Budget Highlights
The Statewide Financial System Project is responsible for developing and maintaining a single statewide financial system for use by all agencies. With the system expected to “go live” in April 2012, the recommended budget of $55 million represents the first budget under which the new system will be fully operational for the first phase of 63 agencies. As a result, the budget reflects new ongoing operating costs associated with the transformation from project status to operating system. These new costs are partially offset by reductions in equipment and consulting contract costs. Contingency appropriations of $5 million are included to mitigate any unforeseen circumstances arising during the initial months of system operation.
The Executive Budget recommends a workforce of 145 FTEs. This is an increase of 9 FTEs from the 2011-12 budget, and reflects additional staff needed to support agencies during their transition to the new system.
