H 458 Vermont House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An act relating to the Agency of Digital Services

H 458 requires Vermont's Agency of Digital Services to increase transparency around state IT projects. It mandates detailed annual reports to the legislature and a publicly accessible website inventory showing the status of all active projects costing $500,000 or more. The inventory must update monthly and include project scope, budget, timeline, and whether they're on track. Independent reviews are also required for new projects exceeding $1 million in cost. The bill directly affects the Agency of Digital Services and the public, who can track project progress through the new reporting system.
