New CIO introduced; board told CAMS changeover remains on budget
Summary
The agency introduced its new chief information officer and staff said remaining CAMS transition work is covered within the approved budget.
John Camp Webb was introduced April 16 as the California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board’s new chief information officer. Webb told the board he started Monday and is "still learning all the systems and our goals and objectives." Board members welcomed him and thanked interim IT leaders for the selection process.
Separately, Chief Administrative Officer Bobby Robert Silva told the board that the agency has budgeted to cover remaining CAMS (case management) transition work and noted an earlier increase in Salesforce costs that had been previously discussed with the board. Silva said major CAMS changeover items were prioritized and the agency is now completing smaller "mop up" tasks with available funds.
No technical details, timelines for specific CAMS fixes or contingency amounts were provided during the meeting; board members asked for continued updates as the agency finishes remaining transition work.
