The Department of General Services and Department of Technology summarize revisions to IT compliance policies in a recent joint memo.
Among the significant changes: The new policy requires oversight and certification of compliance with IT policies by CIOs for IT acquisitions of more than $5,000. (The previous threshold was $100,000.)
Under the new policy, departments also can self-certify that their IT procurement is within their Department of General Services-delegated procurement authority limit or within their California Department of Technology-delegated Project Approval Authority.
