About Gateway

The Indiana Gateway for Government Units is a data collection and transparency portal supported by the State of Indiana and Indiana University and used by thousands of local government officials, academic researchers, and taxpayers. Launched in 2010, Gateway grew out of the Information for Indiana Initiative, a collaboration of the State of Indiana and Indiana University to make state-collected information available to Indiana citizens.

Gateway was originally designed and implemented by the Indiana Business Research Center (IBRC) at Indiana University and is supported today by a collaboration of team members from the IBRC and the participating state agencies. Those state agencies are responsible, by Indiana statute, for a variety of local government financial oversight tasks.

Hundreds of local units of government, schools, state agencies, casino operators, and others submit financial and operational data via Gateway. Data submitted includes budgets, annual financial reports, employee compensation reports, debt issuances, local development agreements, TIF district summaries, and school district collective bargaining reports, among others.
