About this file

This is a Claim of Business Confidentiality Form (Revision 09/10/2024) submitted in connection with Jordan School District's Request for Proposals for an English Language Proficiency Assessment Solution for Multilingual Learners in Utah. The form allows offerors to assert claims of business confidentiality for specific information included in their solicitation responses, pursuant to Utah Code Annotated Subsections 63G-2-305 (1) and (2) and Section 63G-2-309. Offerors may protect designated categories of information, including nonpublic financial statements, specific employee names and contact information, and specific customer information or client lists. The form requires offerors to identify the page, paragraph, and specific reason for each confidentiality claim and provides checkboxes for common categories of protected information. An entire solicitation response cannot be classified as protected, confidential, or proprietary in its entirety, and pricing or cost information may not be claimed as confidential.

The form establishes a process whereby the governmental entity will notify offerors if information claimed as protected is classified as public or if the entity determines the record should be released after weighing interests under Utah Code Annotated 63G-2-201(5)(b) or 63G-2-401(6). Claims of business confidentiality must be based on trade secrets as defined in Utah Code Annotated Section 13-24-2 or commercial information where disclosure could reasonably result in unfair competitive injury or impair the governmental entity's ability to obtain necessary information in the future, and where the submitting party has a greater interest in prohibiting access than the public has in obtaining access. The form requires the signature of an authorized representative, company name, and date of submission.

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.
