Chief Information Officer Council (CIOC)
Overview
The Chief Information Officer Council (CIO Council), originally formed in 2002, is comprised of state and local government Chief Information Officers and Information Technology (IT) leaders.  The CIO Council provides leadership and a forum for all agencies to collaborate in the management of information resources across state government. The CIO Council advises the State Chief Information Officer (State CIO) and state business leaders on: 
  • Strategic Information Resource Management (IRM) Planning
  • Statewide IRM policies
  • Statewide technical architecture and standards
  • Planning and implementation of statewide IT initiatives
This successful governance group has changed the way information technology is developed and implemented throughout Oregon state government.

The CIO Project Report summarizes various initiatives supported by the CIO Management Council and CIO’s.   In addition to the summary report, there is supporting charter information which populates the summary report.  This report is a work in progress and will continue to be developed.  If you have any questions please contact EISPD.

EIRMS Tactical Planning
 
The 2007 -11 Enterprise IRM Strategy directs the State Chief Information Officer (CIO) to ensure that EIRMS deliverables are defined and that milestone dates for completion of those deliverables are set throughout the four-year planning horizon.   
 
In collaboration with the CIOC, DAS Enterprise Information Strategy and Policy Division (EISPD) staff worked to identify an initial set of deliverables and milestones and create a tactical planning document.   
 
On January 8, 2008, the CIOC voted to endorse V1.0 of the EIRMS Tactical Plan with the understanding that the plan and associated documents would be forwarded to the Administrative Business Services Director's (ABSD) group for consideration and concurrence.
 
The State CIO presented V1.0 of the EIRMS Tactical Plan to the ABSD group on January 22 and February 26, 2008.  The ABSD endorsed V1.0 at its February 26, 2008 meeting. 
 
The more detailed EIRMS Tactical Plan V1.0 (.xls) is attached as a three-tab spreadsheet containing the following appendices:
 
Note:  We recommend this document be printed in landscape orientation on 11X17 paper.
  • Appendix A - Tactical Plan V1.0 – Active Tasks/Initiatives -The tasks/initiatives that are actively underway or planned to implement the approved EIRMS (i.e., actions already underway or planned, budget set, decisions made and commitments made/“above the line”)
  • Appendix B - Completed Tasks/Initiatives– Actions/deliverables that have been completed
  • Appendix C - Pended Tasks/Initiatives– Proposed actions that are not ready for initiation (for a variety of reasons) and so have been moved to a separate holding list for current and future consideration (“below the line” / to be reconsidered between January and June 2008)
 
Appendix D (.pdf) provides a summary of CIO Council input leading to the CIOC endorsement of the EIRMS Tactical Plan V1.0.
