Summary

Existing law authorizes the Department of Motor Vehicles to establish contracts for electronic programs that allow qualified private industry partners to join the department in providing services that include processing and payment programs for vehicle registration and titling transactions, and services related to reporting vehicle sales and producing temporary license plates, as specified. Existing law generally requires state agencies, as defined, as required by the Director of Technology, to cooperate with the Department of Technology in the development of an annual information technology strategic plan that guides the acquisition, management, and use of information technology. This bill would enact the Modernizing Government Technology Act of 2018, which would require the department to, on or before January 1, 2020, in consultation with the Department of Technology, establish modernization goals that will achieve specified objectives. The bill would require those goals to include, but not be limited to, goals for the modernization of the department's information technology system and for usage of technologies that will improve the efficiency of the department. The bill would require the department, upon establishing those goals, to create an implementation and cost assessment plan for achieving them, and, on or before January 1, 2020, post that plan on the department's Internet Web site and provide the plan to the Legislature.
