The Honorable Phil Mendelson
Chairman
Council of the District of Columbia

1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Suite 504
Washington, DC 20004-3001

Dear Chairman Mendelson:

Pursuant to the Reprogramming Policy Act of 1980, D.C. Official Code § 47-363(a) and the Full-
Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025, approved March 15, 2025, Pub. L. No.
119-4, the Office of the Chief Financial Officer has reviewed the Mayor’s request to reprogram
Capital funds budget authority and allotment in the amount of $1,500,000 within the District of
Columbia Public Schools (DCPS).

This reprogramming is needed to provide funding for the design and development of customized
software system that will integrate various data related to procurement, human resources, and other
fiscal operations.

Capital budget in the amount of $1,500,000 will be reprogrammed from the following project:

Agency Project Title Amount
GA0 100427 GA0.AFM04C.TECHNOLOGY
MODERNIZATION INITIATIVE $ 1,500,000.00
Total $ 1,500,000.00

Capital budget in the amount of $1,500,000 will be reprogrammed to the following project:

Agency Project Title Amount
GA0 100430 GA0.T22DIC.IT - DATA
INFRASTRUCTURE $ 1,500,000.00
Total $ 1,500,000.00

Capital funds in the amount of $1,500,000 are available to reprogram from Technology
Modernization Initiative project because the project does not require additional funds in the current
fiscal year.

Honorable Phil Mendelson
FY 2025 Reprogramming Request for $1,500,000 of Capital Funds Budget Authority and Allotment within the District
of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS)

The Office of Budget and Planning’s analysis indicates that the reprogramming will not have an
adverse impact on the DCPS’s budget or the District’s financial plan. The OCFO has no objection
to this reprogramming request.

Sincerely,

Glen Lee
Chief Financial Officer
