2740-218 Legacy System Stabilization (LSS)

The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) proposes to restructure the Front End Applications Sustainability effort from migrating only the Vehicle Registration, Occupational Licensing and Cashiering front-end application to a more sustainable technology platform; to now the Legacy System Stabilization effort that will stabilize all the Department’s legacy applications, systems, and hardware to reduce the risk of catastrophic failures. This will enable the Department to address external mandates and maintain DMV service delivery to Californians, while preparing for the DMV Modernization effort.

Project Overall Health Comments
Green
The LSS Project oversees the DMV’s legacy systems’ maintenance, operations, and stabilization while the DMV migrates its business functions and data to the new Digital Experience Platform (DXP). A governance process is in place, and weekly sponsor and steering committee meetings include schedule, cost, and escalation items. After carefully considering and reviewing the LSS Project’s scope, historical progress, and the SPR submitted in June 2023, the CDT IPO has downgraded this project’s complexity to ”Low.” As such, CDT IPO’s active oversight of the LSS Project is no longer required, and the June 2023 IPOR will be the final IPOR released.
