Recognizing there may be materials included in a solicitation response that is proprietary or a trade secret, a process is set out in A.A.C.

For purposes of this process the definition of “trade secret” will be the same as that set out in A.A.C. R2-7-101(50).

This form must be completed and returned with the response to the solicitation and any supporting information to assist the State in making its determination as to whether any of the materials submitted as part of the solicitation response should be designated confidential because the material is proprietary or a trade secret and therefore not subject to disclosure.

All offerors must select one of the following:

My response does not contain proprietary or trade secret information. I understand that my entire response will become public record in accordance with A.A.C. R2-7-C317.

My response does contain trade secret information because it contains information that:

1. Is a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process, AND

2. 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

3. Is the subject of efforts by myself or my organization that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy.

Please note that failure to attach an explanation may result in a determination that the information does not meet the statutory trade secret definition. All information that does not meet the definition of trade secret as defined by A.A.C. R2-7-101(50) will become public in accordance with A.A.C. R2-7-C317. The State reserves the right to make its own determination of Proposer’s trade secret materials through a written determination in accordance with A.A.C. R2-7-103.

If the State agrees with the proposer’s designation of trade secret or confidentiality and the determination is challenged, the undersigned hereby agrees to cooperate and support the defense of the determination with all interested parties, including legal counsel or other necessary assistance.

By submitting this response, proposer agrees that the entire offer, including confidential, trade secret and proprietary information may be shared with an evaluation committee and technical advisors during the evaluation process.

Proposer agrees to indemnify and hold the State, its agents and employees, harmless from any claims or causes of action relating to the State’s withholding of information based upon reliance on the above representations, including the payment of all costs and attorney fees incurred by the State in defending such an action.
