<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">For many years the Oregon Statewide Payroll Services (OSPS) staff have been involved in a number of high level analysis of the potential savings in moving the system to paperless paystubs and W-2’s. Last fall Sharon McKeehan (former OSPS Manager) began working on this project and secured a Willamette University intern to help gather information and statistics. The intern left and Sharon completed the initial Business Case documentation prior to her retirement this year.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">OSPS would like to share this initial version of the business case for Electronic Distribution of Payroll Payments and W-2’s with our customers and stakeholders within State government. We hope to convene a</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">small representative group</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri"> of state agency payroll and finance staff to vet the Business Case. Our primary goal for this vetting process</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">is</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri"> to seek greater understanding and clarity of the cost estimates and savings, get a critical review of the assumptions, and</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">to</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">solicit ideas about improvements and next steps. We plan to use the work from this vetting process to add to and refine the Business Case into the next version that will lead to a decision toward implementation.</FONT></SPAN></P>
