Information Technology Management and Budget Planning

The State of Kansas requires all state agencies to submit an annual report to the Kansas Legislature and ITEC, outlining their IT plans over the next three years. The purpose of this annual report is to present a high-level view of information technology (IT) activities in Kansas. Information technology plays an important role in the quality of services delivered by government and the manner in which citizens and businesses can interact with their government. The presence of technology, particularly communications services, is an important factor in the economic vitality of a State and the quality of life of its citizens. Technology is also causing profound changes upon people, society, business, and government.

The planning model used in Kansas is shown at the following link: IT Planning Control Diagram (pdf). The process has five important components: the Strategic Information Management Plan (SIM Plan), the Annual Summary of Agency Three Year Information Technology Management and Budget Plans, project planning process, budget request process, and the Kansas Information Technology Architecture.

The Annual Summary of Agency Three Year IT Management and Budget Plans document is 25% strategic and 75% tactical. Annually, each State agency is asked to submit a Three Year Information Technology Management and Budget Plan outlining their information systems accomplishments for the past State Fiscal Year (SFY), current State Fiscal Year activities, and strategies for future years. These plans are used as important management tools for the effective implementation of information systems to achieve the agency's strategic objectives, and to assist in coordinating the systems and activities of State government organizations.
