Montgomery County Organizational Reform Commission While the ORC is aware that the County government's Department of Technology Services has articulated, published and encouraged a Cloud strategy and marketed a "private Cloud" environment, we do not believe savings can be fully realized unless the department moves to nearly a 100% migration. Tentative steps will not gamer savings. Data Center Consolidation By 2015, the federal sector plans to shrink the number of its data centers by about 40%, winding down approximately 800 ofthe government's 2,100 or so costly and environmentally unfriendly server farms. The issue of data center consolidation, already under study by the CIOs in County agencies, needs to move at a more rapid pace and could be implemented faster and cheaper through an outsourcing contract. Contracting out this function across all agencies will speed the process ofimplementation accomplished through tightly written service level agreements. In the absence of a single, central CIO, we recommend the County enlist the services of a private contractor to examine the work flows and requirements of all agencies and provide a cost schedule for consolidation. County agencies can then focus on their core mission, while letting outside vendors manage their IT services. Thin Client Computing While not a contracting or privatizing issue, another IT-related cost-saving innovation is "thin client computing," where the machine that would sit on the desk of the more than 30,000 employees of County agencies would have limited local storage capacity. Instead, they would rely on a central machine maintained by a vendor for access, execution and storage of tasks. A successful pilot has been implemented by the Housing Opportunities Commission and supported by Montgomery County government's Department of Technology Services, with excellent results. A switch to thin client computing would save dollars - the hardware and software costs are a fraction of regular PC prices and provide a more secure IT environment, since all the security measures would be centrally administered. In addition, thin client units help to reduce energy costs since they have no moving motor parts, which are associated with hard disks. The ORC proposes that the operational benefits gained from a robust implementation of thin client computing be adopted by County government and that, based on the results of the recent "technical barrier" study, it then be considered for expansion to the other agencies. Department of Liquor Control Issue: Should the County privatize Department of Liquor Control (DLC) operations or seek to increase DLC profits by contracting some operations? - 54­
