StudioCIO Engagements

Federal agencies have quickly adapted processes amid the response to COVID-19, and the government contracting community is looking ahead at how it will change or adapt in the future.

Technology is coming into increasing focus for both combatting the virus and supporting the tech-dependent environment that comes with increased telework. At the heart of these efforts is data sharing and the processing capabilities that come with data analytics, like artificial intelligence or machine learning. Government leaders discuss how they’re thinking about these technologies right now and in the future for their agencies.

HCD use cases and success stories were discussed, and the principles and tactics of human-centered design and customer experience were explored in this virtual event. Customer journey mapping, CX measurement, and examples of how to implement these principles in your own design solutions — whether it's product, experience or systems - were also reviewed.

Telework induced by the COVID-19 pandemic forced federal agencies to pivot their IT modernization strategies. In 2021, emerging technologies like 5G and new approaches to IT like Agile are shaking up the way agencies tackle modernization. This event will draw insight from agencies and federal IT leaders at the cutting edge of IT modernization trends.

Join us for a discussion of how health IT advances are improving both patient care and the management of public health, including how new technologies are leading to better outcomes, healthcare interoperability, and crafting sophisticated responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Agencies are continuously updating their software development lifecycles and IT operations. More than ever, it’s critical for them to maintain a short timeframe during this process to improve workflows for optimized systems security and operational efficiencies. This includes updating legacy systems through collaborative teaming, and quickly modernizing and enhancing product-delivery capabilities using automation. Hear from agency leaders from the United States Air Force, the Department of Homeland Security, NASA and more about their mission-driven efforts to advance federal DevSecOps efforts.

As agencies continue modernizing their systems and capabilities, cloud computing, infrastructure and applications have become a critical piece of the puzzle. How can the government continue delivering to the nation in faster, more secure and modern ways? Hear from agency leaders about how they’re approaching cloud adoption to improve the way their agencies do business.

As agencies continue to modernize and move away from their legacy systems, how are they reshaping their IT infrastructure and leveraging data to transform their enterprise? Hear from top government IT leaders at the VA, DoD, and DHS about how they’re adopting cloud and data center infrastructure, strategies and capabilities to move their organizations toward the future.

With IT transformation projects underway across major federal agencies, guidance from U.S. policymakers is of increasingly vital importance for the development of public-facing services. GovernmentCIO Media & Research has brought together the top-ranking members of the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs and leadership from the Department of Veterans Affairs to discuss the ongoing revolution in veterans care, and how the agency’s modernization efforts are poised to improve the lives of millions of Americans. Topics will include the VA’s modernization strategy, digital services, and how the agency has ensured continuity of care amidst COVID-19.

What challenges and opportunities exist to modernize agency systems to secure the nation’s most critical IT operations amid COVID-19? Hear from cybersecurity leaders from the Department of Health and Human Services, Veterans Affairs, Defense Health Administration and more about how their agencies are strategically ramping up and scaling IT capabilities to monitor, meet and successfully prevent cyber threats.
