This amendment provides the Virginia Information Technologies Agency (VITA) an additional 6 positions in fiscal year 2015 and 7 positions in fiscal year 2016. As usage of information technology services by state agencies continues to increase, VITA requires additional staff to maintain existing service levels for procurement and other services while also preparing for the expiration of the agency's contract with Northrop Grumman. These positions will support state agency needs, secure the Commonwealth's data, oversee IT projects and procurements, and ensure continuity of key services.
