This is a pricing schedule for mail pre-sort services being procured by Volusia County, Florida. The County seeks a contractor to provide mailing services, specifically to pick up an average of 32,000 pieces of mail monthly from the Volusia County mailroom located at 123 West Indiana Avenue, DeLand, Florida. The selected contractor will be responsible for pre-sorting mail and delivering it to the United States Postal Service (USPS) post office. The pricing document establishes the evaluation framework for comparing bidder proposals on key cost metrics.

The pricing schedule identifies six evaluation line items that will determine contractor compensation and savings to the County. These items include the percentage discount off gross postage rates for both 1-ounce and 2-ounce mail pieces, the total postage savings per piece of mail at each weight category, the total fees paid to the contractor per piece of mail, and the contractor's ability to comply with the County's established schedule. This pricing structure allows the County to evaluate bids based on both the discounts vendors can negotiate with USPS and the service fees they will charge, enabling a comprehensive cost comparison across proposals.
