History
ISS was created on 1 April 2008 from the former Defence Communications and Services Agency (DCSA). In turn, the DCSA had been formed in 1995 from many single-Service signals organisations including RAFSEE (the Royal Air Force Signals Engineering Establishment)

Locations
ISS is currently centred at Corsham but had a number of key satellite units. These include:


 * Bicester - the old DLO site at Arncott
 * Henlow - the former site of RAFSEE, now part of the RAF Wyton Henlow Brampton site
 * Andover - the current home of the Joint Supply Chain and, under Project Hyperion, the home of the Army's Land Formation once its move from Wilton is complete

Task
The task of the ISS is communications support for operations and business in MOD
