Abstract
State government IT organizations have traditionally been quite decentralized, but several factors are currently moving them toward increased centralization.

Following a brief discussion of special governance issues in state governments, the current transformation underway for the IT organization in the state of Virginia is then presented, along with a discussion of key success factors.
