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 Provo City School District's Social Studies Curriculum Adoption procurement. The procurement seeks to adopt elementary and secondary social studies curricula for multiple grade levels across 13 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 3 high schools, covering grades 4-6, 7-8 (including Utah Studies and US History 1), and 9-12 (including Geography, World History, US History 2, and Government & Citizenship). The RFP anticipates a single contract award to the responsive and responsible vendor with the highest score. The response deadline is Wednesday, October 7th, 2026 at 2:00 PM Mountain Time. The resulting contract will have an initial term of seven years with a possible extended renewal period of one to three years, with all pricing guaranteed for the entire contract term. All curriculum materials must be available for purchase through the Mountain State Schoolbook Depository, with purchase orders issued directly to the depository.

The Business Confidentiality Claim form allows bidders to protect trade secrets and commercial financial information from public disclosure under Utah Code 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Claimants must submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals, with the form requiring detailed information about the company, the specific pages and paragraphs subject to confidentiality claims, and a concise statement of reasons supporting each claim. The Division of Purchasing will not perform redactions on behalf of claimants who fail to submit a redacted proposal. Submission of a confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification if the government receives a records request.

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.
