Solutions for the Public Sector

The need for improved data management is being increasingly recognized by the US public sector. Healthcare reform for state health and human service agencies, accountability and performance improvement for school districts, budget pressures driving cost savings, and a public expecting more transparency and efficiency in government ― all these factors and more, create an imperative for advanced data management and analytics.

Daman has delivered a wide range of solutions to the public sector that leverage our broad experience across data management and business intelligence (BI) and our detailed knowledge of related business areas. A sample of our solutions includes:

Data warehouse assessments and planning. For the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, we delivered the business rationale and justification used for procuring funding from CMS for the planned enterprise data warehouse initiative.

Architecture assessments and product planning. For the Teacher Retirement System of Texas, we evaluated possible data warehouse platforms and made recommendations for an appropriate architecture.

Implementations. For the Texas Education Agency, we built the data acquisition solution for the Pre K-16 data warehouse, or for DIR where we built security survey and related database infrastructure.

We understand the public sector.

Daman’s solutions reflect a deep understanding of the special context of public sector engagements, including:

• The limited risk tolerance of most agencies and the need to introduce change without introducing substantial, additional risk.
• Public sector constraints in the form of resources, funding and charters.
• The complexity of public sector environments along with the importance of legislative and political contexts and the need for agility in dealing with frequent changes.
• The complexity and diversity of stakeholders in public-sector projects, well beyond the typical range in the private sector.
• The impact of public sector initiatives, well beyond profitability on the lives of constituents.

With this understanding about the public sector context and our substantive public-private experience, Daman is in a unique position to deliver effective and appropriate solutions to our public sector client.
