Mission, Vision & Leadership
Vision
We will be the technology source experts enthusiastically supporting
the various technologically driven Auxiliary programs and projects. We
will provide the Auxiliary leaders and membership with guidance, honest
answers and feedback at all times. We will constantly be looking
forward, proactively implementing new ideas, and using the latest
technology tools available.
Mission
The Department of Information Technology will serve the Auxiliary
organization and Membership in two key areas.
1. The ‘IS’ (Information Services) role is the collection
and maintenance of member activity data, which is administered via
AUXDATA. The AUXDATA tasking is shared directly with the Coast Guard via
OSC Martinsburg, and OCX Headquarters.
2. The ‘CS’ (Communications Services) tasking is focused on
employing emerging technologies. In the 1st decade, we have seen major
improvements in how we use these resources to better communicate and
manage Auxiliary needs, at all levels of the organization.
Both processes are driven by evolving technologies, a Team
of very talented National I-Department Staff Officers and nearly two
thousand dedicated ‘IS’ and ‘CS’ Officers throughout the organization.
