Voss_Attachment_2.1.3.4_-_Confidential_Information_Designation.pdf

This document is a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by the Arizona Department of Administration's State Procurement Office, located in Phoenix, Arizona. The solicitation number is BPM006272 and it is for a Statewide Facilities and Building Supplies contract. The document specifically focuses on Attachment 2.1.3.4, which provides guidelines for Confidential Information Designation according to Arizona Administrative Code (A.A.C.) R2-7-103.

The RFP attachment outlines the process for designating confidential or trade secret information during the proposal submission. Respondents must clearly indicate whether their response contains proprietary information, with two primary options: either marking that the response does not contain proprietary information (which is currently checked) or providing specific justification for confidentiality. The document emphasizes that failure to properly designate confidential information may result in the materials becoming public record. The solicitation is structured to allow vendors to protect sensitive information while maintaining transparency in the procurement process, with specific provisions for how confidential information will be handled and potentially disclosed.
