Montgomery County Organizational Reform Commission which savings are not easily quantified or quantifiable. These services and efficiencies include, but are not limited to: hardware standardization, centralized acquisition, electronic software distribution and asset management. MCPS and Montgomery College are prime candidates for outsourcing of seat management. The CARS effort is looking at expansion of this program beyond the County government. We recommend that a fast-track study be conducted, after which seat management should be expanded to MCPS and the College. "Cloud Computing" On December 9, 2010, the federal government's Chief Information Officer detailed proposals for some of the most sweeping changes to hit federal computing since the 1996 Clinger Cohen Act created agency CIO jobs. The new 40-page strategy directs agency IT leaders to follow a "Cloud first" policy, in which they must evaluate the practicality of leasing access to web-based technology before buying new hardware or software. Here is where central leadership pays dividends. Each federal agency will be required to pick three "must-move" services within three months, transition one of those services to the Cloud within a year and shift the remaining two within 18 months. For Montgomery County to institute savings, it must dismantle the old method of installing new technology - which is to design overly ambitious systems that become antiquated - and instead embrace methods that modernize equipment quickly and cheaply. The strategy entails outsourcing IT to the "Cloud." Traditionally, computing services have been delivered through desktops or laptops operated by proprietary software. Cloud computing allows organizations to access software, services and data storage through powerful remote file servers. Given the growing number of file servers in County government and other agencies, we believe significant savings will be realized through the use of Cloud computing. Currently, there are more than 350 "industrial level" servers using full virtualization technology, for the County government alone. Cloud computing enables organizations to scale up or down to the level of needed service so that needed capacity can be optimized. Cloud computing relies on vendors with databases and appJications within the Internet "Cloud," rather than on locally run applications. Federal agencies are doing more of this outsourcing, with the most recent example being GSA's announcement that it will soon convert its e-mail services to Google mail. That move is expected to result in cost-savings of approximately 50%. State and local governments, including the District of Columbia and Los Angeles, are also following this trend. Recently, the U.S. Department of Agriculture moved to Cloud computing for its more than 100,000 employees. It appears that some experimentation is beginning in Montgomery County, with M-NCPPC now in negotiations with a vendor for such services. We strongly endorse this direction. After consultation with representatives of the federal agencies that have adopted Cloud computing, we urge a quick adoption of this technology for functions such as e-mail, calendar maintenance, and other basic desktop applications for all County agencies. - 53PDF Image | Montgomery County Organizational Reform
