Establishes Office of the State Chief Efficiency Officer and Efficiency Officer positions in each State Executive Branch department.
S 3688 creates the Office of the State Chief Efficiency Officer within the Department of the Treasury and requires each New Jersey state executive branch department to appoint an Efficiency Officer. The bill directs these officers to monitor spending on items like office supplies and utilities, identify cost savings across state agencies, and report annually on savings achieved. The State Chief Efficiency Officer will compile these reports, issue an annual report to the legislature, and maintain a public webpage with all findings. This bill directly affects all state executive departments and permits counties/municipalities to adopt similar roles, focusing on improving fiscal accountability through transparency.
