implemented pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 216, Florida Statutes.

proposal. At a minimum the report shall include the following elements:
1. The scope of work to be undertaken; the potential or selected public

organizational name, location, and programmatic or activity
identification of the governmental units selected for outsourcing;
and the projected time frame for its completion.

are within budgeted amounts, are consistent with the plan and scope
of work, and adhere to specific performance standards.
4. Assurance of the proven functionality of the ultimate product or
service and its reliable and consistent operation in a real time
operating environment.
5. A plan for the provision of timely and accurate project and
operational performance reports useful for management decision
making, for auditing of project expenditures and results, and for
adherence to generally accepted accounting and auditing principles
in information systems development, internal control, and security.
6. The identification of how outsourced human resource functions and
activities will be coordinated with those which are operated by
state agencies.
7. An outplacement plan for displaced state employees to provide them,
at a minimum, with the right of first employment interview by any
contract vendor.
8. The comparison of costs to other human resource alternatives, the
direct and indirect costs of making no changes and upgrading
existing systems, and the comparative cost of consolidation and
centralization of human resource functions in one or more state
service centers.
9. Provision of a contingency plan and the cost of assuming the
operations of a contract vendor in the event of subsequent contract
termination.
10. The method of assuring the technical interface of proposed human
resource information with the state's existing information systems.
The Department shall provide a schedule of phased implementation and
schedule of cash transfer to an appropriate trust fund. Subject to the
approval of the Legislative Budget Commission, positions, salary rate,
and budget authority not required due to implementation of the
outsourcing plan shall be placed in reserve by the Executive Office of
the Governor consistent with s. 216.181, F.S. The Executive Office of
the Governor may approve transfer and release of funds from the State
Personnel System Trust Fund within Specific Appropriations 2654 through
2661 for initial implementation costs subject to repayment from funds
transferred from other agencies as functions are outsourced pursuant to
the memoranda of agreement.
Line item amendments are accepted as part of the amendatory process. However, due to the necessity of using computerized systems this may entail a different placement
within a budget entity or the renumbering of the specific appropriation items. |
