Luma Strategic Delivery Priorities

  • Reconciliation: Strengthens financial accuracy by automating the comparison of treasury and accounting transactions, improving reconciliation speed across agencies and reducing manual effort required to identify discrepancies.
  • Performance and Goals Enhancement: Modernizes the employee evaluation process with standardized appraisal forms, structured goal setting, and automated notifications to help agencies manage performance consistently across state government.
  • 1099 Processing: Improves tax reporting compliance by automating the generation and distribution of required vendor tax forms, reducing manual processing and supporting timely reporting.
  • Expense Management and Purchasing Card Enhancements: Focuses on improving travel expense and purchasing card processes to increase efficiency, strengthen oversight, and reduce administrative workload for agencies.
  • Statewide Accounting Report Templates for Policy Owners: Develops standardized reporting templates and automated reports to support budgeting, auditing, and statewide policy oversight with more consistent and accessible financial data.​
Current Release:​
August 2026 SCO Release 
Key highlight: Employee and user experience enhancements were implemented across Finance & Supply Management (FSM) and Human Capital Management (HCM), improving access, simplifying processes, and increasing visibility for employees, suppliers, and agency users.
  • Key Feature or Improvement: Supplier Portal user management has been modernized, supporting improved account administration, password management, and multi-factor authentication capabilities for external suppliers while strengthening security and simplifying account access.
  • ​Key Feature or Improvement: A new NCPERS interface now reports enrollments, beneficiaries, and withdrawals directly to NCPERS, eliminating the current two-step enrollment process and creating a more streamlined experience for employees and benefits administrators​​.

IMPORTANT: This is not a guaranteed list and will change as configuration and testing progress.

SCO Release Management is responsible for planning, coordinating, testing, and deploying Luma updates. This process ensures updates are properly integrated and tested before release, helping minimize disruption to users. These updates are provided by the software manufacturer and include fixes, enhancements, and new features that improve Luma functionality, security, and performance. Updates are delivered as scheduled releases so the system can remain current without requiring a full system upgrade.​
