ISC Finance

While focused on improving data quality and sharing financial insights with our stakeholders, ISC depends on the financial engagement of our clients. We value transparency, efficiency, and consistency in addressing the unique needs of our partners in the Schools and Centers. To better support our clients, ISC Finance includes the following teams:

  • Billing and Charges -- Processes the monthly, quarterly, and yearly charges for the services ISC provides to 40 Schools and Centers, and more than 25 external entities.
  • Budget and Planning - Works with ISC leadership to forecast departmental, service, and project costs, as well as levels of reimbursements. The team also supports ISC stakeholders, including School and Center IT Directors, BAs, and Vice Deans, with forecasting their ISC service consumption and charges.
  • Financial Insights - Collects asset, contract, utilization, and cost reimbursement data to establish total cost of ownership by asset, application, service, and project. This information is used to establish the value of ISC activities, identify opportunity areas, and drive investment decisions. The team uses the Apptio tool and the Technology Business Management (TBM) framework for its analysis.

We look forward to working with you.
