The District Of Columbia Government is seeking proposals to provide lockbox and data processing service under Request for Proposal number CFOFT-99-R-105. There are three major revenue sources included in this lockbox Request for Proposal ("RFP"): 1) most District of Columbia taxes, 2) fees collected by the Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs, and 3) motor vehicle and parking fees. More specifically, this RFP includes the following: i) Fourteen lockboxes, ii) Over two billion dollars of tax or other collections or processing, iii) Over one million tax returns, bills or licenses to process, and iv) Over 750,000 remittances or checks to deposit. -- -- -- -- -- The lockboxes are grouped into four Service Groups as follows: i) Office of Tax and Revenue (OTR): Real Property Taxes, Sales and Use Taxes and Arena Fees. These taxes are grouped together because the lockbox contractor must provide an over-the- counter payment capability at either their own branches or the branches ofa partner bank (but not for the Arena Fee). These taxes must be collected exclusively by the lockbox contractor as a portion, or all, of each tax or fee has been pledged to bond holders for the servicing of certain issuance of debt. ii) Office of Tax and Revenue (OTR): Individual Income Taxes, Incorporated and Unincorporated Franchise Taxes, Employer Withholding Taxes, Individual Quarterly Tax Declarations, and Franchise (incorporated and unincorporated) Quarterly Tax Declarations. The District will continue to process the remittances or checks for the Individual and Franchise Tax payments (that are sent in with the returns), but not the quarterly declarations. iii) Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs (DCRA): Corporation and Annual Report Fees, Business License Fees, Occupational and Professional License Fees and Insurance Company and their Representative's Fees. iv) Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV): Motor Vehicle Registration Fees, Parking Registration Fees and Unpaid Ticket Balances all paid on a single renewal form.
