California Information Technology Annual Report 2016 has been posted to CDT's website. The document summarizes the department's goals and achievements, metrics and statistics, and program objectives and philosophy within key areas such as cybersecurity, innovation, IT project management and delivery, and procurement.
You can download it from the CDT website here (PDF download).
The report is a good primer for anyone who wants or needs overview of the many projects and programs the department is involved in. And as someone who has a good grasp of what CDT does, I still learned things by reading the report.
The presentation of key metrics is attention-grabbing. I think two infographics in particular are interesting, among others.
CDT says 69 percent of IT projects were completed on schedule in 2016. That number is somewhat higher than I would have guessed, given how IT projects are sometimes criticized in the public eye.
This is a good illustration of why the California Department of Technology is redoubling its efforts of cybersecurity preparedness and response.
The report is worth a read.
