Agencies move at government speed. We don’t.

Most consultancies treat state and federal IT engagements as a way to bill hours. We treat them as programmes — long-running, accountable to citizens, accountable to legislative cycles. The difference shows up in continuity (we send the same senior to the same programme for years, not a rotating cast), in domain depth (we know what passes at a Curam steering committee because we’ve sat in dozens), and in delivery posture (we take fixed-fee scope with milestone payments, not open-ended T&M).

What’s Included

Curam and Merative platform expertise — implementation, configuration, integration, modernization. Certified developers, programme architects.

Eligibility and benefits modernization — TANF, SNAP, Medicaid, child support, child welfare. Legacy replacement, integration with state ESBs.

Case management systems — design, build, deploy, integrate. CMS-aligned where applicable.

Data and analytics — programme reporting, federal compliance reporting, fraud and abuse detection, performance dashboards.

System modernization — strangler-fig migration of mainframe and aging-tier systems to modern stacks. Zero-downtime patterns where required.

Compliance and security for public-sector contexts — IRS Pub 1075, CMS MARS-E, FedRAMP, StateRAMP. Coordinated with the Cybersecurity practice.

DELIVERY MODEL

Assess, plan, deliver, sustain.

  1. Assess (3–6 weeks)

    Current-state architecture, programme posture, gap analysis against modernization goals.

  2. Plan (4–8 weeks)

    Phased modernization roadmap, sequencing, risk register, RFP support if needed.

  3. Deliver (12–104 weeks)

    Phased implementation. Citizens see continuous improvement, not a big-bang go-live. Scope-dependent timeline.

  4. Sustain (ongoing)

    Production support, programme office support, federal reporting, audit support.

Outcomes

  • A modernization roadmap your CIO can defend to legislative oversight and federal partners.
  • Phased implementations citizens see continuous benefit from, not a big-bang risk event.
  • Programme continuity: the senior in the kickoff is the senior in the year-three steering committee.
