Intro
Minnesotans expect modern, digital applications that can provide access to services at any time, from any place, and in an equitable and secure manner. In 2023, the Minnesota Legislature provided $40 million of funding over four years for the Technology Modernization Fund (TMF). The TMF allows Minnesota IT Services to fund projects and efforts that modernize, secure, and improve the customer experience of executive branch technology systems. Read descriptions of the approved projects below. The Modernization Steering Team recommends and monitors proposals for the Technology Modernization Fund. The team consists of leaders from MNIT and agency partners.
TMF Funds will be for efforts that:
- Improve customer experience
- Create or improve digital services
- Address a security risk
- Modernize a business process
- Improve resiliency, operational efficiency, and/or risk reduction
- Align to the One Minnesota Plan
- Move to a shared or market-based technology solution
- Leverage AI or automation
Projects
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) Remediation Division will implement two new systems. One system, integrated into an enterprise data platform, will track sampling, while the other will manage contractor tracking, sample collection, scheduling, and future tasks. The goal is to share results by geographic area to inform communities about the safety of their private drinking wells. This will allow all interested parties to search for wells and addresses contacted for samples, including their responses and results. Consequently, the project will speed up and improve the identification of wells at risk.
