20 Assumptions Date Assumption Description Elimination of multiple databases (prior years): Staff Time Savings entering variations of the same data in multiple databases & 4410C (prior yr). Savings: 350 $35 = $147,000 annually. Elimination of multiple databases (current year): Staff Time - Savings entering variations of the same data in multiple databases & 4410B (current). Savings: 50 $35 = $21,000 annually. Elimination of special handling procedures: Staff Time - Special handling of unique cases (i.e. DTE, Consumers, Michcon), track future adjustments, what if calcs, assessors, taxpayers, attorneys, Equalization, treasurers. Savings: 100 $35 = $42,000 annually. Time savings due to data accuracy: Data accuracy Values will be cleaner because of the way we are going to bring in values from finalized tax rolls. (rates, values, PRE %, class, sd, name/address, s/a). Savings: 285 $35 = $119,700. Elimination of sending reports: Ability to print reports in office for assessors saves IT staff from having to breakdown and fax reports. Saves assessors from having to drive to IT to pick up reports (affidavits etc). 25 hours a year would be saved on faxing. Save on weekly courier to Equalization. Savings: 25 $35 = $875 annually. Elimination of work that Assessors can now do on their own: Time savings Assessors will be able to enter their changes directly into the system and the treasurer s office won t have to wait on reports/affidavits from the local assessors. Intangible Frequency is increased, moreover the day of the BOR they can increase efficiency for both assessors and taxpayers. No dual entry for assessors. Can print/sign BOR affidavits real-time. Can scan important documents (i.e. deeds, PTA, rescinds). Eliminates research for treasurers office. Savings: 50 $35 = $21,000 annually. Improved Management planning tools: Staff Management Supervisors will have the ability to view incoming work load of their staff. This could help with managing time off, assigning staff to other projects during slower times. Intangible Treasurer Management will be able to forecast upcoming workload, as they will see adjustments they occur where now they must wait until they receive them. Savings: 5 $35 = $2,100 annually. Automation of invoice/advice processing: Automation of ing invoice/advices to tax authorities. Currently this is a manual process that is very time consuming. Monies will be received from tax authorities sooner; investments will be able to better forecast accounts receivables. Authorities can access info for any date range. Savings: 30 $35 = $12,600 TaxMgmtSystem_ROI[1].xls/Assumptions Page 13 REV: June 27, 2011
