Our Mission

Senior Citizen Picture

The Case Management, Information and Payrolling System (CMIPS) tracks case information and processes payments for the California Department of Social Services In-Home Supportive Services Program, enabling nearly 400,000 qualified aged, blind, and disabled individuals in California to remain in their own homes and avoid institutionalization.

The mission of the CMIPS II Project is to award and administer a contract to develop, implement, and maintain a follow-on system to the current CMIPS system. Our goal is to transition from the legacy CMIPS to CMIPS II with no disruption in IHSS services.

 

Current Project Status

The prime contract was awarded in April 2008, with a Project Initiation date of July 2008. Support contracts have been awarded to help manage the statewide system implementation, and to assist with project management and system engineering.
The CMIPS II application will be implemented during a period of over three years. We are refining design and coding, and beginning to test the CMIPS II application, with assistance from CWDA and county participants. CMIPS II will then be implemented in three pilot counties, Merced, San Diego and Yolo, and the remaining 55 counties will be rolled out in five overlapping groups. Each group will have at least 14 months of pre-engagement and 7 months of engagement and implementation activities, beginning with executive briefings to full county operations. CMIPS II Project Implementation staff will be onsite with each county as they implement CMIPS II. Funding is provided to counties, at proportionate levels, for implementation activities.

September 21, 2010: User Acceptance Testing (UAT) began on Monday, September 20, 2010. UAT is planned to continue through Friday, December 3, 2010. No user testing is scheduled for the week of November 22nd through 26th (Thanksgiving).
