About this file

This is a Claim of Business Confidentiality form for the Request for Proposals for Rescue & Public Protection Equipment issued by the State of South Carolina under Solicitation Number 5400028525. The form serves as an attachment (Attachment K) to the RFP and provides offerors with the opportunity to designate specific information within their proposals as confidential, proprietary, or protected. Offerors must select one of two options: either certify that no information is being claimed as confidential, or identify specific confidential information by completing a detailed table that includes the proposal section reference, a description of the confidential information, the basis for the claim, and an explanation of how the information meets the definition of confidentiality. Offerors are explicitly prohibited from marking pricing information or their entire proposal as confidential.

The form requires offerors who claim confidential information to submit a redacted copy of their proposal clearly marked as such, in compliance with the terms outlined in Attachment A, Section IV, and the applicable disclosure clause. Offerors must acknowledge that submission of a confidentiality claim does not guarantee the information will be protected from disclosure under applicable public information laws, rules, and policies. By signing the form under penalty of perjury, the offeror certifies the accuracy of the information provided and releases the Lead State, NASPO, NASPO members, and multistate sourcing team entities from any obligation to maintain confidentiality if the offeror fails to submit a redacted copy or fails to properly claim information in compliance with the RFP requirements.
