 Preface to the FY 2006 Annual IT Expenditures Report 
GTA issues state's fifth annual IT expenditures report In cooperation with state agencies, GTA has compiled and issued a report about information technology expenditures for Georgia state agencies for FY 2006. The report makes it possible to easily see how much is spent on IT to support specific categories of government services and policy areas. The purpose of the report is to ensure accurate budgeting and accounting for IT expenditures, staff, hardware, software, telecom and data services, and computer supplies. State law requires GTA to collect information about IT expenditures from agencies each year and compile a report for distribution to state leaders. For FY 2006, agencies reported spending a total of $482.9 million on information technology. State funds accounted for $220.2 million of the total amount with the remainder coming primarily from the federal government. These amounts do not include expenditures by the Board of Regents. The largest amount -- $247.5 million, or 51.3 percent of total expenditures -- was spent on the policy area  Healthy Georgia. Other policy areas, amounts and percentages are the following: Educated Georgia: $38,803,284 or 8 percent Safe Georgia: $58,341,532 or 12.1 percent Best Managed State: $130,811,665 or 27.1 percent Growing Georgia: $7,393,424 or 1.5 percent

Agency IT Projects 
 PROJECT A: Network Security 
Project Description and Benefit: GTA is charged with securing state government information systems. A new contract for disaster recovery (DR) services represents one way GTA is ensuring the security of the state's computer platforms and applications. The contract will provide greater coverage of the data center at a reduced cost. A SONET (Synchronous Optical Network) ring will reroute traffic in the case of an event, also adding redundancy to the wide area network and reducing overall points of failure. GTA also has established a security vulnerability assessment process which includes procedural reviews and network scans. After piloting the process internally, GTA will conduct assessments of agencies with their involvement. GTA is beginning to deploy virtual private network (VPN) technology to allow secure access to the state network through the Internet without the need for dedicated circuits or a separate network.

 PROJECT B: Enterprise Integration 
Project Description and Benefit: GTA is working to improve and implement effective integration and data sharing among the state agencies. It is one of the key success factors for the State of Georgia. Currently, there are minimal services that are shared among the agencies. Pointto-point is the prevalent method of integration. Data sharing happens on application-toapplication basis, creating silos of redundant data technologies. Agency recognition of the need to share data and services among themselves along with technology advances has allowed the State of Georgia to create a comprehensive approach to integration. There are four primary business goals driving the enterprise integration: 
o Increase data sharing between agencies and thus improving efficiency of data interchange 
o Decrease system complexity by providing a central integration infrastructure rather than connecting systems to each other one at a time 
o Provide a connection point for cross platform data retrieval to improve overall system security.

 PROJECT C: Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) 
Project Description and Benefit: A VoIP solution will provide a link between voice services to other applications and data which will allow state employees to work more efficiently and smarter. Under the proposed statewide contract, BellSouth will provide and manage VoIP service as an end to end service. The service will include implementation, installation, invoicing and maintenance of the solution. 
o Statewide Availability  The solution is available throughout all the regions of the state, regardless of the local carrier. 
o Price Equality  The pricing is the same regardless of geographic location or site density. 
o No Minimum Commitment - The solution offers the ability to migrate users to the new platform at their own pace with no financial risk. 
o A la Carte Enhanced User Features The optional features can be provided on a per station basis and allows VoIP users to avoid paying a higher cost for a bundle of features if only one or two features are needed.

Agency Major IT Accomplishments 
 Relocated data center to a state-of-the-art, highly secure facility GTA relocated the state's data center to a state-of-the-art, highly secure facility outside of Atlanta. The old data center was more than 30 years old and had serious infrastructure and security problems. The successful move was the result of more than a year of planning and preparation and the dedication and teamwork of more than 200 people across GTA and other agencies. 
The state now has a data center with the highest level of efficiency, reliability and security. The new data center is a good value as well: Leasing  rather than purchasing  a facility freed $18 million in bond money that the state could use for other purposes. 
3 
 
 Georgia Technology Authority 
The state data center provides support for more than 125 state computer applications such as law enforcement, tag and title, driver's license, revenue collections, temporary assistance for needy families and the state's human resources and financial systems. 
 Completed upgrade of the state's WAN to MPLS 
GTA completed the upgrade of the state's wide area network (WAN) to multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) technology. A total of 2,068 circuits at state agencies throughout Georgia now connect to the state's new WAN. The previous network, based on Frame Relay, was rapidly becoming technically obsolete. 
Through competitive bidding, GTA contracted with BellSouth in 2004 to upgrade and manage the state's WAN. Agencies are reporting significantly faster response times in accessing critical databases. They are also getting greater value for the money spent on network services. Agencies are realizing up to a 76 percent increase in bandwidth at no additional overall cost. The MPLS network is also highly reliable. Outage hours at 174 Corrections sites dropped from 168 in November 2004, when the sites relied on the previous network, to only one in November 2005 following conversion to the MPLS network. 
MPLS offers other advantages besides speed, competitive pricing and reliability.  It lays a solid foundation for transmitting voice, data and video together over a single network. This convergence makes new service options, such as Voice over IP, a viable alternative in some circumstances.  Network administrators are able to assign priorities to network traffic. Certain transmissions, such as Voice over IP, video conferencing or law enforcement and public safety, can take precedence over other transmissions.  MPLS makes it easier to meet demands for better security. 
 Negotiated significant rate reductions for Centrex services 
GTA attained significant reductions in Centrex rates for state and local governments by renegotiating contracts with BellSouth and Alltel. GTA projects savings of $27.6 million over five years. The contract also sets stronger service terms. GTA supported a total of 139,630 Centrex lines statewide as of December 1, 2006. 
 Strengthening security 
Access  Over the past year, GTA implemented many measures to tighten access to state IT systems and data: 
 Better firewalls and intrusion prevention and detection system  Strict password controls 
4 
 
 Georgia Technology Authority 
 More detailed review of logs and alerts to quickly identify and stop unusual or suspicious activity 
 New guidelines to limit employees' access to confidential information and prohibit the downloading of sensitive information to home computers 
 Expanded employee background checks 
Protection of state systems  GTA is constantly upgrading systems to prevent hackers from breaking in or disrupting operations. GTA works with leading security firms to ensure the most robust, up-to-date tools and safeguards. During the past year, GTA: 
 Installed tools to block attacks in real time.  Tightened firewall rules to restrict more traffic from the Internet.  Developed new standards for firewall configurations to closely control external 
and internal access to state servers.  Installed stronger security measures and protective software on GTA 
workstations.  Applied patches to systems accessible from the Internet to protect against attacks. 
Desktop security  GTA began offering agencies desktop intrusion prevention software that works with other programs to provide an additional layer of security on desktop PCs and laptops. The software protects against known viruses and worms, spyware and hacker attacks. Agencies can install and manage the software themselves or have GTA manage it for them. 
Business continuity and disaster recovery  GTA, GEMA and Southern Polytechnic State University sponsored an exercise for agencies to test their business continuity/disaster recovery plans. Participants used their plans to respond to a practice "disaster." GTA also completed a disaster recovery exercise for the state data center. The successful event tested new technology to back up systems, disaster declaration procedures and an automated notification system. At the direction of the Governance Council, GTA and the CIO Council are surveying agencies to assess readiness for business continuity and disaster recovery. GTA and the CIO Council also are working to develop a disaster recovery policy for state government IT. 
Online payments  GTA and state agencies worked together to comply with security requirements established by the payment card industry (PCI) to ensure that the state's online transactions are as secure as possible. Meeting the standards required rewriting or modifying applications capable of receiving online payments and, in some cases, temporarily turning off applications that were not compliant. 
 Improving government operations 
Efficient management of e-mail  Based on recommendations by the Commission for a New Georgia, GTA began the IT Efficiency and Modernization (ITEM) project. One of the project's initiatives involves assessing the benefits of creating a single e-mail system for state government. GTA completed a review of state agency e-mail

infrastructure and business and technical requirements. GTA also will study and recommend strategies for managing the state's servers and desktop computers. 
Comprehensive upgrade of the General Assembly LAN  GTA assisted the Georgia General Assembly in planning and managing the procurement of a comprehensive upgrade of their entire legislative LAN. The upgrade included new wiring, new servers, new desktops and improved security. Legislators, staff and the public also have convenient wireless access anywhere on Capitol Hill. 
GBI sex offender registry application  GTA worked with the GBI to develop a Web services interface for the bureau's sex offender registry application, which enables Georgia to participate in the National Sex Offender Public Registry. The national registry is a service of the U.S. Department of Justice. 
Data sharing among agencies  A comprehensive data sharing and integration infrastructure developed by GTA allows state agencies to share data securely and effectively. GTA conducted successful pilot projects with several agencies, including the GBI, Human Resources, Driver Services and Natural Resources. For example, on behalf of the child support agency, DNR withheld hunting and fishing licenses from parents who fail to pay child support. GTA is working with additional agencies to include new systems and databases. 
IT investments and decision making  A revised process implemented by GTA and OPB helps the state to better plan, budget and manage new IT projects. GTA is also assisting agencies with more detailed planning and analysis of critical IT projects that cost more than $5 million. 
Project management  GTA received the Project Management Institute Atlanta Chapter's Presidential Award, which recognizes commitment to the discipline of project management. GTA conducted 10 training events during the year to promote best practices, including a series of four courses designed to help state agencies manage projects more effectively. More than 20 agencies participated in the filled-to-capacity courses. 
GTA successfully managed several major projects during the year, including:  State data center relocation  Statewide Automated Child Welfare Information System (SACWIS), federal approval for implementation phase  PeopleSoft HCM project 
The Critical Projects Review Panel keeps senior executives in the Governor's office aware of the status of large IT projects. The process is helping to ensure that projects are completed on time, on budget and within scope. The project success rate is double the national average.

Team Georgia Connection  Working with the Governor's Office, GTA designed and launched the statewide employee intranet to improve communication and provide tools for productivity. A survey completed just six months after the launch found that employees were pleased with the new service: 88% reported that they found the information they were looking for, and 98% reported that they would revisit the site. 
Asset management  GTA is working with the State Accounting Office on a Commission for a New Georgia initiative to better manage the state's assets. GTA and the Department of Administrative Services worked with a vendor to design the statewide application, which will inventory and track motor vehicles, surplus property, and capital and IT assets. GTA will host the application following the testing and pilot phases. OPB will use the information to make budget decisions about state assets. 
Wireless communications  GTA completed a six-month project with the Board of Pardons and Paroles designed to give wireless access to field operations staff throughout the state. Participating employees were able to connect to the agency's network from their laptop computers using wireless connectivity provided by three carriers. 
Wireless Communities Georgia  GTA is providing oversight of the Wireless Communities Georgia Program to assist local governments in establishing wireless broadband networks. Governor Perdue proposed the program in early 2006, and the General Assembly approved $4 million in funding. GTA developed the application for funds and evaluation criteria, conducted information sessions for interested communities and participated in evaluating the 17 applications submitted. The program's goals are to promote economic development, expand educational opportunities and improve the availability and efficiency of government services. 
VoIP  GTA began exploring ways that Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) can link voice services with applications and data so that employees can work smarter. GTA involved state agencies and vendors in developing its approach to VoIP services. GTA 
 hosted a VoIP information session for vendors and agencies in November 2005  implemented VoIP at two Child Support Services call centers and selected 
technical colleges in 2006; the call centers respond to an average of 2,000 calls daily and have the capacity to answer 6,000 calls daily  conducted a 180-day trial of VoIP with four different vendors, each assigned to a different state agency; the trial was completed in July 2006  posted a draft of the RFP requirements for enterprise VoIP services on the Georgia Procurement Registry and invited vendor comments. 
Portal improvements  GTA began revamping the state's Web site, www.georgia.gov. A first step increased the number of online services and transactions from 67 to 124. Other improvements include 
 A compilation of forms from various state agencies is now easily accessible from a single page at www.forms.georgia.gov

 PROJECT A: Spend Management/Strategic Sourcing/Data Warehouse

Agency IT Projects 
 PROJECT A: Food Safety Field System Automation 
Project Description and Benefit: Food safety inspectors currently use paper forms to complete inspections. Completed forms are sent to field offices to be keypunched into a reporting system. This is a cumbersome, inefficient process, and information is not received from the field staff in a timely fashion. Also, when the USDA changes the model inspection template, new forms must be reproduced and distributed to the field personnel. By automating the process inspectors would be able to complete inspections more quickly, and processes could be designed in to automatically ensure that all prescribed steps are followed. In addition, reports could be generated in a more timely fashion that would enable program management to spot trends and possible health risks to the populations.

 PROJECT B: Weights Inspection Field Automation System 
Project Description and Benefit: Current inspection process is accomplished using paper forms that are sent to a central location for manual entry into a data collection application. This process is inefficient and has many opportunities for transcription errors. Inspectors in this program also need computer equipment to allow them to be cross-trained to perform other field inspections performed by the Department.

Therefore, we have not calculated a project cost since it may be rolled in with the above project.

 PROJECT A: Offender Accounting System Replacement 
Project Description and Benefit: 95% of Corrections' accounting is at high risk for failure, the replacement to the current system will allow for greater functionality. This allows for increased accountability for the offender as well as staff. The current system is server based and therefore the information cannot be shared and accessed by all involved locations and/or divisions. By sharing critical information, it enhances public safety and the safety of our employees. The Probation Division alone has vulnerability if the current system were to fail. The division would be forced to revert to a hand entry, receipt method of collecting approximately 48 million dollars at almost 100 sites.

 PROJECT P: Electronic Digital Imaging System (EDIS) Feasibility Study 
Project Description and Benefit: DDS has no single means of capturing, storing, and accessing document images. Currently, DDS utilizes microfilm, microfiche, and CDs (created from a previous vendor). DDS is in the process of purchasing scanners which will produce microfilm, CDs, and images. The Driver's License (DL) RFP which will be released in the fall of 2006 will include the option for the vendor to provide scanners for collection of verification documents at our Customer Service Centers. DDS desires to bring on board someone with expertise in this area to perform a feasibility study and prepare an RFP so that we can move forward with building a robust agency-wide imaging solution. In the interim, DDS is in the process of preparing a library of all forms used that need to be imaged. Information such as origin, retention period, and frequency of use, size, special features, and index fields are being collected. This information will serve as very useful once the feasibility study begins. Additionally, once the Real ID act goes into effect the Department Of Driver Services will be required to capture and maintain the source identification documentation. This information will be utilized to verify driver identification and further ensure that ineligible drivers are not provided a drivers license.

 PROJECT R: Motor Carrier Safety Improvement Act (MCSIA) 
Project Description and Benefit: The Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Act--or CMVSA--was passed in 1998 in an effort to improve highway safety as it related to commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers. The Commercial Driver's License Program was created as a result of CMVSA. The Motor Carrier Safety Improvement Act of 1999--or MCSIA--further strengthened the CDL Program through more vehicle and driver inspections and carrier compliance reviews, stronger enforcement, expedited completion of rules, and effective CDL testing, record keeping, and sanctions. The goal of both the CMVSA and MCSIA was to improve highway safety by ensuring that drivers of commercial motor vehicles were qualified to operate those vehicles and to remove unsafe and unqualified drivers from the highways. The Department of Driver Services (DDS) is the agency statutorily recognized as being responsible for the administration of laws and administrative rules related to Commercial Driver's Licensing within the State of Georgia. This includes ensuring that Georgia's overall CDL program is compliant with MCSIA mandates.

 PROJECT S: Uniform Traffic Citation (UTC) Redesign 
Project Description and Benefit: DDS is in the initial stages of kicking off a short-term project to redesign the current Uniform Traffic Citation (UTC) to include several new federally required fields (ex. fatal accident indicator), improve the layout, and simplify the process of using the UTC for local law enforcement agencies. The DDS will assemble a project task force comprised of representatives of all size state and local law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, courts, and other interested parties that utilize the UTC in processing convictions to the DDS. The team will be charged with redesigning the current UTC so that it incorporates new state and federal required data fields, improves the layout, and improves the processing of the UTC from the law enforcement agencies to DDS.

 PROJECT AA: Driver's License Issuance Rewrite - Phase 1 
Project Description and Benefit: The initial step of the Issuance Rewrite project is to conduct an external analysis to determine the future needs, viability and infrastructure requirements necessary to replace the existing mainframe driver's license system. The existing system is 7 years old and in need of replacement. Continued enhancements and modifications make the application highly vulnerable to failure and results in increased development and troubleshooting time and expense. A feasibility analysis will be conducted to determine the most effective replacement solution that will have a longer lifecycle, improve the ability to respond to industry and legislative changes and meet the needs of the state of Georgia.

Agency IT Projects 
 PROJECT A: Grants Management 
Project Description and Benefit: This project involves the development of a web-based application that will enable Bright from the Start staff to administer several grant programs that were placed under the authority of the agency during the merger of several different entities which created Bright from the Start in October of 2004. The first phase of this project involves a user interface and backend database to collect and store information on all applicants, there ratings/scores, any amounts granted and results of monitoring activities. This project will directly benefit the agency by providing automated access to data that can be shared. Outside reviewers are used for ratings of applicants and future phases will seek to open application and review via the Web.

 PROJECT B: Infrastructure 
Project Description and Benefit: This project involves a forklift upgrade to many areas of functionality on the backend of the network. Short timeframes and pressures from the agency merger and growth has contributed to the increasing use of desktops as limited function servers. In addition, several mission critical servers are greater than 5 years old and require upgrade and repair. There is also limited space available for any expansion or upgrade. The agency is determined to provide a holistic solution for the issues. This project involves some structural work to the server room with the installation of new racks and an integrated UPS solution. Once this is complete the agency will transition current functions provided by desktops to a component of new blade servers and a SAN solution. This project will benefit the agency by reducing the risk associated with limited redundancy systems in the backend. Additionally, the SAN install will provide solutions to agency needs in the application development area, disk-to-disk backup capacity, and expansion of capabilities for the future as the agency grows. A portion of this project will also include the upgrade of server OS to Windows Server 2003.

Chapter 3  Applications Profile 
(Program, Function, Business Impact, etc.) 
Application A: 
PANDA 
 Program or Sub-Program: Pre-K Program Development  Description of Application Function: The PANDA application is a web-based application that is used by internal staff as well as the public. This interface is used to administer Georgia's Pre-K program. This application is the main source of data for all business functions associated with the Pre-K program including Applications (Phase I), Payments (Phase II), and Performance Monitoring (Phase III). Public applications are submitted via the Internet. These applications are reviewed by field staff across the state via the Internet. Awards are processed via the PANDA application. Awards trigger the approval for payments (10 per school year). Payments to over 900 different public and private entities are calculated via the PANDA application. An AP file is uploaded into PeopleSoft and all payments are made via EFT. The PANDA application serves as an accounting subsystem for audit purposes. The PANDA application is also linked to a client application (PANDA Performance Monitoring - PM Client) that provides the repository for information on Performance Monitoring visits made by agency field staff (program consultants).

 Risk Assessment 
In FY06, DHR implemented a client server/web based solution that allowed child welfare caseworkers to download risk assessment forms to their tablets. Caseworkers had the mobility to interview and record data on the tablets and sync up with the statewide server when returning to the office. To improve "ease of use" the decision was made to scale back the project. The workers no longer synchronize up with a statewide server, now they save the forms to their local server. By the end of FY06, the solution had been implemented in 70 counties. The plan is for all 159 counties to be using the tool by midSeptember 2006. This is an interim solution until SACWIS is deployed. 
 Child Protective Services (Statewide Automated Child Welfare Information System (SACWIS)) 
The SACWIS information and case management system was designed to improve the effectiveness, efficiency, consistency and timeliness of social services provision to families and children. It will allow the sharing of information across programs in a secure environment. RFP completed and vendor selected, contract awarded in November 2005, finalized application requirements. 
 TeenWork 2006 
TeenWork was created in April 2005 by the First Lady's Children's Cabinet. The program equips foster teens throughout the state of Georgia marketable skills and supportive mentoring. The TeenWork program offers summer employment in foster care. TeenWork 2006 consists of enhancements for the previous application. The scope included the enhanced features for the Teen Work 2006 application. The enhancements consist of creating features to assist the Independent Living Coordinators (ILCs) to make their jobs more efficient by allowing the system to validate if applicants are currently in the system, as well as, removal duplicates in the system; to view applicants and employers within their specific region; all employers in the system are sorted by their regions; providing a log on screen for the ILC's displaying only the employers and applicants within their region; allowing the ILCs to match applicants and employees in the system and provide automated reports. 
 AIMS 
AIMS is the production system that supports the many varied programs of the Division of Aging Services (DAS). Significant new enhancements to AIMS this year included the new Adult Protective Services (APS) module. The APS program was transferred to DAS from DFCS, and this new functionality incorporates APS cases into AIMS. This new module uses web-based technology and is one more step in the ongoing process to completely convert AIMS to a web-based system. 
 Asset Management 
The Enterprise Asset Management System (EAM) provides a secure and automated process for managing all DHR assets. This project directly supports the DHR strategic 
228 
 
 Georgia Department of Human Resources 
goals of "Cost Control" and "Process Improvement". The management of assets can be broken down into several key areas, Asset Inventory, Software usage and Software compliance. 
 AVATAR Upgrade 
The AVATAR Upgrade replaces Netsmart (NTST) Behavioral Healthcare Information System (BHIS) the Division of MHDDAD current hospital system. The AVATAR Hospital Information System will replace the existing hospital census management and billing applications. The project kicked-off in FY06, milestone accomplishments are; Upgrade of the data center hardware to support the Avatar application, Software installation, Gap analysis, and Initiation of the testing of customizations to the software. 
 Bio Terrorism (BT)  Public Health Directory 
Under the Bio-Terrorism Program the Public Health Directory was created to assist in the initial response to a terrorist attack or covert event as it relate to public health. The directory is a critical component of the comprehensive operational communication strategy for BT. It was operational as of February 2006 and provides for a ingle directory for Public Health Directors, Doctors, Nurses, and Pharmacist located within the state of Georgia with notifications and emergency alerts to an extended health community. 
 Data Center Relocation 
GTA moved the state's data center, which included the state's mainframe computers and portal servers along with their extensive supporting components and network connections from Capitol Hill to the new North Atlanta Data Center. DHR worked closely with GTA to minimize the impact on DHR clients, with most downtime occurring on weekends and holidays. A critical DHR role in the project has been the testing and certification of the 58 different DHR applications after they were moved. DHR's commitment to the project included 87 total staff and 3,600 man-hours over a 7 month period. 
 Data Circuit Upgrade (MPLS  Multi-Protocol Label Switching) 
As a result of the new GTA  BellSouth contract DHR needed to convert the old MCI circuits to BellSouth by June 30 to avoid significant monthly increases. In Fiscal Year 2006, the MPLS project team converted 590 DHR sites to MPLS. The upgrade allowed DHR to modernize the network while adjusting bandwidth to the appropriate capacity. 
 Desktop Security Suite Rollout 
The Work Station Configuration Management Initiative will lower support costs, improve availability, and will help ensure security. The Desktop Security Suite that was rolled out consists of the components, Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, and Patch Management.

 Distance Learning Initiatives 
The Satellite Distance Learning project was designed to create a statewide network of training sites capable of receiving programs broadcast by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Public Health Training Network. DPH identified 31 priority public health and hospital sites for the installation based on a goal of ensuring access no more than 45 minutes from any potential viewer's worksite. In addition, DPH is establishing a network of videoconferencing sites on the GSAMS network to increase local opportunities for distance learning and improve communications between the state and the districts and among the districts at reduced travel costs. Installed 26 satellites receiving across the state and installed videoconferencing systems at sites across the state. 
 Enterprise Project Management (EPM) 
The Enterprise Project Management was deployed in fiscal year 2006 using Microsoft Project Server and SharePoint. This provides DHR management with the critical information it needs to make timely and informed decisions. In addition, it assist in keeping the organization's project portfolio in line with strategic initiatives and priorities and to promote successful projects through the provision of a shared, standardized environment for project teams.

Agency IT Projects 
 PROJECT A: Continued Enhancement of Grants Database (DJJ as parent agency provides this to us at no cost to CYCC) 
Project Description and Benefit: A unified database will provide real-time information on the 200+ grants that CYCC administers throughout the State. Detailed information about these multiple projects will allow for greater oversight and evaluation and will increase CYCC's ability to respond quickly to local and state needs. This will also enhance CYCC's ability to measure program outcomes and report these results via the Prioritized Program Budgeting process.

 PROJECT B: Enhanced Web Site 
Project Description and Benefit: This project complements the Governor's strategic goal of best managed state in the nation. CYCC has assigned a staff member as the agency's webmaster to work in cooperation with DJJ technology office versus using an outside vendor. This capability to modify the web site internally has been accomplished, and continual enhancements are made throughout the year.

 PROJECT C: Web-based Grants Management System 
Project Description and Benefit: Moving to a web-based system will improve customer service to CYCC's clients by allowing them immediate access to their project's file. This will also allow for customers' electronically submitted data to be uploaded into CYCC's database, dramatically decreasing response time to customer requests. Further, this type of system will allow CYCC staff to effectively access grant project information remotely from any location in the State and provide immediate, up-to-date information to stakeholders upon request. This project has been delayed due to reductions in the agency's federal funds over the last few years. However, it has now been determined that a similar system exists in South Carolina, and CYCC will be able to replicate at no cost.

Agency Major IT Accomplishments 
 Enhancement of Grants Database 
With assistance from DJJ's technology office, CYCC was able to implement desired changes in the grants database during the spring of 2006. Trouble-shooting and further enhancements will continue throughout FY07. 
 Enhanced Web Site 
CYCC has a dedicated staff person who serves as the agency's web master. The DJJ technology office has worked cooperatively with her on making improvements to the site. This capability has allowed CYCC to maintain current information on the site and load "bulletin board" notices quickly to increase customer service. CYCC will continue to make "cosmetic" enhancements to the site. 
 Web-Based Grants Mgmt. System 
Discussions were held with CYCC's counterpart in South Carolina during FY05. It was determined that since they used Dept of Justice grant funding to create their grants system, CYCC (as GA's recipient) has authorization to replicate the system at no cost. CYCC staff and DJJ OTIS staff will visit the South Carolina office in July 2006 and plan the implementation timeframe and work hours projection, based on DJJ availability.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit is now requiring that briefs be filed both in hard copy and in pdf format, either on diskette or CD. Adobe Acrobat is being installed on designated PCs within the department. Fulton State Court and DeKalb State Court have implemented e-filing through the Lexis/Nexis program. This filing is being done over the Internet. Fulton Superior Court is also using Lexis/Nexis on some cases, but not all cases. The U.S. District Courts in Georgia have implemented a program using PACER (a program specific for these courts only). There is a filing fee for each filing using both the Lexis/Nexis program and PACER.

Agency IT Projects 
 PROJECT A: Maintain and enhance the Wide Area Network (WAN) 
Project Description and Benefit: The WAN provides for information sharing between the regional academies, Peace Officer Standards and Training, and other state agencies, including GaNet and GTA, who provides internet services to the Center. This network may be increased to other off-campus training sites. The Wan provides for on-line access to data and information sources by all network participants. The network enhances communications among its users, and facilitates research, and classroom presentations. The computer generated electronic transfers provide for more responsive capability, efficient, and effective operations.

 PROJECT B: Maintain and enhance the Local Area Network (LAN) 
Project Description and Benefit: The LAN provides for information sharing between the various entities of the Training Center; especially the three training divisions and the resident agencies. This network may be (expanded) upgraded in an effort to enhance on-line communications and minimize the need for hard copy documents. The LAN provides for an automated intranet system within the organizational structure of the Training Center; administrative, operations, and support with links to the resident agencies and the peripheral training sites. This system is connected with an ethernet switch, an assortment of ethernet hubs, and fiber optics are used to link these sites. All Training Center computers have access to the Intranet. The LAN intranet system provides for on-line communications among the 
 
351 
 
 Georgia Public Safety Training Center 
 
resident agencies and organizational entities that comprise the Training Center. There is significant opportunity to expand the existing intranet system. The Center's administrative and support functions may become virtually paperless with expanded use and application of this system. During FY2006 the Training Center implemented a plan that will beginning moving into a paperless environment.

 PROJECT C: Maintain current automated systems 
Project Description and Benefit: There are over 250 computers on the Training Center network that are used for administrative, operational, instructional, and support applications. Every activity and function of the Center is dependent upon computer application(s), either direct or indirect. This is no more evident than during a power outage when operations literally cease until "computers" are back on line. And, there has been a revolution in the classroom using computers to more effectively deliver training material, and present the information in a manner so that students learn more effectively. Some programs, e.g. judgmental firearms training are totally dependent upon computer technology. We continue to monitor and maintain the proficiency of existing hardware, software, and network capabilities through replacement, updates, and expansion. This includes the systems that support individual work stations and daily operations. The Training Center has a Dell PowerEdge running Novell 5.1 as the nucleus of the Center's main computer systems. Another PowerEdge is the network server for the Center's two Computer Labs. An HP Unix box houses the Oracle database applications. Theses databases applications include the; Georgia Fire Academy student records system, Training Center Student Registration System, Budget, On line class registration, and Dormitory. Other applications includes, anti-virus software, and RBase network databases including the Postage Inventory, Library Inventory, Warehouse Inventory, Vehicle Inventory, Cafeteria Inventory, Print Shop work orders and Memorial contributions systems. During FY2006 the Center installed a mail server to handle all agency emails and assist with security and privacy.

 PROJECT G: Judgmental Pistol Simulation System Upgrade 
Project Description and Benefit: Upgrade the JPS and distribute to regional academies. Several years ago the Center contracted with LightFolio, to produce a judgmental shooting simulator that was affordable and used off-the-shelf components. They did and these units have been in use all around the state. This software and hardware upgrade will allow the system to be completely portable, run off of a laptop, is backward compatible and provides better shot marking and playback capabilities. In addition the new software allows for branching of the videos which has never been available before.

 University System of Georgia / Board of Regents 
State law provides that the GTA annual statewide technology expenditures report is to include all state agencies, however, O.C.G.A 50-25-1 (b) (1) clarifies that the definition of `agency' shall not include the University System of Georgia (USG). Therefore, the Board of Regents and USG are excluded from the requirement of this report. Nevertheless, in a spirit of cooperation with the intent of the report, the University System Office of the Board of Regents is implementing a new data warehouse for the University System of Georgia. When fully functional, the data warehouse will provide information technology expenditures information along with a wide range of other financial information for the University System of Georgia.

Agency IT Projects 
 PROJECT A: Elections Information System - Current 
Project Description and Benefit: System allows counties to enter their supply orders, elections results, and political office information as required. Internal staff also use the system to track campaign disclosure filings, status of candidates and report generation. Once the disclosure reports are received, copies of the disclosure reports are scanned into Adobe and placed on our Internet site. Beginning in June 2001, candidates meeting certain requirements were able to file their disclosure reports electronically; however, e-filing system does not interface with mainframe and hard copy reports are still considered the original.

County registration offices will be able to print election lists, candidate lists, statistical reports, and other reports currently available through this mainframe. The high costs associated with DOAS maintaining this system will be reduced.

 PROJECT D: Business Registration System  System was taken offline May 8, 2006. 
Project Description and Benefit: The mainframe system provides "real time" access to current and historical information on entities filed with the Corporations Division. Data from the system is "dumped" daily to the corporate information web databases of both the Secretary of State and GeorgiaNet Authority. Thus, access to vast information is quick and efficient. The online system allows updating of entity information without intervention of Division personnel. The integrity of data is enhanced as customers enter information regarding their own particular entity, eliminating the need for mass data entry efforts by the Division. The online system enables information to be updated in less than 24 hours, the time period between entry by the customer and transference of the data to the mainframe system. "Paper" filings require a minimum of one week between filing and updating of information, and often result in a "wait" of several weeks. The online system is the conduit for nearly 300 electronic commerce transactions each day, transactions that would have required the processing of individual small denomination payments of $10 to $75.

All requests for certified copies are filled the same day requested, most within minutes. Prior to implementation of the system the turnaround was three to five days. More than 100 certification requests are processed each day. The system has contributed greatly to a 30 percent reduction in staff, and more than 100 percent increases in efficiency as measured by the time needed to deliver services.

 PROJECT O: Reengineer Voter Registration System - FY 2005 
Project Description and Benefit: The agency will explore a solution that will synchronize with other state data sources such are motor vehicles, death information, and felonious incarcerations. The system will need the capability to identify and eliminate duplicate registrations. The project would include the deployment of state of the art equipment to all counties. A component of the system would be the standardization of data in all counties for the purpose of redistricting and processing data against the National Change of Address databases. It is anticipated that the counties would benefit from a comprehensive voter registration system.

Project Description and Benefit: Automating the process will eliminate a great deal of staff time used in the cutting, posting and proofing of the various versions of the rules by having rules key a single time and forwarded electronically where appropriate. Further, electronic noticing and publishing will broaden public access while reducing the cost to the State for that access. And finally, automating the process will almost guarantee the existence of current rules on the Internet consistent with the Governor's visions of a technological Georgia.

 PROJECT R: IT On-line corporate filing system - FY 2006 
 
Project Description and Benefit: The online system eliminates the need to manually process registrations by lockbox and/or Division staff. Integrity of data is enhanced as individual customers verify their own work, as opposed to staff attempting to interpret handwritten submissions. Payment is received by the state immediately, versus a "lag time" of up to a month that can be required to process paper registrations during the peak registration season, which extends from January 1 to April 1 annually. Online filings can be certified from individual PCs, eliminating the need to retrieve, copy and attach a certificate to a paper filing. Online payments greatly reduce the number of "bad checks" received by the Division. Payments are small denomination ($15 or $25), an amount that is not cost effective to the state when processed manually. Approximately 90 seconds is needed to manually process an annual registration filing. New client server based COTS product implementation began July 2006 that will include this functionality

 PROJECT S: Document Imaging Program - Current 
Project Description and Benefit: This project has a number of benefits. Currently large volume files, especially those dealing with individual licensees, will be converted to a digital format. This will allow quicker review and analysis, speedier evaluation and investigation, with increased consumer protection by shrinking the time from initial application for licenses to license review and approval. Using digital images will allow the SOS to more conveniently distribute information from our records, especially in our Archives and library programs, to citizens, other agencies and private sector as applicable. Storage costs for our large volume files will be reduced as we gradually eliminated paper as the primary storage medium for current files and move to digital files. In July 2003, SOS created a new Central Imaging Center to centralize all agency document scanning functions to perform scanning operations to support divisions on Capitol Hill.

 PROJECT T: PeopleSoft Modules - FY 2005 
Project Description and Benefit: A State-wide solution is needed in that the use of PeopleSoft is State-mandated and non-PeopleSoft integratable systems would require redundant databases and keystrokes. Leave monitoring is a daily activity for management who, rather than having direct access to information for their staff, must rely on the Agency personnel office for information each time it is needed. And the implementation of a bar-code based PeopleSoft integratible system for asset tracking would significantly enhance our ability to record and track physical assets and would easily permit the discovery of missing items through techno-audit functionality.

Agency Major IT Accomplishments 
 Business Registration System (New) - Implemented May 8, 2006 
In May 2005, implemented new COTS client/server based application to handle the back office processing of the Corporations division. In addition to the processing and workflow enhancements, the application includes a sophisticated document imaging module. With more than 2.5 million records and images now available online, Georgians can easily and conveniently research and view the articles and application documents of most companies created after 1997. A new virtual "shopping cart" feature also allows customers to make a single payment for multiple transactions. These new online offerings further expand the Corporations Division's already substantial suite of ecommerce offerings and will result in substantial savings to Georgia taxpayers. An immediate savings of $300,000 per year will be achieved by removing the corporate database from the state's mainframe computer system and managing the data in-house. Implemented automatic email notification to Corporations applicants that the agency has received their application and when the application is acted upon . This application was developed internally by staff. Each night, we email all new corporate filers that submit a new filing for review. The email contains a link that allows the filer to track the status of their filing online. Once the file review is complete and approved, the filer is emailed again to let them know the action has been taken on their filing. A link is provided to our

verification site to confirm their filing status. This feature has been a huge hit and brought a commercial look and feel to our customers 
 IT On-line corporate filing system - FY 2006 
The Secretary of State's Corporations Division, the first in the nation to offer corporate entities the option of renewing registrations online, has once again enhanced its online services making e-commerce transactions even more convenient for the division's corporate customers. Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) can file initial business creation documents online and that same option will soon be available to all for-profit and nonprofit Georgia corporations. Georgia is one of the first states in the nation to offer this service to corporate customers. Customers who choose to file online can have their new LLC filing processed the day it is received. 
 Day to day maintenance and upgrades - Current 
Implemented new call centers for PLB and Corporations. The call centers at PLB and Corporations were out dated and not functioning properly. In September 2005, both divisions were upgraded to new ACD call centers. The new hardware and software provides web based reporting and monitoring of calls. Since going live with the systems, our average time to answer a call has dropped below a minute and our customer are being served much faster. The reporting capabilities of the new systems have been the driving force behind improved customer service. Managers can dynamically adjust resources as call volume fluctuates throughout the day or week. Internally implemented off site disaster recover/backup procedures through the purchase of additional Dell Hardware and MS software. In February, IT staff implemented a real off site disaster recovery/backup procedure to mitigate any potential data loss. Through the use of Microsoft's DPM product, we are currently backing up Atlanta data to Macon and Macon data to Atlanta, via our high speed MPLS connection. We were in desperate need of a backup solution that met the requirements of the Department of Audits for "off site". (greater than 30 miles) The new set up has been very successful with no data loss since go live in February. Successfully developed phase 1 of the inventory database for use by the Administration division. The web based application was developed internally by staff. This application will allow purchasing coordinators in each division the ability to track and manage their IT inventory. It will handle new purchases, relocated equipment and surplused equipment. 
 System Automation Project - Current and ongoing 
Internally developed new web based management reporting tools for PLB and SBR on the SOS intranet site. Management requested reporting tools that would measure user productivity. The IT staff took the ball and ran with it. We now have 20+ web based reports on our site that managers used to daily track user performance. Since posting these real time reports, productivity in these two divisions has noticeably increased.

Implemented automatic email notification to PLB applicants that the agency has received their application and when the license is acted upon. This application was developed internally by staff. Each night, we email all new applicants that submit a new application for review. The email contains a link that allows the applicant to track the status of their application online. The status tracking feature shows each step of the review process and the status of each item. Once the application review is complete, and a license is issued, the applicant is emailed again to let them know the action has been taken on their application. A link is provided to our verification site to confirm their licensure. This feature has been a huge hit and brought a commercial look and feel to our customers 
 Real time information access for field personnel - FY 2004 
Successfully completed setup of mcheck product for PLB. Mcheck will allow field investigators the ability to perform electronic investigations in the field that will synch up with License 2000. Go live in production is scheduled for August 2006. 
 SOS Web Site Development and Maintenance - Current 
Internally developed new HR intranet site for use by all staff. The new site provides a one stop shop for staff HR needs. Included in the new site are all policies and forms, contact information, news and events, training information, and benefit information. The response from employees for the new site has been very positive. 
 Uniform Electronic Voting System - Current 
Successful statewide implementation of new electronic pollbooks for use in each precinct on election day. The new tablet based pollbooks were used in each of the 3000+ polling locations throughout the state for the July 2006 primary election. Each pollbook contains the entire state VR database as well as each ballot combination for each county. By using the electronic pollbook, the check-in process is more efficient It also allows poll workers to direct voters who go to the wrong precinct to the correct one. A primary benefit of using the pollbooks is in the speed with which credit for voting can be uploaded to the VR mainframe. The credit for voting process was manual prior to this roll out and had to be performed at the local level. The new process is automated and run at the state level.

 Georgia Department of Technical & Adult Education 
Chapter 1 - Agency Mission, Vision, Goals, IT Projects & IT Accomplishments 
Agency Vision 
Our vision is of a dynamic system of technical education, adult education, and customized business and industry workforce training using industry-standard and emerging technologies and offering easy access to education and training for all Georgians. This system will be part of a seamless educational process in which students can easily transfer credits as they move among secondary schools, technical colleges, and colleges and universities in which all Georgians can readily access information and advanced educational resources. We envision a world-class educational system that utilizes leading edge technology and innovative design to supply a competitive workforce and quality communities, thus assuring Georgia's economic success in the global marketplace. The recognition this system will command throughout the state will make it the preferred educational option for that majority of adults whose career choices require qualifications beyond a high school diploma, for those companies that require customized training and retraining services, and for those seeking a lifetime of educational experiences. 
Agency Mission 
The mission of the Department of Technical and Adult Education is to contribute to the economic, educational, and community development of Georgia by providing quality technical education, adult literacy education, continuing education, and customized business and industry workforce training to the people of Georgia.

Agency IT Projects 
 PROJECT A: KMS (Knowledge Management System) 
Project Description and Benefit: This project addresses the DTAE central office's and the technical colleges' needs for useable information upon which to base decisions. Although this function is housed in the Office of Information Technology, Planning and Development, KMS provides internal information and reporting for all units within the agency. KMS makes the right information available to the right DTAE staff at the right time. A major data source is technical college student data collected through BANNER. Other data resources include emails, web pages, files, documents, reports, project plans, databases, spreadsheets, training manuals and programs, best practices, presentations, meeting minutes, conferences, and knowledge-based applications. In essence, KMS is the web-based communications and reporting interface for the agency's data systems. Currently, most KMS data are protected for internal use only; however, in the future, expanded components will be made available for external use and sharing to facilitate collaborations and interagency efforts. The KMS will be a major resource that will help support the colleges' institutional research functions.

 PROJECT B: Instructional Technology Acquisition and Allocation 
Project Description and Benefit: This project seeks to establish a demand-based cycle that enables DTAE units to acquire, reallocate, and/or replace instructional and instructional support technology. Technical colleges and other units conduct IT audits, develop long-range technology plans, and update the plans annually to address the need for additional and replacement technology based on expected enrollment increases and changes in programmatic needs. Each technical college obtains additional technology in relation to increased enrollment, increased demand for computer-based instruction, and increased need for

computer-based services. This project seeks to enable the technical colleges to maintain cutting-edge technology in their computer programs, especially those programs that prepare trainees for industry certifications in information technology. It seeks to enable economic development programs to provide Georgia's new, expanding, and existing businesses and industries with state-of-the-art technology training. This project also seeks to provide up-todate PCs that will enable adult literacy providers and GED testing centers to implement federally required scoring and reporting procedures. This project is part of DTAE's migration to Windows XP. However, budget shortages have delayed this project and limited additions to only the most critical needs and replacements to only failed equipment.

 PROJECT C: Connectivity Capacity Building (WAN) 
Project Description and Benefit: Each DTAE unit provides adequate bandwidth to meet local demand. Adequate transport capacity is essential for technical colleges and other local units to achieve technological parity and standardization in all services. Bandwidth demand is growing because more information from each college's student information system is being transmitted to the data center; because of the use of PeopleSoft for financial and personnel information, and because of the use of centralized Blackboard courseware. Technical college demand is also growing because of increased use of web-enabled instruction in the classroom. In the future, local WAN build-out will increase overall transport capacity and address "quality of service" to allocate bandwidth by demand. This project will address reliable WAN capacity and will include connectivity to new DTAE sites as well as agency-level development of quality of service policies and parameters. Included in this project is build out of our telecommunication infrastructure to include VoIP.

 PROJECT D: BANNER Upgrades, Utilization, and Training 
Project Description and Benefit: BANNER is DTAE's student information system application. This project will expand the utility of BANNER as the enterprise application for all customer information. This project focuses on four improvements: 1) Implementation of upgrades/new versions/new modules such as financial, CAPP, web registration, and credit card payment modules; 2) expansion and modifications of BANNER to a total enterprise 
 
470 
 
 Georgia Department of Technical & Adult Education 
 
student/customer/client information system that can meet the data collection and reporting needs of adult literacy service providers and economic development programs as well as the more traditional collegiate technical programs; 3) development of robust BANNER interfaces such as interfaces between BANNER and PeopleSoft and among BANNER and external agencies such as the Georgia Student Finance Commission and the Department of Labor (DOL); and 4) BANNER training at the expert and user levels. BANNER data will roll-up from each local unit to the DTAE data center, data will roll up from the data center to the DTAE data mart, and ultimately, to the statewide data warehouse for all education statistics. Additionally, this project helps each technical college to take ownership of its data and BANNER functions, thereby helping to spread an information culture throughout the entire agency.

 PROJECT E: GED Passport 
Project Description and Benefit: This project is to continue implementation of the nationally required, PASSPORT electronic GED scoring software to support the new version of the GED examination for high school equivalency credentialing. The software scores students' responses on five sections of the GED (the entire exam package, with the exception of the essay section). The new GED exam procedures, forms, hardware, and software requirements are being implemented at both the state office- and local GED testing centerlevels. After scoring the exams, PASSPORT generates individual score reports that are mailed to each examinee. It generates reports for use by the state office and the 55 testing centers including reports by county, geographic area, demographics, and other factors that facilitate performance evaluation and accountability. Additionally, PASSPORT interfaces with the Georgia Student Finance Commission and enables eligible GED examinees to receive $500 HOPE vouchers. An underlying requirement for the automated scoring is to interface and share data with the national GED testing service and national database.

evaluation of progress during participation in instruction, and evaluation of participant outcomes after they have exited instruction. Each state is purchasing or developing its own software to implement current NRS requirements* and to interface with required employment and education outcomes data from DOL and postsecondary education systems. This project will explore the feasibility of modification of the BANNER student information system to meet NRS requirements and to enable the Office of Adult Literacy to process data submitted by those grant recipients that do not have BANNER capabilities. This project begins the planning for a significant step toward a web-based enterprise system for DTAE student information that will overcome the long-standing challenge posed by the varying data management capabilities of adult literacy grant recipients.

 PROJECT G: Network Development 
Project Description and Benefit: Technical colleges must be fully networked to maximize internal communications and efficiency and offer greater access to information technology. DTAE is moving toward a network-based environment to make information more open, interactive, and accessible internally and externally. This project focuses on providing an adequate network infrastructure. It requires local web-based access and registration, LANs, and WAN connectivity to enable internal and external storage and distribution of technical education, adult literacy and GED training, and customized business and industry training. It addresses the need for additional capacity and replacements over the next few years and the need for enhanced logical and physical network design. Perimeter defense firewalls have been installed for all campuses and will continue to be implemented for new sites. Enhancement of local area networks will include upgrading to gigabit 10 network cores, upgrading firewalls for higher levels of encryption, using VLAN and layer 3 technologies, implementing internal firewalls to protect confidential data, and adding network interfaces to enable greater segregation of network traffic to separate student from administrative segments for improved security.

Agency Major IT Accomplishments 
 BANNER Upgrades, Utilization, and Training 
BANNER, DTAE's student information system, is continually upgraded and expanded to meet college needs and to keep abreast of federal regulatory changes. Training was offered on Web registration, Letter Generation, Population selection, and CAPP. Functional training on BANNER 6 was completed for all colleges. Also, all web data was encrypted to provide secure web services. 
 Network Development 
As technology continues to expand and become more specialized, Technical College IT staffs are challenged to provide advanced technical support and planning. In FY05, the Central Office support staff assisted in resolving technical issues and worked to design, plan, and implement complete network infrastructure refreshes to maximize throughput and scalability while positioning for upcoming security enhancements. DTAE security engineers provided classroom training for other State agencies in several specialized security fields, including firewalls, virtual private networks and intrusion detection. 
 Knowledge Management System (KMS) 
The KMS web site was redefined, redesigned, and rebuilt to better meet the reporting needs of the agency and 34 Technical Colleges. It has become a one-stop-shop for agency reporting that continues to grow and expand.
