Abstract | The extent to which state agencies are implementing information systems and analytical methods for budget review are examined. Focus is on 17 states: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Mississippi, Nebraska, New York, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin. Trends in budget information to state agencies and the bases for current concerns are reviewed. Higher education budget information categories are defined and a typology of information uses is presented. An overview is given of the trends in information and analysis activities typifying each of the state budget agencies, and the principal styles of budget review used in the states are also described. The informational content of state budget documents is delineated, followed by a discussion of the technical and political consequences of using information and analysis systems. The report concludes with a discussion of several major considerations to be weighed in setting up state-level information and analysis systems. (LBH) |
