About this file

The document is a Proprietary Information Disclosure Form from Milwaukee County, designed to protect confidential and proprietary information submitted in response to a Request for Information. The form allows respondents to designate certain sections of their proposal as trade secrets or confidential material, with specific legal definitions provided for what qualifies as a trade secret under Wisconsin Statute 134.90(1)(c). The form requires respondents to specify which sections and pages they wish to keep confidential, with the understanding that prices are always considered public information.

The form includes important legal provisions where the respondent agrees to defend the confidentiality designation if challenged and holds Milwaukee County harmless from any potential damages arising from withholding materials. Failure to include this form means all submitted information may be subject to open examination and copying. The document provides a structured approach for businesses to protect sensitive information while maintaining transparency in the public procurement process, with clear guidelines on what can and cannot be considered confidential.

ATTACHMENT 1

PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

DISCLOSURE FORM

The attached material submitted in response to the Request for Information includes proprietary and confidential information, which qualifies as a trade secret, as provided in s. 19.36(5), Wis. Stats. or is otherwise material that can be kept confidential under the Wisconsin Open Records Law. As such, we ask that certain pages, as indicated below, of this proposal response be treated as confidential material and not be released without our written approval.

Prices always become public information and therefore cannot be kept confidential.

Other information cannot be kept confidential unless it is a trade secret. Trade secret is defined in s. 134.90(1)(c).

Wis. Stats. as follows: “Trade Secret” means information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process to which all of the following apply:

1. The information derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use.

2. The information is the subject of efforts to maintain its secrecy that are reasonable under the circumstances.

We request that the following Information not be released:
