TAX Property Tax Relief Screening System RFP

The Ohio Department of Taxation is seeking a vendor to design, develop, and operate a “no‑cost” property tax relief screening system that will automate eligibility determination for the Owner Occupancy Credit and Homestead Exemption programs.

The solicitation follows a double‑envelope RFP process, includes a virtual pre‑proposal conference, and requires submission by early October 2026. • Develop a secure, web‑based screening application that interfaces with Ohio tax data. • Provide hosting, maintenance, and ongoing support at no cost to the agency. • Deliver training, documentation, and analytics/reporting tools for program administrators. • Ensure compliance with State IT Policy Standards and the Master Cloud Services Agreement. • Submit a detailed technical proposal (envelope 1) and a cost proposal (envelope 2) by the deadline.
