They are assisted by a Vice-President in charge of Information Systems (Gérard Soula) and by an IS Policy Council (COSI) which determines the strategic priorities in the implementation of projects. The Directorate's activity and management policy (purchasing and services) are examined by the DOSI Management Board, which makes proposals on the subject for arbitration by the institution's management.
The DOSI is headed by a Director (Serge Portella), assisted by a Deputy Director (Philippe Worms) and two Technical Directors (Didier Pin, DT Infrastructures and Jean-Philippe Floret, DT SI).
