About this file
This is a Disclosure Exemption Affidavit document related to a Request for Information (RFI S-58100-00010431) issued by the State of Oregon for the procurement of cheese products—specifically approximately 160,000 pounds of Cheese, Shredded Blend and 40,000 pounds of Cheese, Low Sodium Sliced through the Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) Purchasing/Contracts Division. The ITB was posted on May 15, 2024, with a bid closing date of May 29, 2024, and an electronic bid opening scheduled for the same day. The affidavit serves as a legal instrument through which a proposer's authorized representative swears under penalty of perjury that certain information contained within the proposal should be exempt from public disclosure under Oregon's Public Records Law (ORS 192.311 through 192.478) or qualifies as a trade secret under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act (ORS 646.461 through 646.475).
The affidavit identifies specific categories of information that may be withheld from disclosure, including formulas, plans, patterns, processes, production data, and compilations of information known only to certain individuals within the proposer's organization that provide competitive advantage, as well as information that derives independent economic value from not being generally known and is subject to reasonable efforts to maintain secrecy. The document requires the affiant to specify in Exhibit A which particular exemptions apply to their proposed information. Proposers are required to submit pricing per unit and indicate eligibility for either the 5% preference for Oregon Goods and Services or the 5% preference for resident bidders headquartered in Oregon. ODOC will award one or more contracts based on the lowest responsive and responsible bid, which may be assessed per line item, group of items, or across all items, with the contract start date to be determined.

ATTACHMENT A — disclosure exemption AFFIDAVIT ____________________ (Affiant), being first duly sworn under oath, and representing [insert Proposer Name] (hereafter “Proposer”), hereby deposes and swears or affirms under penalty of perjury that:
I am an employee of the Proposer, I have knowledge of the Request for Proposals referenced herein, and I have full authority from the Proposer to submit this affidavit and accept the responsibilities stated herein.
I am aware that the Proposer has submitted a Proposal, dated on or about [insert date] (the “Proposal”), to the State of Oregon (State) in response to Request for Information: , and I am familiar with the contents of the RFI and Proposal.
I have read and am familiar with the provisions of Oregon’s Public Records Law, Oregon Revised Statutes (“ORS”) 192.311 through 192.478, and the Uniform Trade Secrets Act as adopted by the State of Oregon, which is set forth in ORS 646.461 through ORS 646.475. I understand that the Proposal is a public record held by a public body and is subject to disclosure under the Oregon Public Records Law unless specifically exempt from disclosure under that law.
I have reviewed the information contained in the Proposal. The Proposer believes the information listed in Exhibit A is exempt from public disclosure (collectively, the “Exempt Information”), which is incorporated herein by this reference. It is my opinion that the Exempt Information is exempt from disclosure under Oregon’s Public Records Law under the specifically designated sections as set forth in Exhibit A or constitutes “Trade Secrets” under either the Oregon Public Records Law or the Uniform Trade Secrets Act as adopted in Oregon because that information is either:
A formula, plan, pattern, process, tool, mechanism, compound, procedure, production data, or compilation of information that:
is not patented, is known only to certain individuals within the Proposer’s organization and that is used in a business the Proposer conducts, has actual or potential commercial value, and gives its user an opportunity to obtain a business advantage over competitors who do not know or use it.
or Information, including a drawing, cost data, customer list, formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process that:
Derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; and Is the subject of efforts by the Proposer that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy.
I understand that disclosure of the information referenced in Exhibit A may depend on official or judicial determinations made in accordance with the Public Records Law.
