Assessor/Recorder

$20,000,000

The project is a multi-phase, joint endeavor between the Office of the Assessor-Recorder (ASR), the Treasurer & Tax Collector (TTX), and Office of the Controller (CON) to secure and modernize the City’s property tax functions by replacing legacy systems that enable the assessment and collection of approximately $2.5 billion in annual property tax revenues. The departments currently maintain two separate legacy IT systems to perform these functions.

The ASR plans to procure the following professional service(s):

Implementation services
Data conversion services
Independent Verification and Validation Services.

The replacement of the City’s property assessment & tax system is one of the three major IT projects identified by the Information & Communication Technology (ICT) Plan for FY18-22.

Anticipated Outcomes are:

Increase Efficiency and Quality: Re-engineer assessment and tax business processes based on best practices and eliminate manual processes and workarounds.
Improve Revenue Collection: Increase turnaround time for assessments and provide timely tax billing, revenue collection and certification to reduce revenue at risk.
Build a Resilient IT Infrastructure: Secure $2.5 billion in revenue through modern technology platforms that are secure and resilient.
Increase Access to Data: Improve information available to public and policymakers and enable better revenue forecasting and data analysis.
Improve Taxpayer Service and Transparency; Integrate property tax and assessment functions among the three departments for better customer service.
