Below is a list of proposed IT Projects that are currently in the PAL review and approval process with the California Department of Technology (CDT). For purposes of this list “PAL Stage” refers to the last document officially submitted to CDT.
Projects are removed from this list when they exit the PAL process because: 1) the Agency/state entity receives CDT’s approval to begin project implementation; 2) CDT approves a Project Delegation Request; 3) the Agency/state entity withdraws the project; or 4) the CDT denies the project approval.
The California Department of Public Health (CDPH), through the California Tobacco Prevention Program (CTPP) and the Maternal, Child, and Adolescent Health (MCAH) Division, proposes to implement the Grant Enterprise Management Solution (GEMS) to modernize the way funding workflows are managed and tracked. GEMS will replace outdated manual systems with a centralized platform that improves efficiency, consistency, and visibility across application, contract, invoice, and reporting processes. This initiative will address long-standing inefficiencies by accelerating funding access and service delivery, improving administrative efficiency, and automating submission and reimbursement processing timeframes. GEMS will also support faster and more accurate document preparation through standardized workflows and structured data. GEMS is expected to reduce the administrative burden, improve audit readiness, and support faster processing of reimbursements for local implementation partners and funding recipients. The initial implementation will focus on CTPP and MCAH, with the platform designed to scale across other CDPH programs in the future.
