Background

The Sauk County MIS Department supports Sauk County’s information technology with a variety of services designed to improve the effectiveness of County staff, in the performance of their job duties.  The creation of a Data and Information Specialist would provide the MIS Department with the capability of expanding those services to include the development of information resources, to provide decision-makers with the resources required to make data-driven decisions.  

Sauk County’s information systems currently collect and store electronic data in more than twenty separate databases, over five platforms, on premise and in the cloud.  The dispersed nature of these data sources present a significant technical challenge to the consolidation of data elements for the purpose of analysis.
