Available Bid Description : The County of Los Angeles (County) Treasurer and Tax Collector (TTC) is issuing this Request for Proposals (RFP) for the provision of a Remittance Processing Replacement System.
You may download the RFP from the Internet by accessing the County�s website at http://camisvr.co.la.ca.us/lacobids, selecting �View Open Bids,� selecting �List by Department,� selecting �Treasurer and Tax Collector� from the drop-down list and then clicking on �Select Department.� You may also download the RFP by accessing the TTC�s website

at http://ttc.lacounty.gov, selecting the �TTC Contract Opportunities� link from the menu on the left, and selecting �Request for Proposals for a Remittance Processing Replacement System.� Potential proposers are responsible for downloading and reviewing the entire RFP.
The RFP contains the service requirements, proposal content and format requirements, a description of the proposal selection process, and a sample contract. Vendors that meet the minimum requirements identified in Paragraph 3.0, Proposer�s Minimum Mandatory Qualifications, are invited to submit a proposal to provide the services described further in Appendix A, Statement of Work. Potential proposers should carefully review the RFP and ensure their proposal complies with all RFP requirements.
Pursuant to Subparagraph 7.7.11, Proposers must list all of their exceptions in their proposal submission. Proposers may not take exception to the Standard Terms and Conditions in their entirety, and replace the County�s Standard Terms and Conditions with the proposer�s. The Department will consider such a proposal to be non responsive.
The TTC will recommend approval of the contract to the most responsive and responsible proposer. In general, the greater the number of exceptions to the terms and conditions the proposer lists, and the more substantive the exceptions are, the less responsive the proposal will be deemed. Thus, a proposer that lists a large number of exceptions in quantity or quality will be scored accordingly. This practice reflects the fact that a proposer that is able to accept the Standard Terms and Conditions as is, without any exception, is more responsive to the RFP than a proposer that takes a number of exceptions to the Standard Terms and Conditions.
During the negotiations process, the TTC limits the exceptions that can be negotiated during contract negotiations to the exceptions listed in the proposal itself. The TTC would compromise the integrity of the RFP process if it were to negotiate an exception that the proposer did not list in its proposal. If the proposer had listed the exception in the proposal, the proposer�s score will likely be less than originally calculated, thereby having a potential impact to the ranking of all proposals.
A Mandatory Proposers� Conference (Conference), to answer questions regarding the written specifications of the RFP, will be held at 10 a.m. Pacific Time (PT) on Tuesday, August 8, 2017, at the Kenneth Hahn Hall of Administration, 500 West Temple Street, Conference Room 140, Los Angeles, California 90012. Any Vendor submitting a proposal MUST ATTEND this Conference, either in person or via webinar, or will be disqualified. To register to attend the Conference, please contact Kathy Gomez, Contracts Section, at (213) 974-7360 or send an email to contracts@ttc.lacounty.gov no later than Friday, August 4, 2017. Immediately following the Conference, a maximum of two attendees per firm will be allowed to attend an on site tour of the TTC�s remittance processing facilities. This tour is optional and is not a minimum mandatory requirement.
The RFP responses must be prepared in accordance with Paragraph 7.0, Proposal Submission Requirements. Proposals are due no later than 5 p.m. (PT) on Thursday, August 31, 2017, and shall be delivered or mailed to the TTC, Contracts Section, 500 West Temple Street, Room 437, Los Angeles, California 90012.
