Summary: This amendment to increase Contract No. 12-23-41 will allow the continuation of services for an automated system solution that allows the Assessor's Office to identify individuals that are defrauding the system. The solution makes it easy to submit batches of data with minimal basic input information. These batches are run against a vast collection of public and proprietary databases; the databases include over 585 million unique identities and over 40,000 disparate sources of public records data, giving the County visibility across jurisdictions, for up to 20 years of historic information, with nationwide visibility.
