About

The Department of General Services (DGS) serves as business manager for the state of California. DGS offers perhaps the most diverse set of services in all of California state government. Our employees do everything from managing construction projects to procuring vital equipment to overseeing a statewide vehicle fleet - and much, much more.

At DGS, we have an annual strategic planning process in which each of our divisions and offices identifies a few select strategic goals and then determines what they can achieve within the calendar year. In the interest of transparency, we then publish our goals through our annual Strategic Plan, which we post and distribute in printed form early in the calendar year. While some goals identified in the Strategic Plan will take several years to achieve, we strive to complete most of the strategic goals within the calendar year. View the 2021 Strategic Plan.

We then identify these completed goals, along with other notable achievements, in our annual Year in Review.  View the 2020 Year in Review.
