Modern government requires a modern technology foundation.
Howard County continues to invest in modern technology to support a growing community, improve government operations, and deliver responsive digital services to residents.
AGT partnered with Howard County to advance enterprise modernization across critical technology environments. The engagement brought together cloud engineering, application modernization, cybersecurity, systems integration, data analytics, automation, and secure software delivery to create a stronger foundation for County operations and continued digital transformation.
Rather than modernizing technology in isolation, AGT focused on connecting platforms, applications, data, security, and delivery practices into a scalable enterprise environment capable of supporting evolving government needs.
Legacy complexity, no room for downtime
Howard County needed to modernize legacy technology while continuing to deliver essential public services without interruption.
Aging applications, evolving cybersecurity requirements, disconnected data and systems, growing cloud adoption, and increasing expectations for accessible digital services created a complex modernization environment.
The County needed an enterprise approach that could modernize applications, strengthen security, improve integration and reporting, automate internal processes, and increase platform reliability, while maintaining government security and compliance requirements.
