About this file

This is a Claim of Business Confidentiality Form issued by the State of Utah for use in the Jordan School District's Invitation for Bid (IFB) for Milestone Care+ XProtect 3-Year Support licenses for the district's security system. The form complies with Utah Code Annotated Subsections 63G-2-305 and Section 63G-2-309, establishing the process by which bidders may assert claims of business confidentiality to protect sensitive information submitted with their proposals. Bidders may designate specific information as confidential, including non-public financial statements, specific employee names and contact information, customer information and client lists, and other proprietary materials, provided that pricing and cost proposals cannot be classified as confidential and entire proposals cannot be designated as protected or confidential in their entirety.

The form identifies two primary bases for asserting confidentiality protection: information qualifying as trade secrets under Utah Code Annotated Section 13-24-2, including formulas, patterns, programs, methods, or processes that derive independent economic value from not being generally known; and commercial or non-individual financial information where disclosure could reasonably result in unfair competitive injury to the submitting party or impair the governmental entity's ability to obtain necessary information in the future. Bidders must complete the form by identifying the specific page, paragraph, and reason for each claimed confidential item and submit it with their proposals. The governmental entity will notify bidders if any claimed protected records are classified as public or if records should be released after weighing interests under applicable Utah Code provisions.

Claim of Business Confidentiality

Pursuant to Utah Code Annotated, Subsections 63G-2-305 (1) and (2), and in accordance with Section 63G-2-309, ______________________________________ (company name) asserts a claim of business confidentiality to protect the following information submitted as part of this solicitation. Pricing/Cost Proposal may not be classified as confidential or protected and will be considered public information. An entire proposal cannot be identified as “PROTECTED,” “CONFIDENTIAL,” or “PROPRIETARY.”

Non-public financial statements Specific employee name and contact information Specific customer information, client lists, or subscription lists Other (specify): _________________________________________________________________

This claim is asserted because this information requires protection as it includes:

trade secrets as defined in Utah Code Annotated Section 13-24-2 ("Trade secret" means information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique, or process, that: (a) 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; and (b) is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy).

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.

This statement of reasons supporting the claim of business confidentiality applies to the following information in this proposal:
