AB 522, as introduced, Burke. Public contracts: information technology: contractor performance assessment report.
Existing law establishes in state government the Department of Technology within the Government Operations Agency. Existing law provides that the Department of Technology is responsible for the approval and oversight of specified information technology projects.
Existing law sets forth requirements for the acquisition of goods and services by state agencies and sets forth the various responsibilities of the Department of General Services and other state agencies in overseeing and implementing state contracting procedures and policies.
