Agency 365
2008 Supplemental Budget Request
TECHNICAL CORRECTION:
Information Systems
Revolving Fund (PL-RF)
AGENCY RECOMMENDATION AND FISCAL SUMMARY
Washington State University requests $407,440 as a technical correction to
under-funding of information systems central service agency accounts. In response to State
Auditor requirements and federal government restrictions the state has made
changes to how it budgets for information systems. Washington State University
received an increase of $385,000 in the 2007-09
biennial maintenance level budget to cover these changes. WSU
has now received the first bills from DIS for the new charges, and
the costs for WSU are now estimated to have increased by $792,440. These
increases represent both rate changes and the imposition of new
rates for services (including some services that WSU does not use). WSU requests
a technical correction of the missing $407,440. Without
such a correction WSU would be unable to pay the revolving fund
charges or would need to make unrelated program reductions.

NARRATIVE JUSTIFICATION AND IMPACT STATEMENT
The Office of
Financial Management and Department of Information Services increased agency
billing amounts for three technology related services beginning July 2008. The
maintenance budget was increased by $327,000 for the biennium in the
OFM information technology adjustment budget line, whereas the biennial billing
amount for the new enterprise systems fee and
the roadmap savings is estimated at $501,364 for the biennium or a
$174,364 shortfall (based on July 2008 OFM billing).
The DIS telecommunications services billing is new beginning in fiscal
year 2008 and is estimated to equal $222,844 for the biennium. There
was no increase in WSU’s
central services agency budget line for this new charge.
The DIS policy regulation division budget line was increased by $58,000
for the biennium, but this increase will not fully cover the estimated $68,232
increased billing for planning and policy assessment charges by DIS in the
biennium (both DIS items based on DIS July 2008 billing and discussions with DIS
Finance Office). The total
request for all three of the technology billing charges is $407,000 for the
biennium.
