Information Technology Management

The City of Milwaukee uses information systems to add value to the community by delivering high quality services at the lowest possible cost.  

Mission Statement

The Department of Administration's Information and Technology Management Division (ITMD) will lead the City in using and sharing information in ways that will provide the maximum efficiency and greatest benefit to Milwaukee city's citizens, businesses, and City government.
