Information contained in the successful or unsuccessful Offeror's technical/management or price proposal must be released under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) upon request from the public after contract award except to the extent it contains trade secrets and privileged or confidential commercial or financial information. If the Offeror's proposal contains material meeting this description which is customarily maintained in confidence in the course of the Offeror's business and is not otherwise publicly available, and if the Offeror does and is not otherwise publicly available, and if the Offeror does not want it disclosed to the public, they shall mark the title page with the legend that follows:

"This proposal, furnished in response to Solicitation No. W911QY-26-R-A007 contains trade secrets and/or privileged or confidential commercial or financial information. This information is maintained in confidence in the course of the Offeror's business and is not otherwise publicly available. The Offeror submits this information to the Government in confidence and understands that it is received with that intent. This information shall not be released or disclosed outside the Government under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) or under any other circumstances."

Proposals so marked will be accepted by the Government in confidence and will not be released provided the Offeror and/or Government can show, upon request under the Freedom of Information Act, that the disclosure would either impair the Government's ability to obtain necessary information in the future or cause substantial harm to the competitive position of the offeror.
