The 36th Legislature of the U.S. Virgin Islands Committee on Budget, Appropriation and Finance Bureau of Information Technology Fiscal Year 2026 Budget Request Presented by: Rupert O. Ross Director/Chief Information Officer Bureau of Information Technology Office of the Governor INTRODUCTION Good Afternoon Chairperson Novelle Francis, Jr., members of the Committee on Budget, Appropriations and Finance, and other Senators. I am Rupert Ross, Director of the Bureau of Information Technology and the Chief Information Officer for the Government of the Virgin Islands. Thank you for the opportunity to appear before you today to present our Fiscal Year 2026 budget request and to share the progress we have made in transforming government through technology. Joining me is Mr. Jonathan Tucker, our Deputy Director, who oversees various functions within our department, supporting the CIO in the overall strategic direction and management of BIT. Additionally, we have Ms. Kaila Joseph, our Financial Manager, who ensures the responsible allocation of financial resources to support our IT initiatives. Our leadership team also includes Mr. Mark Bough, our Chief Technology Officer (CTO), whose expertise in emerging technologies drives innovation and digital transformation within the Government of the Virgin Islands (GVI). Lastly, Mr. Zakee Abdurrasheed, our IT Project Manager, leads the execution of key projects, ensuring their timely delivery and alignment with organizational goals. Together, our diverse team is dedicated to leveraging technology to improve government services and ensure the efficient use of taxpayer resources. BIT is the central information technology authority for the Government of the Virgin Islands, charged with securing, modernizing, and aligning the Territory’s IT infrastructure. Guided by the vision and leadership of Governor Bryan, we have remained steadfast in our mission to advance innovation and digital transformation. Since our establishment under Title 3, Subsection 10 of the Virgin Islands Code, BIT has served as the engine of digital transformation for the public sector, building a government that is more responsive, efficient, and resilient. CURRENT STATE Over the past fiscal year, BIT has achieved several critical milestones that have strengthened the Territory’s digital foundation. We have made considerable progress in enhancing core infrastructure, expanding cybersecurity capabilities, and continuing the rollout of ServiceNow across key agencies. These efforts have standardized service delivery, modernized citizen-facing services, and improved internal government productivity. However, our work is far from done. Cyber threats continue to evolve, placing increasing pressure on our systems. Our infrastructure includes aging hardware, while demand for digital services and workforce training continues to grow. Our ability to maintain progress depends on sustained investment and strategic support. Among our highest priorities are the consolidation of enterprise systems and the expansion of shared services, initiatives that will streamline operations, reduce duplication, and enable the government to leverage economies of scale. In addition, we are focused on fully deploying the $160 million in FEMA funding for the Land Mobile Radio (LMR) system upgrade and maintaining rigorous cybersecurity compliance. Successful use of FEMA resources will require strong project management and coordination, while ongoing alignment with NIST and federal cyber standards is essential for our digital security. These efforts are vital to protecting the Territory’s infrastructure, fostering efficient service delivery, and ensuring a resilient IT environment. FY 2026 BUDGET REQUEST To maintain momentum and ensure we can meet the evolving needs of the Government and people of the Virgin Islands, BIT respectfully requests a total of $12,329,386 for Fiscal Year 2026. This request includes $3.2 million for personnel and fringe benefits to support 29 positions, $3.7 million for software licensing and essential operational tools, $5.1 million for infrastructure upgrades, vendor services, and workforce training, and $250,000 to support utilities for our data centers and communications infrastructure. This budget request reflects more than operational costs—it is an investment in continuity, cybersecurity defense, and improved government service delivery. With continued support, we can preserve our gains and accelerate toward a more capable, innovative government. RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS BIT has taken a proactive and strategic approach to cybersecurity over the last four years. Using the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 as a guide, we built a roadmap to identify, protect, detect, respond to, and recover from threats, while maintaining strong governance across our systems. Our cybersecurity budget has grown steadily, shifting from reactive fixes to long-term resilience. We have deployed Microsoft Defender and Sentinel across a growing portion of the enterprise, expanded cybersecurity training to include semi-autonomous agencies, SRMC, and JFL, and strengthened the Government Network Operations and Security Center (GNOSC), which continues to serve as the central hub for monitoring and incident response. Our first GVI Cybersecurity Summit helped raise awareness and foster interagency collaboration. While the State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program (SLCGP) has presented challenges due to its territory-wide collaborative requirements, we have made measurable progress in the central government. The SLCGP supports a whole-of-territory approach and complements the direct investments we are making internally. We launched the eCOMM VI Project and secured $160 million in FEMA funding for the Land Mobile Radio system upgrade, enhancing emergency response. BIT also continued the rollout of ServiceNow, which now supports over 3,700 users, providing standardized service request workflows and improving responsiveness. Key projects completed or underway include: • e-Citation, Mobile Data Routing, and Work Order systems for VIPD • SSA 800-53 Compliance project for BMV • Infrastructure and data upgrades for PERB, OCB, DPNR, and TCC • Enterprise system adoptions at DPP and DLCA • IDEA Act implementation • UPS and phone system upgrades at BIT • Infrastructure and operations integration at BSCM • Website development for hospital board and BSCM This past year, BIT delivered on several key initiatives outlined in the FY 2025 testimony. Although we selected a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and confirmed a start date, the candidate was ultimately unable to relocate to the Virgin Islands. Despite this challenge, we successfully hired a security administrator who has been working diligently to strengthen our cybersecurity strategy and operations. This individual continues to grow in the role and may one day be a strong candidate for the CISO position. We accelerated the implementation of IT consolidation, driving system integration and operational efficiencies as we continued to advance key initiatives. We have completed full consolidation with the Department of Property and Procurement (DPP), and are actively working on consolidations with the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB), the Office of Collective Bargaining (OCB), and the Department of Licensing and Consumer Affairs (DLCA). The Relationship Management Office (RMO) had been supported by a dedicated Business Relationship Manager, who played a key role in strengthening communication between BIT and agency leadership. Last year, however, we experienced the loss of our Business Relationship Manager—a significant departure that presented challenges to our coordination and planning processes. Despite this setback, we have maintained our momentum and remained focused on our strategic goals. This commitment is evident in the results of our FY 2025 Customer Satisfaction Survey, where agencies reported improved responsiveness, increased transparency, and greater confidence in BIT’s cybersecurity initiatives. These results reinforce our determination to stay engaged with agency partners and ensure that our services continue to meet their evolving needs. We continued to expand ServiceNow capabilities, onboarding additional agencies and improving service delivery through automated workflows and transparency tools. The Government Network Operations and Security Center (GNOSC) has been strengthened with improved monitoring, enhanced incident response procedures. Under M1162 funding, key infrastructure projects progressed as planned. The VIPD Surveillance Camera Project has now entered its second phase and advanced to operational status, while ongoing support continues for the CAD/RMS initiative. In tandem, data center and tower facility upgrades have bolstered system reliability and power resilience. We have also taken steps to promote digital service adoption across the Territory. Tools like DocuSign and Adobe Sign are now more widely deployed, supporting secure and efficient e- signatures for government workflows. These updates reflect our commitment to accountability, transparency, and progress in every area highlighted to this body last fiscal year. Additionally, our M365 Copilot training initiative saw strong engagement, with a total attendance of 334 participants and an average satisfaction rating of 4.51 out of 5. This underscores the growing interest in AI-driven tools and our ongoing efforts to build a skilled and future-ready workforce. AGENCY FEEDBACK Our progress is reflected in feedback from agencies. According to the GVI BIT Satisfaction Survey and Seniority Level Report conducted in FY 2025, agency comments include: • “BIT has made noticeable improvements in responsiveness. Requests are acknowledged and resolved faster than in previous years.” • “We appreciate the increased transparency and communication from BIT leadership. The monthly updates and dashboards help us stay informed.” • “The ServiceNow portal has made it easier to track our requests and get timely updates.” • “Cybersecurity training and awareness have improved. We feel more confident in our ability to identify and report threats.” • “There’s still room for improvement in data reporting accuracy, but we’ve seen progress.” • “We’d like to see more proactive outreach from BIT to understand our evolving needs.” These comments show that agencies are gaining trust in BIT’s ability to deliver. Our overall satisfaction score rose to 3.9 out of 5, with notable improvements in key areas: Service Desk satisfaction rose 3%, IT innovation leadership rose 10%, and IT security rose 11%. Satisfaction with devices and infrastructure rose by 7%, and satisfaction with data accuracy and reporting rose by 3% and 2%, respectively. These improvements reflect our commitment to continuous improvement and transparent communication. THE RISKS OF STAGNATION Without continued funding, we risk slowing the progress we have made and our ability to defend government systems from cyber threats could weaken. Platforms like ServiceNow, which support thousands of users and streamline agency services, could lose essential support and continued consolidation of outdated systems and improvements to our technology infrastructure could be delayed. We have built strong momentum. Our teams are working to modernize, protect, and serve more efficiently than ever before. But digital transformation does not stand still—it requires ongoing care, coordination, and commitment. Without that, we risk falling behind at a time when technology is moving faster than ever. LOOKING FORWARD Our vision is to be a trusted, innovative, and resilient technology partner that empowers the Government of the Virgin Islands to deliver efficient, secure, and citizen-centric services. Our mission is to lead digital transformation through strategic planning, secure infrastructure, and collaborative service delivery. Guided by our CREED—Collaboration, Responsiveness, Excellence, Efficiency, and a Digital-first mindset—we will: • Mature Program Management Office (PMO) to align project execution with strategic priorities • Expand Service Management Office (SMO) to mature IT service delivery and expand ServiceNow capabilities • Modernize our IT infrastructure, replace aging systems, and expand secure broadband • Expand the GNOSC to improve monitoring, incident response, and cybersecurity posture • Strengthen our governance framework with clearer roles and performance metrics • Enhance digital services, integrate self-service and omnichannel tools, and improve citizen experience • Build a skilled workforce and promote data-driven decision-making across agencies Budget Overview EXHIBIT 1 BUDGET RECOMMENDATION 2024 2025 2026 Personnel Services $1,932,108 $1,950,480 $2,246,393 Fringe Benefits $871,458 $827,907 $955,345 General Fund Supplies 107,000 122,000 104,000 General Fund Miscellaneous Supplies • M2012 Microsoft Agreement & Support 4,190,688 3,202,915 3,637,915 Supplies $4,297,688 $3,324,915 $3,741,915 General Fund Other Services 537,268 1,277,660 1,061,989 General Fund Miscellaneous Other Services • M1162 Maintenance of IT Infrastructure - $3,206,206 4,219,732 3,206,206 3,111,292 • M3103 License Fees GWAN - $952,452 871,885 952,452 962,452 Other Services $5,628,885 $5,446,318 $5,135,733 Utilities $250,000 $250,000 $250,000 Grand Total $12,980,139 $11,799,620 $12,329,386 GENERAL FUND BUDGET REQUEST Our General Fund budget request supports crucial initiatives for sustaining our department’s operations.
