Legislative Requirement
An Efficiency Audit of the State Preservation Board
May 2026
Overview
The State Preservation Board (Board) has opportunities to improve efficiency by:
- Evaluating whether it can obtain additional space to allow it to consolidate its warehouse operations.
- Assessing the projected cost and benefits of installing an automated parking garage system for the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum.
- Replacing manual processes for monitoring custodial costs with system-generated reports.
- Continuing to identify hard-copy records that should be digitized.
Auditors did not identify any duplication, overlap, or conflict with other state agencies or misalignment between the Board's rules in the Texas Administrative Code and its statutory authority and mission.
