H.  For the purposes of this section, “capital lease” means a
lease-purchase agreement which provides an option for the State of
Oklahoma or its agencies to purchase property, including personal

and real property, which is the subject thereof and/or a lease
agreement that provides an option for the State of Oklahoma or its
agencies to lease such property, which is the subject thereof, at a

rented at fair market value.
I.  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.  The lowest
ranking state agencies shall enter into a contract with the Office
of Management and Enterprise Services for the provision of shared
financial services, provided that the Director of the Office of
Management and Enterprise Services determines that implementation of
such a contract would be feasible and documents that the contractual
agreement will result in cost savings or efficiencies to the state.
Contracts required by this subsection shall be entered into at the
start of the next fiscal year.  When a state agency is contracted
with the Office of Management and Enterprise Services for the
provision of shared financial services, the agency may discontinue
using shared services when documentation showing that the agency can
provide the services at a lower cost to the state is provided to and
approved by the Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise
Services.  As used in this subsection, “shared services” means
process, resource utilization or action as defined by administrative
rule.  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.  The provisions of this subsection shall not be
applicable to the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education or to
any institutions within The Oklahoma State System of Higher
Education.
