RFP Number: 26-11

NOTICE TO OFFERORS:
This Addendum forms a part of the above-referenced RFP and modifies the original solicitation documents as
described below. All other terms, conditions, specifications, and requirements of the RFP remain unchanged
unless specifically modified by this Addendum.
CHANGE TO PROCUREMENT AWARD STRUCTURE
The County is amending the RFP to change the anticipated award from a multi-source award to a single-source
award.
This change is being made to provide a centralized and integrated approach to the County's printing, mailing,
electronic notification, document composition, data processing, and related distribution requirements. The
services identified in this RFP are highly interconnected and require coordination among document production,
variable data processing, electronic delivery, USPS preparation, returned mail processing, reporting, security,
and file management.
A single-award structure will provide the County with one primary service provider responsible for
coordinating and managing the complete service process. This approach is expected to:
* Establish clear accountability and a single point of contact for all services;
* Reduce the risk of errors, omissions, inconsistent processing, and communication issues that may occur
when related services are divided among multiple vendors;
* Improve coordination and consistency between printing, mailing, electronic notification, data
processing, and reporting functions;
* Reduce the need for County staff to coordinate and assign individual jobs among multiple vendors;
* Improve the security and control of sensitive taxpayer and County data by minimizing the number of
external parties involved in processing and transferring information;
* Streamline implementation, file integration, testing, quality control, issue resolution, and ongoing
support;
* Improve the County's ability to monitor production, delivery, turnaround times, returned mail, electronic
notifications, and other performance measures through a centralized reporting structure; and
* Provide a more consistent and efficient customer experience for County departments and the public.
The County has determined that a single-award structure is better suited to maintaining continuity, quality
control, security, and accountability.
