Open Government
From the Secretary
Our commitment to you is to provide the highest level of customer service, for the best value, in an open, transparent setting. We know that you have an interest in the way we do business. We applaud Governor Crist for his leadership calling on state government to make certain the public stay informed about the work we do at the Department of Management Services. This Web page outlines the many ways you can contact us to request public records or to learn more about us as an agency.
We welcome your interest and look forward to serving you,

Linda H. South, Secretary

Legislative Budget Request – To plan for the next fiscal year, each agency submits a proposed budget to the Florida State Legislature. State legislators use these requests to draft and approve a budget each year (in fact, it’s the only bill they are required by law to approve each session).
