The Administration Division is responsible for the continuing support of all other divisions within the County Attorney's Office. It develops and implements policies and procedures under the direction of the County Attorney and is primarily responsible for budget and finance, personnel, purchasing and facilities management. Thanks to the County Attorney's fiscal restraint, the cost of trying a criminal case in Pima County is about half the cost of other metropolitan areas.

An integral part of the Administrative Division is the Information Technology Unit. During the past decade, progress in automation has had a tremendous impact on the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the Office. The implementation of our Local Area Network (LAN) allows the staff to communicate through e-mail and permits the sharing of information with other law enforcement agencies, such as the Sheriff's Office, Superior Court, Tucson Police Department, the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission and outside research libraries increasing the overall efficiency of the office.
