Program: Demographic and Economic Analysis

Function

The Demographic and Economic Analysis (DEA) section manages, analyzes, and disseminates economic, demographic, and fiscal data in order to contribute to improved planning, budgeting, and policy-making, as well as providing economic and demographic forecasts for the state. These forecasts are used for revenue estimates for the governor's budget recommendations and to fulfill a legal requirement to maintain a data center that acts as a liaison with the U.S. Census Bureau.

It also publishes several annual reports that help provide data to universities, non-profit groups, and state departments, on an ongoing basis.

Program: Information Technology

Function

GOPB uses the IT program to account for information technology costs. The program, now operated under contract with the Department of Technology Services (DTS), provides Local Area Network (LAN) and computer desktop support for the Governor's Office and GOPB. The duties of this section revolve around all aspects of computer use and related communications technologies. Prior to the creation of DTS, this program also housed the state's Chief Information Officer.

Funding Detail

The Governor's Office of Planning and Budget has chosen to reduce the General Funds of its IT program in response to budget cuts over the last five years, these reductions amount to 75 percent.

The current balance in General Funds is used on IT type projects. Due to the uncertainty of future revenue estimates, FY 2011 expenditures were kept to a minimum, explaining the large decrease of spending compared to FY 2010.
