403bCompare will be delayed
Several of the target dates related to the launch of the 403bCompare Web site
have been recently delayed. The 403bCompare Web site is now scheduled to be
fully functional and available to employees of local school districts,
community college districts and county offices of education on August 27,
2004. (For the purpose of California Education Code sections 25113 and 25114,
August 27, 2004 will be known as the “implementation date.”)
Some areas of the site will continue to be accessible before the
implementation
date; vendors can currently log on to register general information about their
company. However, the features allowing vendors to add specific product
information and for employers to designate their list of approved vendors will
not be available until after July 16, 2004.
The vendor registration period is unchanged; all vendors who wish to
participate in 403bCompare must communicate their intent to register to
CalSTRS
by June 25, 2004.
This notification will be given to participating vendors and employers, and
will be posted on the 403bCompare Web site.
