PROJECT ABSTRACT (PROVIDE A BRIEF DESCRIPTION AND PURPOSE FOR THIS PROJECT)
The Office of the State Engineer and Interstate Stream Commission, collectively, “the Agency,” are responsible for actively managing the water resources of New Mexico. The Agency will develop a plan for modernizing the business applications that support the Litigation and Adjudication Program (LAP). The first phase of the project will involve developing a plan or roadmap for system modernization. The plan will be based on a current assessment of legacy systems and business processes, an articulation of future needs and an evaluation of modernization approaches and platforms. The historic drought that the State of New Mexico is experiencing exacerbates the need for the Agency to modernize information systems to support evolving business needs and challenges.
