Relating to: an enterprise-wide data and efficiency study. (FE)

SB 941 creates a joint legislative committee to conduct a study on how state agencies share data and manage information systems. The committee will hire an independent firm to assess current practices, identify barriers to efficient data sharing, review best practices from other states, and recommend improvements like standardized systems or a dedicated data office. All state agencies must cooperate with this study, which will conclude with a report by December 31, 2026, including specific recommendations for policy or funding changes. This bill directly affects all state agencies that handle data, aiming to improve efficiency through better data management. The study itself is procedural and does not enact new laws.
