RE: S.B. No. 2807
S.D. 1
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Twenty-Eighth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2016
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committees on Economic Development, Environment, and Technology and Government Operations, to which was referred S.B. No. 2807 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO ENTERPRISE TECHNOLOGY SERVICES,"
beg leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to:
(1) Clearly establish the Chief Information Officer as the State's information technology leader;
(2) Delete statutory references to the Information and Communication Services Division of the Department of Accounting and General Services; and
(3) Consolidate the Office of Information Management and Technology and the Information and Communication Services Division of the Department of Accounting and General Services, including all related information technology functions, in the Office of Enterprise Technology Services under the direction of the Chief Information Officer.
Your Committees received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Accounting and General Services and Office of Enterprise Technology Services.
Your Committees find that the State's management of information technology requires an effective chief information officer and clearly defined roles, duties, and responsibilities to ensure that its information technology investments are cost effective, are well utilized, are adequately planned for future growth, and have the ability to adapt to changing requirements.
Your Committees have amended this measure by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity and consistency.
As affirmed by the records of votes of the members of your Committees on Economic Development, Environment, and Technology and Government Operations that are attached to this report, your Committees are in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2807, as amended herein, and recommend that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2807, S.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Ways and Means.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committees on Economic Development, Environment, and Technology and Government Operations,
