10:17 AM -- Senate Bill 13-190 - Concerning the Colorado Financial Reporting System Modernization Project

Representative Gerou, prime sponsor, distributed a handout on the bill (Attachment A) and explained the provisions of the bill. She began by saying that the bill authorizes the State Treasurer to enter into lease-purchase agreements on behalf of the Governor's Office of Information Technology (OIT) for a period of up to nine years to complete the Colorado Financial Reporting System (COFRS) Modernization project. She noted that the bill will result in a $3.8 million savings from the General Fund. Representative Gerou continued by noting the bill also requires OIT to add specific functions to COFRS identified as important by various legislative agencies, or to provide an explanation as to why such functionality cannot be incorporated into the system.
