Mission Statement

The mission of Central Management Services is to free Illinois State agencies and governmental entities to focus their resources on their core missions. Using a Shared Services model, we work in partnership with them to reduce the total cost and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the administrative services we provide them and, thus improve the services they provide to the citizens of Illinois. We apply those same goals to the services we provide the general public. In fulfilling our mission, we utilize best practices to create, lead and manage administrative services, to preserve the States human and concrete assets, and to establish and monitor standards for the greater good of state government.
