Since its founding over a decade ago, Integris Applied has been the leading sourcing advisory firm focused on state CIOs and their organizations.  We have led our clients through some of the largest state government IT services procurements and transformation programs in the country, including the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR), the Georgia Technology Authority (GTA), and the Virginia Information Technologies Agency (VITA).

 

We have deep experience in assessing IT services cost, identifying opportunities for savings and service improvements, and collaboratively re-negotiating or re-sourcing contracts to create multi-party wins.  Our team has served as advisors, service providers, and government executives – which means we have seen these initiatives from all angles.  Along the way, we have developed new approaches to sourcing relationships, disentangled clients from complex contracts, and implemented transitions involving multiple procurements and multiple government agencies.

 

In recent years, we have worked with NASCIO to evolve the role of the state CIO through the concept of The State CIO Operating Model.  This study and associated artifacts cover the CIO as Broker model and the Four Forces of Government Change.

 

 

 

 

 


RESILIENT CONTRACTING

The COVID-19 Pandemic has made clear the importance of IT service resiliency.  But often the barriers to change are in contracts themselves.  Over the longer term, we expect clients will need to make changes to their contracting environment to support these new operating models.  Please read our latest article on resilient contracting.

If you’re attending #NASCIO20, make sure to catch the Deep Dive session with Nelson Moe and Jonathan Ozovek from VITA, John Hoffman from DIR, and Vishal Tulsian and Mark Forman of SAIC.  They discuss how the Multisourcing Service Integration (MSI) model helped them manage through the COVID-19 Pandemic.  Integris Applied was pleased to develop the MSI model in both of those states.
