494 Technology and includes the facilities formerly known as the
495 Northwood Shared Resource Center and the Southwood Shared
496 Resource Center.
497 (1) INTENT.—The Legislature finds that the most efficient
498 and effective means of providing quality utility data processing
499 services to state agencies requires that computing resources be
500 concentrated in quality facilities that provide the proper
501 security, disaster recovery, infrastructure, and staff resources
502 to ensure that the state’s data is maintained reliably and
503 safely, and is recoverable in the event of a disaster.
504 Efficiencies resulting from such consolidation include the
505 increased ability to leverage technological expertise and
506 hardware and software capabilities; increased savings through
507 consolidated purchasing decisions; and the enhanced ability to
508 deploy technology improvements and implement new policies
509 consistently throughout the consolidated organization. Unless
510 otherwise exempt by law, it is the intent of the Legislature
511 that all agency data centers and computing facilities be
512 consolidated into the state a primary data center by 2019.
513 (2) STATE DATA CENTER DUTIES.—The state data center shall:
514 (a) Offer, develop, and support the services and
515 applications as provided in the service-level agreements
516 executed with its customer entities.
517 (b) Maintain the performance of the state data center,
518 which includes ensuring proper data backup, data backup
519 recovery, a disaster recovery plan, appropriate security, power,

526 services. If a customer entity fails to execute an agreement
527 within 60 days after the commencement of a service, the state
528 data center may cease service. A service level agreement may not
529 have a term exceeding 3 years and at a minimum must:
530 1. Identify the parties and their roles, duties, and
531 responsibilities under the agreement.
532 2. State the duration of the contractual term and specify
533 the conditions for renewal.

540 service, and the metrics and processes by which the business
541 standards for each service are to be objectively measured and
542 reported.
543 6. Provide a timely billing methodology for recovering the
544 cost of services provided to the customer entity pursuant to s.
545 215.422.

547 agreement based on changes in the type, level, and cost of a
548 service.
549 8. Provide that a service level agreement may be terminated
550 by either party for cause only after giving the other party and
551 the Agency for State Technology notice in writing of the cause
552 for termination and an opportunity for the other party to
553 resolve the identified cause within a reasonable period.

562 1. On the date of each consolidation specified in this
563 section, the General Appropriations Act, or the Laws of Florida,
564 each state agency shall relinquish all administrative rights to
565 such resources and equipment. State agencies required to comply

652 exceeded costs, that rebates be applied to offset charges to
653 those customer entities that have subsidized the costs of other
654 customer entities, and that such rebates may be in the form of
655 credits against future billings.
656 6. Requiring that all service-level agreements have a
657 contract term of up to 3 years, but may include an option to
