DEPARTMENT PURPOSE AND GOALS

The Information Technology Solutions (IT Solutions) Department provides for the management of the city’s
information technology infrastructure, systems and services. The Information Technology Solutions Fund was
incorporated to the General Fund in FY2019. Prior to FY2019 the Information Technology Solutions Fund was an
Internal Service Fund.

IT Solutions is responsible for coordinating all information technology resources to support the strategic vision of
the City of Fort Worth by providing quality service to the community. This coordination of information technology
is accomplished through such services as planning and project management, administrative support, technical
services, software application development and acquisition, and telecommunications.

All city departments are customers of IT Solutions. The Department receives the bulk of its revenue from the
allocations made to these customers. The Department’s expenditures include personnel costs, operating supplies,
contractual/consulting services, licensing, maintenance and equipment such as servers, other hardware and
software.

IT Solutions operates and maintains the Fort Worth Regional Radio System. The system supports more than
33,000 subscribers throughout more than 130 jurisdictions. Revenue from this system offsets annual operating
costs.

IT Solutions is organized into the following functional areas: Infrastructure Engineering, Services and ERP/IT
Finance.
