Information Technology Strategic Plan sample (New Mexico) for 2013.
Our executive agencies and the Judicial and legislative branches have all adopted technology to automate processes in the service
of our residents. With the establishment of the Department of Information Technology, the State of New Mexico is now in a
position to move beyond the “automate” stage of computer technology.
As I stated in our 2003 New Mexico Performance Review, Moving New Mexico Forward: “The State should consolidate information
technology organizations and services to coordinate efforts, eliminate duplication, and save tax dollars through common planning across state government.”
Through the Department of Information Technology Act and my Executive Order 2008‐11, Cabinet Secretary Marlin Mackey and the Department of Information Technology have been enabled to take the state through the “consolidate” stage of our use of computer technology.
The next stage of information technology for our executive agencies will be to “integrate” the data collected through the use of computer‐driven agency programs. Through the collaboration of state agencies, and the secure sharing of data as a State of New Mexico Enterprise asset, we can vastly improve our effective management of state government and its decision‐making
processes.
With an effective consolidation effort, our executive agencies, their cabinet secretaries and staff, and the agency chief information officers and IT leads and their staff will be able to turn their attention to providing the Governor’s Office and the State of New Mexico Legislators with integrated, timely and innovative uses of our technology to provide new insights into the needs of our citizens and solutions that will improve their lives, improve education and our state’s economy.
This State of New Mexico Information Technology Strategic Plan points us to these “consolidate” and “integrate” stages.
