Ada County is seeking proposals from qualified consultants to assist with the creation of a strategy that will allow for the management of the hundreds of thousands of parcels more efficiently as well as increase transparency and ease of use for the public. Ada County officials need assistance in setting a long-term strategy for what the future of assessment and tax collection will be for Ada County. In Phase 1 of the Project, the consultant will be tasked with evaluating current processes, software, and systems, and providing a detailed reporting of recommendations for development or acquisition of replacement solutions to streamline, modernize, and otherwise improve property tax assessment, appeals, billing, and reporting processes. Consultant shall prepare a cost estimate for replacement solutions and deliver to County no later than February 15, 2025. Should County, in its discretion, determine to proceed with consultant’s recommendations, Phase 2 of the Project shall consist of the consultant developing a detailed scope of work for an RFP based on analysis of Ada County needs and requirements, assisting with review and evaluation of vendor proposals, coordinating vendor interviews and demonstrations, and supporting the County with any final solution selection.
