SS-25-005 Vertex Payroll Tax Q Series

The purpose of this announcement is to express the intent of the Jacksonville Transportation Authority (JTA) to award a Sole Source contract with Vertex, Inc., for Vertex Payroll Tax Q Series to provide monthly tax updates and support in the JTA Oracle ERP system to ensure all payroll taxing is current and up to date.

In the United States and Canada, the legislation rules and tax routines are maintained by Vertex. Inc., an independent third party software company. This taxation data is accessed by the Payroll calculation engine via software provided by Vertex Inc., which is redistributed by Oracle. Currently this software is named "Vertex Payroll Tax Q Series, "(Quantum). Customers who have installed either of both CA and US legislations must also obtain a Vertex license and request monthly data updates for tax calculations, or calculations for taxes will not calculate correctly.

JTA 's Oracle ERP system is currently integrated with the Vertex tax system.
