On behalf of Michelle Lange, Director of the Department of Technology, Management, and Budget (DTMB)

Deputy Director for the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget Eric Swanson is a seasoned executive with a unique blend of skills in leadership, strategic planning, collaboration, entrepreneurial spirit.   Eric began his career as a student intern where he has steadily built the Center for Shared Solutions, the organization he now directs.  One of the first of its kind, the Center was launched in 2008 to provide cost-effective, state-of-the-art, shared solutions to all State of Michigan Agencies and external partnership programs.

Throughout his career, Eric has repeatedly undertook sensitive and controversial challenge. He has been instrumental in building trust within traditionally disparate groups leading projects to successful implementations. 

Eric continues to play a critical role in establishing an enterprise-level service where innovative technologies are coordinated, developed, governed, and delivered as part of a business model.  This citizen centric approach cross-cuts traditional organizational and technological boundaries - improving efficiency, promoting transparency, and providing value to Michigan’s residents.
