Executive Summary

The CAPPS Program Model

The CAPPS program model offers agencies two alternatives for deploying CAPPS — CAPPS Central and CAPPS Hub.

Main systems platform of the CAPPS program.
Centrally managed and maintained by the Comptroller’s office.
PeopleSoft-based CAPPS Financials and HR/Payroll baseline applications and related components.
The Comptroller’s office bears costs of transition, deployment, ongoing maintenance and support.
Deploying agencies cover internal costs such as staff, training and travel.

For large, complex agencies with established PeopleSoft-based systems.
Not centrally managed by the Comptroller’s office.
Hub agencies receive their own copy and regular updates of the CAPPS Financials and/or HR/Payroll baseline applications to implement, maintain and support on their own infrastructure.
CAPPS Hub agencies bear costs of transition, deployment, ongoing maintenance, support and all other internal costs.
TxDOT, HHS, Texas Workforce Commission (TWC), Texas Education Agency (TEA) and Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) are CAPPS Hub agencies deployed on CAPPS Financials, CAPPS HR/Payroll or both.
