Article 8 – Project Initiation and Approval

Revised October 28, 2025

SAMState Administrative Manual Section 4902.1 lists the criteria used to determine if a project is considered reportable. Reportable projects require completion of a New Reportable Project Form. This form is included in Section B of the IMAPInformation Management Annual Plan and provides OITOffice of Information Technology with information on the proposed project. OITOffice of Information Technology uses this information to determine whether approval authority for the project shall be delegated to CDC or if OITOffice of Information Technology shall retain the approval authority.
All proposed projects that do not meet the criteria in SAMState Administrative Manual Section 4902.1 are considered non-reportable projects. The costs of agency development or new acquisition projects, whether reportable or not, shall be included in the Agency Information Technology Costs spreadsheet included in Part C of the IMAPInformation Management Annual Plan.
