The Cuyahoga County Treasurer’s Office awarded a contract for the production, printing, imaging, insertion, and first‑class mailing of approximately 350,000 real‑property tax‑bill packets for the first half of Tax Year 2022. The scope includes generating CD‑based PDF images of each bill, performing CASS‑certified mail‑cleansing, and meeting a stringent five‑business‑day turnaround from receipt of the live billing file to mailing.

Insurance requirements include $1 million general liability and workers’ compensation, with the County added as an additional insured. The procurement was conducted via an open invitation to bid (RFP OBM‑0013) and the award was announced on September 6 2022.
