HB2136 is a bill that proposes to continue the Arizona Department of Administration (ADOA) until July 1, 2028, and repeals it on January 1, 2029. The ADOA, established in 1972, provides centralized administrative services for the State of Arizona, including insurance coverage for state employees and retirees, IT services, risk management, management of the State Personnel System, statewide accounting, and procurement authority. The bill also includes a purpose statement, confirming the continuation of the ADOA to provide services in areas such as automation, finance, personnel administration, public buildings maintenance, surplus property, risk management, and school facilities.

The bill repeals section 41-3024.14 of the Arizona Revised Statutes and adds section 41-3028.04, with the changes applying retroactively from July 1, 2024. The Senate Government Committee of Reference recommended a two-year continuation until July 1, 2026, while the House Government Committee of Reference recommended a four-year continuation until July 1, 2028. The bill has no anticipated fiscal impact on the state General Fund and becomes effective on the general effective date, with retroactive provisions as noted.
