The Illinois Governor's Office of Management and Budget controls the green so that the state stays in the black. The agency's main function is to prepare the governor's annual state budget. In the process, it advises the governor on the availability of revenues and the allocation of resources to agency programs, and coordinates and controls the governor's management and budget priorities by analyzing and monitoring state agency programs, personnel, and operating needs. The office also issues bonds and works closely with state agency directors and chief financial officers to improve and streamline services at a lower cost.
