FY 2016 Appropriation

This program is responsible for the creation and maintenance of the division's data warehouse, which contains current and historical financial, personnel, and payroll information. Its mission is to develop the computer tools that will enable personnel in state agencies to access the division's data warehouse and to provide the information needed by agency financial managers. Access to quality financial information should enhance the ability of managers to make sound business decisions. It has resulted in a reduction of printed reports and the amount of time needed. This information is primarily available online.

Appropriation Overview

During the 2015 General Session, the Legislature appropriated for Fiscal Year 2016, $1,146,100 from all sources for Technical Services. This is a 0.5 percent increase from Fiscal Year 2015 revised estimated amounts from all sources. The total includes $1,076,100 from the General/Education Funds, a reduction of 11.1 percent from revised Fiscal Year 2015 estimates.

Percent of Scheduled Time Financial Systems Available

Data warehouse should provide agencies the tools they need to access accurate, current, and historical information from the financial, human resource, and payroll systems. Unscheduled down time should be minimized. Note that the Governor's Office of Management and Budget is currently revamping the performance measures for Administrative Services.

Managers and financial analysts statewide run thousands of queries and standard reports using the data warehouse each month. The data warehouse is reviewed annually by the State Auditor's Office and has been determined to contain reliable data.
