Government

We design, build, and maintain websites for federal, state, and local government.

Our government work runs from the Social Security Administration and the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission to state and local work across Virginia. Accessibility, security, and reporting your leadership can trust are requirements here, and we build to them.

Design, UX & Accessibility

Accessibility compliance your agency can document and defend.

Government sites answer to Section 508, WCAG, and ADA Title II, and to the audits that enforce them. We treat compliance as a design input rather than a review step: contrast, focus order, keyboard paths, and plain language are decided in the wireframes and verified before anything ships. The result is a site every visitor can use, with the records to show it.

See our design services

What it covers

Section 508 and WCAG 2.1 AA conformance, ADA Title II readiness, plain-language content structure, accessible forms and documents, assistive technology testing, and VPAT and conformance documentation for your compliance office.

How we get there

Designers and developers work from the same accessibility checklist starting day one. Testing happens with real assistive technology, and findings are documented as we go, so the conformance records exist before anyone asks for them.

Development

Single sign-on, government design standards, and code written for review.

Government development has its own standards, and we build inside them. Where the U.S. Web Design System applies, we follow it. Sign-in works with your existing identity setup, whether that is SAML, Active Directory, Login.gov, or PIV/CAC, and every line of code is written knowing a security review will read it.

See our development services

What it covers

CMS and application development, single sign-on and identity integration, U.S. Web Design System implementation, migrations that preserve records and URLs, and documentation written for handoff and audit.

How we get there

Changes arrive as focused pull requests, and documentation is written alongside the code. Handoffs, audits, and continuity of operations stay simple because the paper trail already exists.

What it looks like

USWDS-aligned builds
Records + URL preservation
Audit-ready documentation

Managed Infrastructure

We keep your site secure, patched, and online.

Government sites draw constant probing, automated and otherwise. We manage hosting with security as the standing priority: patches applied on a documented schedule, traffic watched for abuse, access held to least privilege, and backups tested before they are needed. When something needs attention, we handle it and send you the report.

What it covers

We can host you or manage the environment you already run. Either way the work includes security patching on a documented cadence, monitoring and alerting, DDoS and abuse protection, least-privilege access controls, and tested backup and recovery.

How we get there

Most issues get found and fixed before the public sees them. For anything bigger, you get the fix, then the written post-incident report to file or forward.

Digital Strategy

Analytics that answer your program's questions.

We set up measurement around what the public comes to your site to do: renew a license, submit a form, look up office hours. Then we read the data with you in plain language, within the privacy rules that apply to public agencies. You learn what is working, what is failing, and what to fix first.

See our digital strategy services

What it covers

Analytics set up to respect public-sector privacy requirements, task-completion and service-delivery tracking, dashboards for program staff, plain-language monthly reporting, and the search presence that keeps your official site the first result for your services.

How we get there

We define the handful of outcomes your program is measured on, track those, and trim the rest. Reports arrive with a walkthrough, so the numbers mean the same thing to your web team and your leadership.
