About this file
This is a Claim of Business Confidentiality Form for the Utah Department of Transportation's Request for Proposals for Toll Back Office System and Customer Service Center Support. The form allows bidders to claim business confidentiality protections for specific information submitted with their proposals, in accordance with Utah Code Annotated Subsections 63G-2-305(1) and (2) and Section 63G-2-309. Bidders may designate non-public financial statements, specific employee names and contact information, customer information, client lists, subscription lists, or other specified information as confidential if such information qualifies as a trade secret or commercial information that could result in unfair competitive injury if disclosed. Importantly, pricing and cost proposals may not be classified as confidential and will be considered public information, and entire proposals cannot be identified as protected, confidential, or proprietary in their entirety.
The form requires bidders claiming business confidentiality to identify the specific pages and paragraphs of their proposal for which protection is sought and provide detailed reasons justifying the confidentiality claim. The justification must demonstrate that the information derives independent economic value from not being generally known and is the subject of reasonable efforts to maintain secrecy, or that it constitutes commercial information where disclosure would cause unfair competitive injury or impair the governmental entity's ability to obtain necessary information in the future. Bidders will be notified if claimed protected records are classified as public or if the governmental entity determines that records should be released after weighing competing interests under applicable Utah Code Annotated sections.
