About this file
This document is a Request to Designate Information as Confidential or Proprietary form from Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) related to RFP #1156 for Moving Services. The RFP seeks a contractor to provide moving services across various MPS sites, primarily involving book transportation between buildings, with potential occasional off-site pickups within Milwaukee. The moves are anticipated to be small to large in scale, typically requiring two movers (one serving as driver) and one truck, with the ability to complete most assignments in one day or less. MPS reserves the right to select multiple vendors and does not guarantee specific quantities of service.
The document emphasizes strict confidentiality protocols, outlining specific conditions under which information can be considered a trade secret under Wisconsin Statutes. Vendors must explicitly identify any proprietary information they wish to protect, understanding that pricing becomes public information upon contract award. The form provides a mechanism for vendors to request confidential treatment of specific proposal sections, with the requirement that such information must have independent economic value and be subject to reasonable secrecy efforts. Notably, the RFP mandates that all communication regarding the solicitation must occur exclusively through the Bonfire messaging system, with any external communication grounds for disqualification.

Request to Designate Information Confidential or Proprietary
REQUEST TO DESIGNATE INFORMATION AS “CONFIDENTIAL” OR “PROPRIETARY”
The material submitted in response to RFP # includes proprietary and confidential information which qualifies as a trade secret, as provided in s. 19.36(5), Wis. Statutes., or is otherwise material that can be kept confidential under the Wisconsin Open Records Law. As such, we ask that certain content, as indicated below, of this bid/proposal response be treated as confidential material and not be released without our written approval.
Prices always become public information when a contract is awarded and executed, 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. Statutes 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 content not be released:
| Bid/Proposal item |
| Location/Section |
| Topic |
In the event the designation of confidentiality of this information is challenged, the undersigned hereby agrees to provide legal counsel or other necessary assistance to defend the designation of confidentiality or proprietary, and agrees to hold Milwaukee Public schools harmless for any costs or damages arising out of Milwaukee Public Schools agreeing to withhold the materials.
Failure to include this form in the bid/proposal response may mean that all information provided as part of the bid/proposal response will be open to examination and copying. Milwaukee Public Schools considers other markings of confidential or proprietary in the bid/proposal document to be insufficient. The undersigned agrees to hold Milwaukee Public Schools harmless for any damages arising out of the release of any materials unless they are specifically identified above.
☐ No Proprietary or Confidential information is included in this proposal.
