Information Resources Management Act

Texas · GV · §§ 2054.001 to 2054.713 · 233 sections

Overview

The Information Resources Management Act governs how Texas state agencies acquire, manage, and secure their information technology and data resources, and it establishes a state department, headed by an executive director serving as chief information officer, to administer that function. The act sets out the department's governing board — its composition, terms, training, compensation, conflict-of-interest rules, removal and vacancy procedures, and meeting requirements — along with staffing provisions covering merit pay, career advancement, and equal employment opportunity. It also creates a chief data officer and a set of advisory committees on data management, information security, and customer concerns, and it addresses department finances through administrative fees, alongside complaint handling, internal audit oversight, and exceptions for state lottery operations and public junior colleges.
