Our mission is to provide Spokane County with the technical leadership and expertise to manage networks and computer systems. By focusing on customer-driven solutions, we coordinate and provide planning, education, services and tools in a cost-effective and timely manner.

Our organization...

ISD is structured into four divisions:

Administration - ISD Director and administrative staff.

Technical Services - We provide network, communication, database, hardware, desktop, telephone and video conferencing support services.

Geographic Information System Services - We provide management, development and support services for the Spokane County GIS program.

Application / Programming Services - We provide services ranging from system analysis/design, development, implementation, ongoing maintenance, needs assessment and application procurement assistance. We will assist our customers as they define their system needs and aid them in determining the best system for their needs. We assist in evaluations of vendor systems and offer recommendations for purchase. We develop and support applications to meet the business needs of County departments, displaying and/or processing text, image and GIS data, as well as providing interfaces between systems to gain efficiencies in County operations.  Our development efforts have yielded systems for virtually every County department, including Public Works, the Courts, the Prosecutor, Public Defender, Budget, Purchasing, Auditor, Assessor and Treasurer.
