Technology Support and Information Management

The Technology Support and Information Management Unit is responsible for two large areas of work; technical support and information management. In both areas the expectations on the Unit have increased. In technical support it includes an upgrade to ensure all officers can access information and communicate easily. In information management, the two big additions are the coordination of the monitoring and evaluation framework and the access to information through reports, intranet and internet. The Unit must work with all other service areas on both collecting and coordinating data into a usable and accessible form.
