Driving innovations to sustainable technology
Different information systems present challenges that require unique technical solutions to meet program missions and needs.
We understand the mission objectives, project goals and desired impact of our partners and customers which enables us to provide comprehensive and customized solutions.
Systems Integration
Whether it’s designing an infrastructure that meets the needs of your national health strategy or creating an enterprise wide analytics platform, integrating legacy, on-premise, hybrid, cloud, and external SaaS systems can be a daunting task. Understanding the nuances to combine disparate systems goes beyond data integration and interoperability. Most organizations have a vast mix of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products, a mix of databases across platforms, multiple server and enterprise operating systems, along with in-house built custom solutions. Our team has proficiency across many technologies (Java, .Net, JavaScript frameworks, Python) and cloud hosting environments, such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Compute (GCP). Linking complex data from varied sources, whether leading third-party COTS products or custom solutions with database backends (SQL Server, Oracle, mySQL, pSQL, etc.), we take an engineering-focused approach to ensure the resiliency of complex integrated systems. We support our customers to streamline integrations, improve scalability, and ensure security and compliance across systems, all with a user-friendly and seamless experience.
Enterprise Architecture
A properly designed and implemented Enterprise Architecture serves as the foundation for applications, data, and infrastructure in a holistic and integrated framework. Understanding the relationship between applications, systems, and infrastructure to core business processes ensures mission critical goals can be met. Our team of experienced architects will design a customized architecture blueprint that meets your organization’s specific needs. We consider various aspects, including business processes, data integration, application portfolios, infrastructure, and security to create a comprehensive architecture that supports your organization’s operations. When considering an overall Enterprise Architecture, our team takes into account key aspects, such as technology stacks, governance and compliance, security and privacy, and integration/interoperability considerations. A properly planned Enterprise Architecture is never a finished product, so our team will future proof, to the extent possible, by evaluating technology and trends, such as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, along with continuous improvement through ongoing support and monitoring to meet evolving needs.
Compliance
Today’s modern world is based on cloud architectures requiring rapid adaptation and support to meet evolving customer needs. New methods of application development, including containerized deployment, DevOps, Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), and serverless architectures are becoming the norm. While many have figured out Agile, DevOps, and cloud architectures, true application agility and speed of delivery is often held up by the massive effort of meeting security compliance mandates (e.g. FISMA, NIST, FedRamp, HIPAA, GDPR) and achieving Authority to Operate (ATO).
We engage with our customers to provide compliance as a service and to establish a technical foundation to “Shift Left” compliance efforts to ensure continuous compliance.
Our team of engineers will engage with you to integrate multiple security scanning and testing tools into the DevOps CI/CD software development pipeline to automate vulnerability scanning, quality assessment, Section 508, and other required testing to meet cyber standards and compliance. We build customized hardened server images that include all security mandated configurations and endpoint security sensors integrated with SOC operations. Using Cloud management techniques, we customize Cloud Services across your infrastructure to allow only approved and authorized compute, network, and storage configured system images to be used by personnel when building out Cloud and application container resources.
