💲 OKLAHOMA REVENUE: May GRF collections 10.2% above monthly estimate

General Revenue Fund (GRF) collections in May totaled $701.5 million, which is $64.9 million, or 10.2%, above the monthly estimate. This total is also $57.9 million, or 9%, above collections from May 2025.

GRF collections for the first 11 months of fiscal year 2026 stand at $7.9 billion. This is $458.3 million, or 6.2%, above the year-to-date estimate and $97.6 million, or 1.3%, above collections from the same period in FY 2025.

📢 From OMES Director Mark Wood: “With May’s reported collections, the state remains ahead of its certified revenue projections heading into the final month of FY 2026. The latest totals exceeded monthly and year-to-date estimates and prior-year collections, keeping overall revenue performance on track as the fiscal year nears its close.”

ℹ️ As state government’s main operating fund, the GRF is the key indicator of state government’s fiscal status and the predominant funding source for the annual appropriated state budget. GRF collections are revenues that remain for the appropriated state budget after rebates, refunds and other mandatory apportionments, and after sales and use taxes are remitted back to municipalities. In contrast, gross collections, reported by the state treasurer, are all revenues remitted to the Oklahoma Tax Commission.

A common myth about state procurement is that it exists only to slow down business, but Oklahoma Purchasing Director Amanda Otis is building a team that prioritizes speed and efficiency while ensuring compliance with Oklahoma’s statutes.

In a recent NASPO Pulse podcast, Amanda highlights innovative practices driving progress in Oklahoma’s Central Purchasing office, including:

👉 Category management: An organizational model that allows team members to become industry experts for respective commodity categories while building collaborative relationships with external stakeholders.
👉 CP Listens: Monthly webinars designed to collect feedback, answer questions and connect with procurement officers across the state.
👉 AI tools: Government-led artificial intelligence models that, with human oversight, simplify and expedite the procurement process.

Join us in congratulating the OMES Employees of the Month for April 2026: Debbie Ives and Jimmy Small! 👏

Here's what their colleagues had to say about their impact at OMES:

🤝 “Debbie Ives consistently demonstrates exceptional professionalism, dedication and attention to detail in her role reviewing exempt agency purchases. Her thorough understanding of procurement laws and regulations ensures that every transaction is handled with accuracy and compliance.

“What truly sets Debbie apart is her ability to balance strict regulatory compliance with outstanding customer service. She works diligently to help agencies obtain necessary goods and services while carefully safeguarding the integrity of the purchasing process. Her commitment to doing things the right way never wavers, and agencies routinely rely on her expertise and guidance.

“Debbie’s attention to detail is remarkable. She consistently catches issues others might overlook, helping prevent errors and ensuring processes are completed correctly the first time. Her dedication, reliability and professionalism make her an invaluable resource to both her team and the agencies she supports.”

📈 “Jimmy is an integral part of the finance team and the definition of a dependable team player. He fearlessly takes on new tasks with an excellent attitude, routinely goes out of his way to help others and has been incredibly patient with colleagues learning new roles.

“Known as a responsive, cooperative problem solver, Jimmy has taken on numerous extra responsibilities to fill team gaps without complaint. He is highly effective at building strong working relationships both inside and outside OMES, and he intentionally sets up systems to complete his work accurately and efficiently.

“If he does not know an answer immediately, he will work tirelessly to find it. Jimmy is a vital asset to our agency’s success and highly deserving of this honor.”

We’re thankful for Debbie and Jimmy for doing their best to serve those who serve Oklahomans!

🤝 “Jonny is an exceptional employee who accepts new challenges without reservation and frequently takes initiative on projects. As a proactive problem-solver, he consistently assists the legal team and provides guidance to other divisions.

“He exceeds expectations in every task. Jonny is a reliable resource for his colleagues and deserves formal recognition for his dedication. Since I joined the department in November, he has been an essential mentor.

“From my first day, he assisted me with everything from basic office supplies to drafting agency documents and mastering the software required for a state attorney position. He is a vital asset to our office.”

📈 “Kristie’s initiative and years of dedicated effort have fostered a more positive environment for all departments. She consistently volunteers for communal tasks without being asked, such as maintaining the breakroom, refrigerator and coffee area.

“She also drives employee engagement by researching and creating puzzles for all divisions and personally providing prizes for the winners. Kristie is unfailingly professional and kind. My colleagues and I agree that her contributions make our office a better place to work.”
