The RFI, posted on April 24, 2026, requires vendor responses by May 26, 2026. The Treasurer's Office is gathering information regarding secure, reliable, and cost-effective payment solutions capable of accepting multiple electronic payment methods, including credit cards, debit cards, ACH/e-check transactions, and digital wallets. Key service requirements include robust reporting and reconciliation capabilities, advanced functionality, comprehensive compliance features, and seamless integration with existing county systems. The solicitation is issued for information-gathering purposes only, with no contract award to be made based on RFI results. Any subsequent procurement will be conducted through a separate competitive process subject to budget approval.

The RFI does not specify set-aside designations, incumbent vendor information, organization type restrictions, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, budget ranges, or existing infrastructure details at this stage. Participation in the RFI does not guarantee consideration in future procurement processes. The Treasurer's Office aims to maximize technology utilization to enhance citizen service, achieve internal operational efficiencies, and deliver high-quality customer experiences for both taxpayers and internal staff. Interested vendors should monitor for subsequent formal solicitations that will follow standard procurement procedures and compliance requirements.
