The Department of Management Services (DMS) is the business arm of state government. The department's primary mission is to support other state agencies as well as current and former state employees with workforce and business-related functions so that agencies can focus on their core missions as defined in law.
DMS is divided into two major services areas, Business Operations (state purchasing, real estate development and management, telecommunications, fleet and federal surplus property, and private prison monitoring), and Workforce Operations (human resource management, People First, state group insurance, and retirement).
DMS administratively houses several independent entities, including the Florida Commission on Human Relations and the Public Employees Relations Commission. In addition, the Division of Administrative Hearings is statutorily housed within the department, though DMS does not provide the division services or funding. In addition, the Florida Cybersecurity Task Force is an adjunct operation to the Department of Management Services which reviews and assesses the state's cybersecurity infrastructure, governance, and operations.
