The Honorable, The Legislature:
Attached please find the Department of Administration's (DOA) Contractual Services Purchasing Report for Fiscal Year 2010 (FY10) pursuant to §
16.705(8), Wis. Stats. I am pleased to announce positive results that benefit state taxpayers.
The State of Wisconsin reduced contracting costs again in FY10. Overall contracting decreased from $437.3 million in Fiscal Year 2009 to $417.2 million in FY10. These results represent a one-year reduction of more than $20 million or 4.8%, and continue a longer term downward trend in state contracting.
State agencies successfully renegotiated service contracts and/or reduced service requirements to achieve savings. In addition, DOA's State Bureau of Procurement initiated new processes requiring all enterprise-wide contracts to undergo mandatory renegotiations with each contractor to lower pricing at each renewal term.
This report also includes information on cost-benefit analyses produced by state agencies and campuses during FY10. As a result of cost-benefit legislation signed by Governor Doyle in January 2006, Wisconsin Act 89 requires state agencies and campuses to conduct a cost-benefit analysis prior to any proposed contractual service procurement over $25,000. A summary of the 358 cost-benefit analyses produced during FY10 is included in this report.
As directed by the Governor's
2009 Act 28 veto message, the Department of Administration's Division of Legal Services and State Bureau of Procurement, along with the Office of State Employment Relations, have established a quarterly process to review and monitor contracting activity. This effort is to ensure that contractor positions do not replace state workers who had been laid off or furloughed.
Our Fiscal Year 2010 results are consistent with Governor Doyle's directives to make government run more resourcefully. State government will continue to pursue way to reduce costs, eliminate inefficiencies, and create sustainable sources of savings for state and local governments.
If you have questions about this report, please contact Jim Langdon, Acting Administrator, DOA Division of Enterprise Operations, at 261-6357.
Sincerely,
daniel j. schoof
Secretary
Referred to joint committee on Finance.
