NYS Education Finance Analysis and Design Project
This project is aimed at the complete modernization of NYSED’s State Aid Management System (SAMS), a secure information system that facilitates the collection and processing of data to distribute annual state aid to all New York school districts.
​
SAMS is accessible to authorized users from each school district, staff from the State Aid unit of the Education Department, and other authorized users from various state agencies. The prototypes were developed based on future state workflows and business functions performed by the business units at the Office of Education Finance. The mockups designed are intended to explore the look and feel of user interfaces of the future system.

Attendance Unit, BOCES Unit, Building Unit (RoS), Charter School Office (CSO), Data Management Unit (DMU), DOB, Assembly & Senate, FARU, NYC Board of Education (BOE), NYC School Construction Authority (SCA), Pupil Transportation Unit (PTU), Payments Unit, School Districts & BOCES, SA Transportation Unit, ST-3 Unit
