Federal government agencies are facing a growing mandate to transform their technology operations to provide a better experience for citizens, stakeholders, and employees. For the last few decades, challenges implementing timely and relevant technology solutions have limited agencies' ability to modernize operations. Atlas believes that digital can help organizations leap into the next generation by providing customer-centric, digitally enabled solutions.

HHS Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality: Data Tool Harmonization

Client: Health and Human Services (HHS)

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) provides several data tools and summary data tables that serve as essential resources about health care providers’ systems and insurance plans for researchers, journalists, and government agencies alike. Atlas partnered with AHRQ to harmonize the user interfaces (UI) and basic functionality of these data tools. The Atlas Team used a human-centered design approach to understand the unique and varied needs of users and stakeholders and then conducted a design thinking workshop to synthesize the findings. Finally, the team implemented agile and scrum methodologies to develop iterations of the prototype for users to quickly see progress and provide feedback.

Atlas’ suite of digital and technology offerings is designed to help clients realize the benefits of digital solutions. From helping our clients define their digital strategy to implementing a cloud-based customer portal, Atlas can help you determine how to transform and modernize in the digital era.
