Job Description
Job Description
Job : System Analyst.
Duration: 18 months
Loaction: Tallahassee, FL, 32399 (on Site)
Background: As a result of the Department's efforts to re-engineer and modernize core financial systems, there has been over 1,500 computing assets identified as performing some level of financial planning, analysis, and management functionality that are impacted by the State of Florida's accounting system. The Florida Planning, Accounting, and Ledger Management (PALM) project is a multiyear endeavor to replace the State of Florida's accounting and cash management systems with a modern financial management solution. The Florida PALM Project is targeted to replace Central, Payroll, and Departmental FLAIR functionality, with go-live scheduled for January 6, 2026.
The 1,500 computing assets are comprised of interfaces, enterprise applications, databases, automated processes, and reporting programs within Depatment that will require remediation due to:
- Adoption of the Florida PALM Standardized Business Process Model.
- Transition to the Florida PALM Chart of Accounts values.
- Replacement of Central, Payroll and Departmental FLAIR functionality.
- Redevelopment of agency incoming and outgoing interfaces to the statewide accounting system.
- Implementation of Information Warehouse data to support agency specific reporting requirements.
The computing asset modifications to complete the Department's PALM System Transition (FPST) will take place over the course of two years in alignment with the Florida PALM Project scheduled timeline.
Included in the inventory of computing assets that must be transitioned to the Florida PALM solution are local computing applications and a reporting infrastructure maintained by the Office of Work Program and Budget (OWPB) and the Office of Comptroller (OOC) Systems Support Section to address core functional needs and to facilitate complex reconciliations for the management of budget and processing of actual financial results. OOC specifically manages over 100 interfaces to/from the Department of Financial Services (DFS) Florida Accounting Information Resource (FLAIR) system. As part of the Florida PALM System Transition (FPST) Project, impacts to the OOC computing assets must be determined and the applications must be remediated to interface with the Florida PALM system solution. In addition, computing assets must be analyzed to determine if there are any that need decommissioning. To allow for the resolution of the OWPB and OOC impacted computing assets, we are requesting a systems analyst position for the analysis and remediation efforts to transition to Florida PALM. The position's concentration will be the review of Florida PALM interface offerings, the analysis and remediation of impacted computing assets, and validation of modified computing assets during Florida PALM cycle testing.
