What the data shows for computer and information systems managers in Indiana
Findings describe the published observation periods shown below. Research published Oct 10, 2026.
The highest-paying metro has a smaller employment market
Bloomington, IN leads the Indiana metro comparison on median annual pay at $165,680, with estimated employment of 190. Indianapolis-Carmel-Greenwood, IN leads on employment size at 3,880, while its median pay is $155,230.

Employment counts describe existing jobs, not available vacancies.
OEWS May 2025 · BLS OEWSSome metro estimates cross state lines. Higher nominal pay does not establish better living standards or better chances of finding a job.
This occupation is less concentrated in the state
Using the national share of employment as the benchmark, computer and information systems managers have a published location quotient of 0.58 in Indiana in OEWS May 2025. Their state employment share is 0.58 times the national share. The state estimate is 8,060 jobs, 1.2% of the national employment estimate for this occupation. It represents 2.52 jobs per thousand jobs in the state's OEWS employment universe. The comparison describes where existing employment is concentrated, not current hiring or future growth.
OEWS May 2025 · BLS OEWSOEWS employment estimates describe covered wage-and-salary jobs and exclude self-employed workers; location quotients do not measure vacancies or worker demand.
Published median pay is below the U.S. median
OEWS May 2025 records a state median annual wage of $142,040 for computer and information systems managers in Indiana. Against the national median of $175,140, that is 18.9% lower. A median describes the middle of the distribution and does not include a living-cost adjustment.

Statewide layoff-notice filings
Indiana statewide7 notices in this source
Notice dates from Aug 4, 2026 to Nov 1, 2026 (UTC), a rolling 90-calendar-day period.
What this means: These are statewide totals from notices dated in this period in Indiana’s official tracking system. Reported positions are the counts published in those notices, not a count of people confirmed to have lost their jobs. No employer is identified.
Notices describe planned workforce changes, not confirmed job losses. Notices may be amended or withdrawn. This statewide context is not occupation-specific and does not affect the Job Market Health score. Indiana’s state tracking system also records smaller Rapid Response events that fall below federal WARN thresholds, so it is not a list of federal WARN filings only.

AI & this occupation
How AI relates to Computer and information systems managers work
Across 4 research exposure measures, Computer and information systems managers is in the middle technical AI exposure band based on the mean of the available source-specific percentile ranks. Exposure describes how much of the work the studied AI capabilities could technically assist with; it is not a forecast of job loss.
Observed use of Claude for this occupation's tasks is in the higher third of occupations in the Anthropic Economic Index, a dated observed task-exposure benchmark, not conversation share or the share of workers using AI. Its observation window is not recorded in this saved release.
In the task mix derived from the March 27, 2025 Anthropic release, 73.6% followed augmentation patterns (people iterating, validating or learning with AI), based on 3 matched tasks.
JobMarketHealth has not measured an AI effect on this occupation's employment or wages, and these figures do not enter its scores; there is no clear evidence of displacement in the data shown here.
Exposure measures (kept separate)
- GPTs are GPTs exposure (β, GPT-4 rated): 0.53 of 1, national percentile 84 (higher third)
- Microsoft AI applicability: 0.15 of 1, national percentile 53 (middle third)
- AIOE (Felten, Raj & Seamans): 1.06 (standardized), national percentile 77 (higher third)
- OECD AI Capability Gap (lower gap = higher potential exposure): gap 5.9 of 23, national percentile 18 (lower third)
OECD capability gap by domain
As published by the OECD: the gap between what the occupation demands (0-5) and current AI capability in each domain. A lower gap means AI is closer to the requirement (higher potential exposure); 0 means AI already meets it or the domain is not relevant.
- Language: gap 1.00 (demand 4.00 of 5)
- Social interaction: gap 2.00 (demand 4.00 of 5)
- Problem solving: gap 2.05 (demand 4.05 of 5)
- Creativity: gap 0.00 (demand 2.50 of 5)
- Metacognition & critical thinking: gap 2.25 (demand 4.25 of 5)
- Knowledge, learning & memory: gap 0.85 (demand 3.85 of 5)
- Vision: gap 0.00 (demand 0.00 of 5)
- Manipulation: gap 0.00 (demand 0.00 of 5)
- Robotic intelligence: gap 0.00 (demand 0.00 of 5)
National context: what businesses used generative AI for
From the Census 2025-26 BTOS AI Supplement (all industries; businesses whose employees used generative AI). Census did not measure Computer and information systems managers specifically.
- Writing or editing documents, emails, or communications: 85.4%
- Searching for information or technical help: 49.9%
- Interpreting, analyzing, translating, or summarizing documents: 44.6%
- Information processing, paperwork, or filing: 34.7%
Indiana context
In the Census BTOS core AI-use question, an estimated 20.5% of Indiana employer businesses reported using AI in the two weeks ending 2026-10-04 (U.S.: 24.6%).
Separately, the one-time 2025-26 BTOS AI Supplement (collected 2025-11-17 to 2026-02-08) found 18.0% of Indiana businesses using AI at that time, and 19.3% reporting that employees used generative AI for work tasks in the prior six months. It describes how AI was being used then, not a trend.
Using each occupation's exposure band and Indiana employment weights (OEWS May 2025), 26.0% of covered jobs are in occupations in the higher-exposure band. This describes the state's occupation mix, not a measured AI effect.
Exposure and observed usage are separate measures and neither equals job loss. Census BTOS figures are business-level surveys and are not occupation-specific.

How to read this page
QCEW measures employment and wages by industry, not by occupation. We weight those industry conditions using the published industry mix for Computer and information systems managers. These figures describe the industries that employ Computer and information systems managers; they are not direct counts of people working in the occupation or of jobs currently open. This page is not part of the national 0 to 100 Job Market Health score.
