BRIEF SUMMARY OF BASIC PROCEDURES Attached is a general comprehensive flow chart of how accounts are handled. After data entry (hard copy or electronically), the first notice is sent within 24 hours. All accounts are scrubbed for cell phones and called by our automated dialer. This provides maximum coverage to obtain a positive debtor response.. Certain accounts are credit scored. 12 25H-32 • After the first notice, a full compliment of notices are sent. Copies of our letters are included.in this RFP. • Accounts are referred to a collector if no response from the automated dialer, or no payment, or if skip work needed. • Eligible accounts are reported to Experian 60 days after the first notice. • Skiptracing through an automated download to Accurint is utilized as needed. • American utilizes a number of skiptracing tools including integrated collection software, internet based, and manual efforts. Commercial accounts and balances over $1,000 are personally worked by our in-house attorney to generate results. Our current options are: • Experian Credit Reports • Accurint • Surelock (collection system based) • Google • 411 Reverse Directory • Whitepages.com INTERNET SOURCES AND INTERNAL DATA BASES ALLOW US TO SEARCH: PUBLIC FILING AND INFORMATION: Property Tax Uniform Commercial Claims (UCC) filings Secure Loans/Debts Fictitious Business (DBA's) California Corporation/Limited Partnerships Board of Equalizations Department of Consumer Affairs Contractors License California Civil Index fillings 13 25H-33 ADDRESS AND TELEPHONE INFORMATION PROVIDING: Exact address matches and nearbys Exact name matches Similar names with zip codes areas Phone number matches (both Home and Business) 14 25H-34 L V a V r' u S ro y sro u G h I C C Z c G � � L u ea E o` �G u` C Z U3 ro O s•c °° c 7 'L a '^ 4 a .e o N w V .n`.

Shown is 1996 — January 2014 as of that date only. It reflects a 40-50.60% recovery rate on some categories with an overall recovery rate in excess of 10% on nearly $40,000,000 in assignments ITD. We've relied on this chart because we received no placements from 2014 to October of 2017. For the City placements received over the last 18 months,_please see the extensive reports, submitted electronically and directly to "Purchasing" at its request. These stats are for all 40 categories separately on which you resumed assigning us in October of 2017. Those reports, consisting, of 150 pages, have been omitted here for brevity. SERVICES THAT DIFFERENTIATE AMERICAN FROM OTHERS The most important additional collection service is that our attorney personally works your business accounts. This adds extra value to your current American contract. The staff working your type "of accounts, has nearly 100 years of municipal account experience which is rarely duplicated at other agencies. American can provide access to our collection platform on your accounts. 17 26H-63 Unlike some agencies bidding from distant states from your residents, American is local to the Southern California area, This allows the debtor to visit our office for payments and counseling. COORDINATION REQUIRED BETWEEN CUSTOMER, CITY AND AGENCY All the necessary coordination is already in place and working efficiently. MINIMUM DOLLAR AMOUNT ACCEPTED All balance sizes are accepted for collections. With our dialer technology, small balance accounts get equal treatment. ACCESS TO AMERICAN'S DATA BASE American would allow computer access to your collection accounts with certain security protocols. MEASURING AND EVALUATING CUSTOMER SERVICE Internal customer service is evaluated on a daily basis by supervisors who observe the operation. See below, RESOLVING COMPLAINTS Customer service complaints are logged and all supervisor calls are taken by the Operations Manger. This ensures the customer has been treated fairly and professionally. She.also handles any BBB and CFPB complaints which are minimal. LEGAL COMPLIANCE Attorney owned and operated, American has a robust compliance program in sync with all FDCPA, HIPAA,,FCRA, Red Flag and other regulatory statutes. In 25H-64 INFORMATION SECURITY American has information Security Policies and Procedures. IDENTITY THEFT / RED FLAG RULE5 American has Red Flag Rules, Policies and Procedures. CONDUCT PROVISIONS AND TRAINING Collectors are compliance trained on an ongoing basis by the in- house attorney. ESTIMATED CONVERSION TIMEFRAME We are currently on board and no conversion or City expense is necessary for our continued business relationship COLLECTED MONIES FORWARDED TO CLIENTS American sends its check and Remittance Statement the 20a' of the month following the month of collection. TIMING AND METHOD OF CLIENT PAYMENT American operates on a "net remit" basis. CREDIT REPORTING Eligible accounts are reported to Experian if unpaid after 60 days. AUTHORITY TO COLLECT American is authorized to do business in all states except certain closed states requiring a licensed office in their state, This impact Is negligible for CA creditors. 19 25H-65 OFFICE HOURS AND PHONES We are open 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday and have an 800 number. We work Saturdays as needed. Payments can be made 24/7 on our website. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST There are no conflicts of interest In connection with this RFP. MAINTAINING INFORMATION All necessary information is maintained electronically on the computer and through•our vendor with backup stored off -site. SHORT TIME PLANS TO ENHANCE RECOVERIES Although American believes it maximizes'recbverles on a daily basis, it is open to discussing any special City projects or requests. ADDITIONAL INFO TO AID THE CITY IN THE SELECTION PROCESS American respectfully reminds the City that any new Agency would have a learning curve. Therefore, valuable City time and resources may need to be expended in addition to unknown collection results and uncertain pirofessionalism. With respect to rates, a very low commission rate can actually result in lower net back dollars to you because unrealistic commission rates prevent an Agency from doing all that is financially necessary to maximize recoveries. 20 25H-66 :z < Z ca P n � VJ co LL 0 0 C d V fJ z Z W Q F EL U U uj w a HISTORICAL RECOVERY % CHART O¢UCU)wu¢LLiL � LLLLFzaCLCLM0°'axa2 acfu¢i¢��a��� U U U U U U U U U U U U U U O D U U U 0 U U U U V U U U O O M 3°0<> <a oo ;11 o o v o o ao o a ao a ;z; a e el 4 a� FN U W C'MMN M ItYNp OM1r OrhM hm PN m r O 'V W N M1LLi C'O01 d''R I�pONO tOO mm W W r rM10 W O ¢M Mqq M G77M��KI M ) 0 N tD O rr0 pUH VAN V' t:� Of`• LL Q a rOr I. t11 OrNmom MmmPh QPh W c{rp+.
