Government technology services
Public services that keep moving while systems modernize
ABM Technologies supports federal, state and local teams modernizing legacy systems, integrating agency data and delivering accessible services to residents and staff.
- Who we work with
- Technology leaders, program managers, digital-service teams, enterprise architects
- Typical engagements
- Legacy modernization, systems integration, workflow automation, managed operations
- Accessibility posture
- Section 508 / WCAG 2.2 AA as our delivery target
Main challenges
What makes government modernization hard
Systems that cannot pause
Benefits, licensing and permitting programs run continuously, so modernization has to happen alongside live service delivery.
Data locked in silos
Agencies hold overlapping records in systems that were never designed to exchange information, making reporting slow and manual.
Accessibility obligations
Digital services must work for residents using assistive technology, on older devices and on limited connectivity.
Procurement and continuity
Work must fit funding cycles, documentation requirements and eventual handover to in-house or successor teams.
Relevant capabilities
Capabilities applied to public-sector programs
Legacy-system modernization
Incremental replacement or wrapping of aging systems of record, sequenced to keep programs running throughout.

Common use cases
Where engagements usually begin
- Replacing a mainframe-era case management system without interrupting benefit delivery
- Consolidating resident-facing forms into a single accessible service portal
- Standing up integration between an agency system of record and a statewide identity platform
- Automating a multi-department licensing or permitting approval workflow
- Building a reporting layer for program performance and oversight requests
- Taking over support and improvement of a platform an outgoing vendor built
Delivery approach
How we run the work
Understand
We map the systems, the people who depend on them and the constraints you actually work within — procurement, policy, budget cycles.
Design
We agree the target architecture and the user experience, then prove the risky parts early with prototypes rather than documents.
Build & Integrate
Delivery happens in reviewable increments, with integration to existing systems treated as part of the build, not a final step.
Operate & Improve
We monitor, support and keep improving what is live, and we document it so your team can run it without us.
Security, privacy & accessibility
How we handle security, privacy and Section 508 accessibility
What we practice today, described plainly, as working standards rather than formal certifications.
Accessibility built into delivery
Semantic markup, keyboard operability, visible focus and assistive-technology testing during build — with findings tracked like any other defect.
Security practices
Least-privilege access, dependency and code scanning, and change control agreed with your security team. No certification claim is made here.
Resident data handling
Collect only what the service needs, define retention explicitly and document where data moves between systems.
Documentation and continuity
Architecture decisions, runbooks and handover material produced as work proceeds, so continuity does not depend on us.
