Modernizing the state and county systems that constituents already depend on — without breaking the service, the audit trail, or the 200 caseworkers who use it every day.
Our home turf is healthcare IT. The work overlaps cleanly with public-sector posture — audit logging, accessibility, careful procurement — so we take agency engagements where the muscles we've built in clinical data carry over.
Public-sector technology challenges are rarely the result of neglect. More often, they stem from years of vendor turnover, evolving contracts, and teams tasked with maintaining legacy systems they did not build.
We do the unglamorous half of public-sector modernization — replacing the binder system without dropping a single benefit check, opening up a portal without breaking the screen reader, and shipping audit-ready code that the next administration can still maintain.
Replacing 15-year-old vendor systems without taking the constituent-facing service down for a weekend. Strangler-fig patterns, parallel runs, dual-write windows, and a clean handoff from the incumbent.
Section 508 and WCAG 2.1 AA built in from the first wireframe — not bolted on after the audit comes back. Screen-reader passes, keyboard-only flows, plain-language review.
Application intake, eligibility, case status, document upload, and the unglamorous queue-management work that keeps a counter from forming. Mobile-first, multi-language where it matters.
State-to-county feeds, agency-to-agency reconciliations, and the boring SFTP / API / flat-file plumbing that keeps a benefits roll, a tax roll, and a health registry in agreement with each other.
Public-sector references are available on request under the usual non-disclosure terms. The summaries below are anonymized until a client signs off on attribution.
Replaced a 17-year-old ColdFusion intake system with an accessible React portal and a documented .NET API behind it. Cut average application time from 38 to 11 minutes. Zero downtime cutover across 14 county offices.
Stitched four siloed case-management systems into one nightly reconciled view for a county health department. Caseworkers stopped re-keying. Auditors stopped finding mismatches. The state report finally tied out on the first pass.
We read the RFP. We know the difference between a sole-source justification and a piggyback. We can sub under a prime we've worked with — we won't sub under one we haven't.
Engineers in Austin, on US Central business hours, with the documentation posture audit teams expect. No offshore handoffs, no rotating junior bench between sprints.
Section 508 in the design system. Audit logging in the data layer. Authority-to-Operate paperwork tracked alongside the sprint board, not produced in a panic the week of go-live.
The team that built it operates it. SLA-backed support, documented runbooks, and a knowledge transfer plan that doesn't require us to be on the phone in year three.
The fastest way to waste an agency's procurement cycle is to pretend we do everything. We don't.
We'll happily review one and tell you whether the scope is buildable. We won't ghostwrite the requirements you'll later hold a vendor to.
If we've worked with the prime before, we'll team. If not, we'd rather walk than sign onto a delivery plan we haven't read.
We can build to a FedRAMP-Moderate posture and accelerate ATO paperwork. We won't quote a control catalog timeline we can't actually meet.
No staff-aug-by-the-seat, no rotating junior bench. If you need a butts-in-seats vendor, we'll send you toward one we trust.
No discovery deck. No 47-page proposal. Tell us what you're building and we'll come back within 48 hours with a real technical read.
