Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Maryland State Treasurer’s Office (STO) information technology (IT) division is responsible for daily traditional information technology operations including but not limited to help desk management, application development, communication services, software management cybersecurity and cloud services. Additionally, the IT division assists in the daily operations of the Banking Division by performing transmission of various types of payment transactions ranging from collecting revenue to expending funds to and from numerous sources such as the Comptroller’s Office and the State’s Contracted banks. Following the transactions, information is received from the State’s banks to be used for reconciliation of the State’s General Ledger as well as disbursed to various State agencies for accounting purposes. Currently, the banking processes are done through an IBM AS400 server. However, the office is in the midst of converting its operations from the server to a cloud-based technology, specifically, Microsoft Azure Commercial cloud running the Microsoft Dynamics 365 applications. The office has successfully implemented a CRM solution for gathering claims data for the Insurance Division and an F&O solution for the Budget and Accounting Division which handles vendor and intrastate payments, and has recently implemented the successful integration of claims payments between CRM and F&O. The final phase of the project is currently under development for full automation of Banking Services processes within our Treasury Management division. File transfers are being converted to a multi-file transfer system using a file transmission platform called GoAnywhere and the reconciliation work of Banking Services is expected to be done using the F&O module of Dynamics.
