10:25 AM -- Update on Offender Management System Project, Department of Corrections
Mr. Rick Vyncke, representing the Colorado Department of Corrections (DOC), came to the table to update the committee on the Offender Management Information System project. The work to be completed under the project will centralize DOC data to eliminate gaps in DOC's IT systems. He noted the project is on track with its implementation goals. He also discussed the next steps for the project and highlighted Phase 2 and Phase 3. He stated that DOC is not requesting funding this fiscal year because vendor payments are tied to performance, which will not happen until FY 2017-18. In response to committee questions, Mr. Vyncke discussed DOC's implementation of best practices and DOC's willingness to modify business processes to adapt to changing technology. He also noted that some business processes are statutory and cannot be changed without new legislation.
