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's "Wyton, Henlow, Brampton" site
* Stanbridge - the site of the RAF's former supply centre, now a server farm
* 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
