Limitations on Liability in IT Procurement

The National Association of State Chief Information Officers (NASCIO) is a nonprofit association representing state chief information officers and information technology executives and managers from the states, territories, and the District of Columbia. Since their founding in 1969 NASCIO provides state CIOs and state members with products and services designed to support the challenging role of the state CIO, stimulate the exchange of information and promote the adoption of IT best practices and innovations. In 2004, the NASCIO on Unlimited Liability – Gaining Traction on the Road to “Win-Win” publication looked at state policies regarding limitations on liability for state procurement policies. Over the last 10 years we have slowly seen changes in policy take place among the states. This infographic shows the status of which states do and don’t have liability limitations and what changes have taken place the past 5 years.
