The bill amends the Information Technology Consolidation and Coordination Act by expanding definitions related to state agencies and information technology. Specifically, it clarifies the definitions of "appropriated state agency," "nonappropriated state agency," and "state agency," while also detailing what constitutes "information technology assets" and "information technology positions." Notably, the bill adds several entities, including the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation and the Office of the Attorney General, to the list of exclusions from the definition of state agency.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new section that allows state agencies to hire information technology personnel to develop and implement their technology strategies, contingent upon entering a memorandum of understanding with the Chief Information Officer. This memorandum must outline the specific positions, qualifications, and compliance with established standards for data integrity and security. The Chief Information Officer is granted the authority to audit compliance with these agreements. The bill also declares an emergency, allowing it to take effect immediately upon passage.
