Who We Are: The Internal Services Department (ISD) plays a major role in supporting all County of Los Angeles departments and commissions. With an annual budget of over $885 million and 2,162 budgeted positions along with over 5,120 contracted workers of varying professions in facilities management, information technology, environmental, administrative, purchasing and contracting, ISD is the County's trusted partner and provider of choice.

Positions allocable to this class typically report to an IT supervisor or manager, and function as managers of information technology projects of smaller or limited scale and complexity. Incumbents utilize techniques, methods, and tools of information technology project management to oversee projects of limited size and/or complexity, and risk as determined by budget allocation, mission criticality, technical and/or solution complexity, and number of involved stakeholder organizations. Positions require information technology and programmatic knowledge necessary to provide insightful and effective planning, management, and oversight of project progress and results. Projects typically assigned to positions in this class are usually well-defined in scope, associated with one line of business or operational function, have limited systems integration, and are generally non-essential to continued County operations and services.
