About this file

This is a Business Confidentiality Claim Form issued by the Utah State Archives Office of the Government Records Ombudsman for use in the Salt Lake City School District's Request for Proposals for electrical services related to HVAC electrification at Whittier Elementary School. The form provides bidders with a standardized template to claim protection of trade secrets and commercial financial information submitted as part of their proposals under Utah Code provisions 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Bidders must submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals to claim confidentiality protections, with the form requiring claimants to provide a concise statement of reasons supporting their confidentiality claims and complete information about the records being protected, including specific page numbers and paragraphs subject to the claim.

The form emphasizes that submission of a confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification status if the government receives records requests under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). The Division of Purchasing will not redact proposals on behalf of claimants who fail to provide a properly redacted version alongside their submission. The completed form must be signed and dated by the company representative and should identify the specific governmental entity to which the claim applies, the reason for submission, and detailed information about which portions of the proposal require confidentiality protection.

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.
