- 11. Service Offerings Portal Over the next year, DTS expects to implement a number of changes to the State portal. Some of these changes are addressed below. Implement Google as Portal’s Search Engine. • As a result of the search engine evaluation, DTS will replace the current search engine with Google. Implement a New Webpage Design. • Based on the recommendations by the usability consultant and the State’s new accessibility require- ments for department websites, DTS will imple- ment a new webpage design for the portal. Implement Webmasters Guide. • To assist departments’ webmasters in making similar changes to department websites, DTS has acquired a consultant to develop a website of design templates and guidelines for webmasters. The website will be the departments’ online guide for the new webpage design, accessibility and usability policies and guidelines, and linkages to other webmaster resources. Incorporate Payment Engine Requirements in Payment Acceptance Procurement. • The DGS is leading a statewide effort to procure payment acceptance services. Specifically, this effort in- volves acquiring payment acceptance services from a private entity. The services would include process- ing payments received through online systems and over the telephone. Since DGS’ efforts include online systems, the payment engine business requirements produced by DTS will be incorporated into DGS’ effort. Develop Feasibility Study Report (FSR) for Increases in Portal Functions. • As noted above, the State’s current portal may not include all of the functions that departments need to implement online systems. DTS expects to complete a FSR describing any additional portal functions needed to meet department requirements for online systems. Award Contract for Private Industry Partner to Assist in Developing Online Systems. • Some departments are interested in implementing online systems. In some circumstances, departments may not have all of the skills needed to develop these types of systems. The State expects to award a contract sometime in 2007 that departments can use to gain assistance in developing online systems. www.dts.ca.gov | 7

- 15. Roles and Responsibilities DTS has extensive experience in hosting websites and web applications, and can provide our customers with detailed project cost estimates and project plans for implementation. Internet Services technical support staff will provide the best possible solution to meet our customers’ needs. Once a solution is identified by our staff and approved by the customer, DTS sets up and configures web services to standards established by DTS. DTS provides maintenance and support of web services once your site is up and running. Support and maintenance includes IIS patch installation and maintenance of DTS standard web services configuration. Maintenance and support agreements become void if the standard configuration of web software has been modified without prior consent of DTS Internet Services Section. New Client to DTS As a new client, your organization will be assigned a Customer Relations Representative who will assist you in completing the steps that are necessary to begin processing. This includes: • Executing either an Interagency Agreement or Agreement for Non-State Customers prior to requesting services or proposals. • Submitting a Request for Service for necessary services or cost proposals for equipment, software and network con- nectivity. Your Customer Representative will also provide ongoing support to assist your organization in meeting its business objectives in a cost-effective manner. Customer Responsibilities The customer is responsible for providing a detailed project document that outlines the purpose, objectives, and business requirements of the project. The purpose of the project document is to obtain the information necessary to determine an appropriate solution. In addition, depending upon the complexity of the hosting requirements, the customer may be required to provide additional design and architectural documentation. The additional design and architectural documentation will be at the discretion of the Internet Services Section. If the Internet Services Section determines that there is a need for additional information, the Internet Services Section will provide an outline for these requirements. Once the project document is approved by the Internet Services Manager, the document will then be given to the designated DTS Customer Representative indicating the services, scope of work and estimated project costs agreed with the customer. Once the Customer Representative reviews and discusses the draft service request with the customer, the customer submits an official service request to the designated DTS Customer Representative to initiate the agreed upon work. www.dts.ca.gov | 11
- 16. Roles and Responsibilities Any modifications, additions, or changes will be initiated through an amended Service Request initiated by the DTS Customer Representative. The customer notifies the designated DTS Customer Representative of the requested amended Service Request and the Internet Services Manager provides a draft document that specifies the amended Service Request, and the costs associated with the request. Once the customer reviews and approves the amended Service Request, the DTS Customer Representative updates the official service request to reflect the amendment. The customer is responsible for the support and maintenance of all web applications that are not under the maintenance and support of Internet Services. In addition, all content and data is the responsibility of the customer.

Main Contact The customer is responsible for having a designated person to submit authorized requests to DTS Internet Content Support Staff. This person will be in charge of approving and sending requests to DTS Internet Content Support Staff and reviewing information on test and production. Exception: In cases where special circumstances require the customer to appoint more than one contact, a main person will still be assigned and kept informed of all requests sent to DTS Internet Services Staff. Each customer will have one primary and one backup contact at DTS Internet Content Support Staff. Submitting Requests via Email Send all requests via email to the designated webmaster address - i.e., “webmaster@dts.ca.gov”, that has been assigned to you specifically for this purpose and not to any individual person.
