J. Not later than January 1, the Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise Services shall publish a shared services cost-performance assessment report documenting the amount of each state agency's cost for providing shared services.

On a yearly basis the Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise Services shall compile and publish a report documenting the cost savings resulting from shared services contracts.
