Dow Jones Description

International Decision Systems was founded in 1974 as Decision Systems, Inc. Our flagship product InfoLease is an outgrowth of an effort to service and maintain a product built by Leasing Northwest a division of what became Norwest Banks and now Wells Fargo. As our expertise for lease management evolved, so did our product offerings.

We're now reaching beyond to other origination intensive industries like consumer finance and insurance.
