaluation process consists of three stages: an initial review to eliminate non-responsive proposals, a technical proposal evaluation worth up to 700 points across three criteria (Experience at 250 points, Ordering/Delivery at 150 points, and Product Quality and Warranty at 300 points), and a final cost proposal evaluation. Vendors must achieve a minimum technical score threshold of 490 points to proceed to cost evaluation; those scoring below this threshold are deemed non-responsive and ineligible for further consideration.

The confidentiality claim form allows vendors to protect trade secrets and commercial financial information from public disclosure under Utah Code provisions 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309, provided they submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals. Claimants must include a concise statement of reasons supporting the confidentiality claim for specific pages and paragraphs. The Division of Purchasing will not redact proposals on behalf of vendors who fail to submit redacted versions independently. Submission of a confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification if the government receives a public records request; the claim merely initiates the review process under applicable state law.

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.
