The Information Technology (IT) strategy provides technology products, services, and support to all DADS divisions to further their efforts in achieving the DADS Mission. This
responsibility extends to establishing, managing, and monitoring agreements for IT products, services, and/or support supplied by external organizations. Services include
application development and support, desktop and LAN support and troubleshooting, coordination of cabling and hardware repair, and liaison with external automation services
providers (such as mainframe and mid-tier data center processing and telecommunications services). These services are distributed in a network-computing environment that spans
DADS offices statewide. Included are staff costs; professional services and contracted staff costs; network data circuits, mainframe, mid-tier, and network equipment costs;
software licenses; and computer equipment maintenance related to the support of DADS programs. The application systems developed, deployed, and supported under this
strategy cover financial systems, including revenue systems; consumer information systems; facility management systems; and decision support systems. Functions performed
include project management, software applications development, and documentation.
Statutory Authority. Human Resources Code, Chapter 161.
Factors which drive demands on information resources are numerous and varied. Both internal and external entities wish to enhance information systems to provide better
information about the effectiveness of client care programs, workforce, finances, and the physical facilities. The pace of technology change will remain a challenge requiring
resources to ensure that systems remain viable. As technology becomes more sophisticated, the staffing and training demands on technical support employees increases
correspondingly. New requirements for increased public access to electronic state data means an increase in tasks and responsibilities. DADS will actively investigate information
technology alternatives to traditional ways of doing business, which include video-conferencing, telemedicine, and e-government.
The method of finance (State/Federal) for this strategy is based on an annually submitted cost allocation plan developed for DADS in conjunction with HHSC. The federal
participation shares could be subject to change pending approval by the federal partners.
The following exceptional item will impact this strategy: Budget – Maintain FY09 Service Levels.
