Board approves final phase payment for state debt‑collection system; AG official says migration on track

Eileen Heizer, chief financial officer for the Attorney General's Office, told the controlling board the current request is a waiver of competitive selection tied to the final phases of a debt‑collection system originally competitively procured in 2019 and implemented in phases. She said the project was always planned in phases and the current request completes the remaining migration work for Debt Manager; she noted the legacy system, referred to as "Cubs," is end‑of‑life on Dec. 31 and the final transfers and user‑acceptance testing are underway.
