Studying a Single Set of Books for Texas

Welcome to the Texas Enterprise Resource Planning Web site. The site is designed as a collaborative tool for Texas state agencies and institutions of higher education to work on exploring Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) for the state, an effort called for by House Bill 3106 passed by the 80th Texas Legislature.

The state's ERP study is led by the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts and encompasses other initiatives to explore ways to integrate data and processes into more cohesive and standardized systems for the highest levels of efficiency. ERP, for Texas state government, means and includes the administration of state agency's and institutions of higher education's general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, budgeting, inventory, asset management, billing, payroll, projects, grants, human resources and procurement.

In essence, ERP is about a single set of books, which would provide many benefits to the state, including:

  • One destination for real-time reliable information.
  • A "single source of truth" eliminating conflicting data.
  • Better tracking and standardization of financial information.

Visit often to read about the issues under discussion on this topic through the work of the Texas ERP Advisory Council, the CFO/CIO Committee and the ERP Workgroups.
