About this file

This is a Claim of Business Confidentiality Form submitted in accordance with Utah Code Annotated for the Request for Statements of Qualifications (RFSQ) for Architectural Services for High School Gym Addition at OREM High School, issued by the Alpine School District Department of Purchasing and conducted by the Timpanogos School District Professional Services division. The solicitation seeks architectural firms to provide design and related architectural services for gym additions at OREM High School. The procurement is conducted under Utah Procurement Code 63G-6a Part 15 for the purchase of Design Professional Service Providers and Consultants, with the highest-ranked vendor selected to negotiate a contract at fair and reasonable compensation. If negotiations with the top-ranked vendor are unsuccessful, the district may proceed with negotiations with the next highest-ranked vendor.

The confidentiality form allows responding vendors to assert claims of business confidentiality for specific information submitted with their qualifications, including non-public financial statements, employee contact information, customer or client lists, and other proprietary data. Claims must identify the specific pages and paragraphs containing confidential information and explain the basis for protection under Utah trade secret laws or commercial information exemptions. Importantly, pricing and cost proposals may not be classified as confidential and will be considered public information, and vendors are instructed not to include pricing information in their statements of qualifications submission.

An entire proposal cannot be identified as “PROTECTED”, “CONFIDENTIAL” or “PROPRIETARY”.

commercial information or non-individual financial information obtained from a person if: (a) disclosure of the information could reasonably be expected to result in unfair competitive injury to the person submitting the information or would impair the ability of the governmental entity to obtain necessary information in the future; [and] (b) the person submitting the information has a greater interest in prohibiting access than the public in obtaining access.
