  • Establishes a 5-member board consisting of the department director, state chief information officer, Michigan Economic Development Corporation CEO, and two public members appointed by the governor to oversee the loan program.

  • Authorizes loans up to $250,000 to state agencies, local governments, colleges, universities, school districts, and nonprofit organizations providing public services, with loans exceeding $250,000 available for multiagency initiatives, shared service projects, or high-return efficiency improvements.
