👋 Talk to a GovTech expert.
Trusted and top rated tech team
Legacy government systems block digital transformation
Monolithic applications built decades ago can’t integrate with modern services, manual processes delay citizen access to benefits, and security vulnerabilities create compliance risks. Replacing entire systems creates unacceptable disruption to public services. We implement GovTech solutions with incremental modernization strategies, Zero Trust security architecture, and accessibility compliance so agencies deliver digital services reliably while legacy systems transition gradually without operational downtime.
Our capabilities include:
- Legacy system modernization and migration
- Zero Trust security architecture implementation
- Accessibility compliance (WCAG, Section 508)
- API-first modular application development
- Cloud infrastructure for government workloads
- AI governance and ethical framework implementation
Who we support
Big-bang system replacements risk service disruptions agencies can’t afford. We help governments modernize incrementally, deploying new capabilities gradually, strengthening security, and ensuring uninterrupted public services.
Agencies with Legacy Dependencies
Your critical applications run on decades-old infrastructure that lacks modern security, requires specialized staff knowledge, and can't integrate with cloud services. Migration carries political and operational risk, replacement costs exceed budgets, and citizens depend on continuous service availability.
Organizations Meeting Compliance
Your applications must meet accessibility standards by April 2026, implement Zero Trust architecture, and maintain data sovereignty. Current systems lack compliance documentation, security audits reveal vulnerabilities, and manual processes prevent meeting regulatory deadlines.
Governments Adopting AI and Automation
Your agency wants AI for tax processing, grant matching, and citizen services but lacks governance frameworks. Existing systems can't support machine learning integration, ethical AI guidelines remain undefined, and staff need training on responsible AI deployment.
Ways to engage
We offer a wide range of engagement models to meet our clients’ needs. From hourly consultation to fully managed solutions, our engagement models are designed to be flexible and customizable.
Staff Augmentation
Get access to on-demand product and engineering team talent that gives your company the flexibility to scale up and down as business needs ebb and flow.

FAQs about our GovTech development services
How do you modernize without service disruption?
We use the Strangler Fig pattern, gradually replacing legacy components with new services while both systems run in parallel. Traffic routes incrementally to modernized services, and rollback mechanisms ensure public services continue if issues arise.
What's your approach to accessibility compliance?
We integrate accessibility testing into CI/CD pipelines using automated tools and manual screen reader validation. Our engineers follow the Trusted Tester methodology and ensure WCAG 2.1 AA and Section 508 conformance before deployment.
How do you implement Zero Trust for government?
We deploy identity-centric security with continuous verification at every access point, implement least-privilege policies through role-based access controls, and establish micro-segmentation preventing lateral movement across networks.
Can you work with our FedRAMP requirements?
Yes. We deploy infrastructure on AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, or other FedRAMP-authorized platforms, implement required security controls, maintain audit logging, and document compliance evidence for authorization packages.
How do you establish AI governance frameworks?
We implement model monitoring for bias detection, establish explainability requirements for automated decisions, create accountability documentation for audits, and align AI deployment with NIST AI Risk Management Framework standards.
What's typical timeline for legacy modernization?
Depends on system complexity and modernization scope. Initial assessment takes 2-4 weeks, pilot service extraction 8-12 weeks, and full migration 6-18 months with incremental releases maintaining continuous operations throughout.
