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 Salt Lake City School District's Request for Proposals to procure a Maintenance Management System (MMS) software solution. The form is designed to allow vendors submitting proposals to claim protection for trade secrets and commercial financial information under Utah Code provisions 63G-2-305 and 63G-2-309. Vendors responding to this solicitation for the SLCSD Auxiliary Services Department—which supports 44 facilities serving approximately 18,500 students with a staff of 300 employees—must submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals if they wish to claim confidentiality protections. The form requires vendors to provide claimant information including company name, address, representative contact details, and a concise written statement explaining the reasons for the confidentiality claim, with specific identification of the pages, paragraphs, and proprietary content being protected.

The confidentiality claim process requires vendors to demonstrate that disclosure of the claimed information could reasonably result in unfair competitive injury, and submission of the claim does not guarantee protected classification if the government receives a records request. Vendors must submit the completed form with the information they seek to protect, and failure to provide a redacted copy of the proposal will result in the Division of Purchasing declining to redact materials on behalf of the claimant. All questions concerning the solicitation must be submitted through the Bonfire system, and responses remain secure until after the deadline, allowing vendors to submit and modify submissions multiple times before the closure date.

Office of the Government Records Ombudsman Utah State Archives

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.
