9-10. CONFIDENTIAL PROPRIETARY SUBMITTAL FORM.docx

This is a Confidential Proprietary Submittal Form issued by Scottsdale Unified School District #48 in Arizona for RFP #27001 regarding Security Guard Services. The form serves as a mechanism for bidders to designate portions of their proposals as confidential or proprietary information. Bidders must indicate whether their offer contains confidential or proprietary materials and, if so, identify which sections qualify for such designation. The solicitation has a submission deadline of April 15, 2026, and the District's Purchasing Department is located at 9313 N. 95th Way, Scottsdale, AZ 85258. Bidders are required to submit a complete redacted copy of their bid response alongside their original proposal, with any confidential or proprietary materials clearly marked. The form notes that requests to deem entire bids or pricing as confidential will not be considered, and failure to submit a properly redacted copy may result in denial of the confidentiality request.

The form requires bidders to provide their company name, authorized signature, printed name and title of the signatory, and submission date. While the form itself does not contain detailed pricing or contract term information, it establishes the procedural requirements for handling sensitive business information within the competitive bidding process. The District reserves the right to review confidential or proprietary designations in conjunction with the bidder before any public disclosure occurs, though marking materials as confidential does not guarantee protection from disclosure.
