A 4452 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Establishes Office of the State Chief Efficiency Officer and Efficiency Officer positions in each State Executive Branch department.

This bill creates a new Office of the State Chief Efficiency Officer within New Jersey's Department of the Treasury, appointed by the Governor with Senate approval. It also requires every state executive department to establish an Efficiency Officer position, while allowing counties and municipalities to create similar roles. The officers must ensure taxpayer funds are spent efficiently (e.g., on supplies, utilities, and operations), identify cost savings, and submit annual reports to the legislature detailing savings achieved. The State Chief Efficiency Officer will oversee all department-level officers and maintain a public webpage with these reports.
