KITEWIRE is SharpCloud's preferred technology provider for US government

SharpCloud Software and KITEWIRE are working together to bring transformational technologies to the US Government to help its organizations achieve “full value” from their workforce, resource investments, and leadership.

SharpCloud for US Government

Often challenged by legacy IT policies and guidance, many US Government organizations lack the modern cloud-based tools enjoyed by the commercial sector to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of their workforce. KITEWIRE solves this problem by working with Government organizations to integrate SharpCloud Software into accredited environments that support government and military requirements.

With a background in developing and fielding security applications for the Department of Justice, Department of Defense, White House, and commercial banking, KITEWIRE is uniquely able to find turnkey solutions for government customers looking to upgrade to SharpCloud’s, modern, data-driven, strategic framework; empowering their entire workforce.

As Todd Nacapuy, Chief Information Officer for the Hawaii Office of Enterprise Technology Services (ETS), recently stated, “SharpCloud is changing the way we run government.”

Re-imagining Knowledge Management

Knowledge management processes and tools have remained static for the past several decades within the government with very little change coming from the larger commercial technology providers traditionally providing solutions to government agencies. These legacy technology solutions are based around supporting the lowest common denominator of end user and as such rarely ever account for the unique elements that make each government organization special or different.

Using SharpCloud’s 100% customizable environment, KITEWIRE is working to help government agencies “Re-Imagine” their knowledge management from static, data repositories into dynamic, collaborative environments. Within SharpCloud, government employees and teams are able to visualize their organizational content within a strategic framework that automatically adapts to shifting requirements and organizational constraints.

In a recent 2017 effort, KITEWIRE worked in partnership with the Army’s Future Studies Group, an organization that directly supports the Chief of Staff of the Army, to develop an entirely new ecosystem using SharpCloud for developing and communicating strategic content to Army Senior Leadership. This environment provides the flexibility and depth necessary to rapidly adjust to the complexity of communicating the Army’s strategy as it seeks to modernize itself for the years to come.

Bridging Commercial and Government Strategic Frameworks

As a trusted partner for both government and commercial customers of SharpCloud, KITEWIRE is uniquely positioned to leverage its professional experience in helping both groups benefit from the latest technology, models and methods in strategic planning and sharing these best practices between the private and public sectors.

Working from over a decade of experience in developing strategic solutions for commercial partners in healthcare, energy, transportation, communication, and manufacturing, KITEWIRE is able to rapidly identify the right mix of technologies and integration options for its government customers looking to find a path forward. This experience decreases the time required to implement solutions, as well as minimizes risks by identifying proven approaches and methods that have application across both, the public and private, sectors.

Because commercial investments in cloud-based technologies and solutions are driving the state-of-the-art, KITEWIRE has been able to leverage its experiences delivering leading edge solutions to commercial companies to support government customers as well. As a trusted technology provider, KITEWIRE enables government organizations to adopt modern tools for its workforce and effectively implement positive technology refresh cycles that optimize government capabilities while minimizing expenses.

Finding the Yes

One of the challenges facing many government agencies interested in adopting new technologies and capabilities is the difficulties of working through the processes and regulations involved with implementing IT systems. Having a trusted partner that understands the complexity of this environment and can help navigate through the process, is critical to the success of many government agencies being able to explore new tools such as SharpCloud.

By their very nature, government processes are deliberate and intentional. These qualities often make them slow to adapting to new or emerging technologies within the IT space. KITEWIRE uses its experience working with IT departments from across the entire federal, state and local government to simplify and expedite the process of organizations integrating SharpCloud into their workforce. Having an experienced partner, who knows how to get to a “yes” is one of the many reasons why KITEWIRE continues to be SharpCloud’s preferred provider to the US government.

“KITEWIRE was an instrumental partner in allowing me to communicate the complexities of our technology wargames in support of the Chief of Staff of the Army using SharpCloud’s powerful visualization environment. KITEWIRE’s ability to deliver a customized solution, unique to our goals, and methodologies enabled my office to rapidly respond to critical requirements for the Department of Defense.” - Former Director, Army Research and Development Technology Wargaming
