SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The Executive Office Purchasing Division and Fleet and Facilities provide billing, distribution, delivery and pickup services of U.S. and interdepartmental mail for all County maintained facilities. Postage is purchased in bulk and high-end postage metering equipment is required to process mail which typically averages one thousand pieces per day. The current postage metering equipment has processed almost 1.2 million pieces of Countywide mail over the past 5 years.
