About the Firm
Technology work for local government.
Altioras Civic serves municipalities and other public institutions. We work with the budget cycles, procurement rules, records obligations, and staffing limits that shape municipal technology decisions.
Municipal focus
We plan around the decisions council or board members, administrators, finance staff, and department leads need to make.
Vendor neutrality
We assess options against your requirements, operating costs, and staff capacity. Before a selection begins, ask us to document any vendor relationship or potential conflict.
Scope and progress
We define the scope, responsibilities, and records for each phase so agency staff can track decisions and review what was delivered.
Support after handoff
Systems outlive administrations. Staff need instructions, ownership, and support after a project ends.
Who We Serve
Serving the departments residents depend on.
A finance system affects payroll and reporting. Utility billing affects customer accounts. Records systems affect public requests. We plan changes with the departments responsible for each service.
Cities & Towns
In cities and towns, technology decisions often need council approval and must fit the annual budget. We account for both when planning the work.
Counties
County departments have different needs and reporting requirements. We define who approves a change, who uses it, and who maintains it.
Special Districts
Water, sanitation, transit, and hospital districts often have small teams and specific reporting requirements. We plan around the staff available to run the system.
Public Utilities
Billing, work orders, and field operations must keep running during a system change. We plan testing and cutover around those services.
Public purchasing
Plan for public purchasing from the start.
Budget and schedule
We check the fiscal year, capital plan, and available funding before setting a project schedule.
Requirements and evaluation
We document scope, requirements, and evaluation criteria for agency and procurement review.
Grant documentation
When grant funds are involved, we identify the reporting and documentation requirements before work begins.
Cooperative purchasing
We review whether an available cooperative contract fits the work and your agency's purchasing rules.
How we work
How we decide what to change.
See how we review a workflow, test options including AI where appropriate, and document the work for the staff who will own it.
Explore our approach ↗Check the purchasing path before work begins.
The right process depends on the work and your agency's rules. Involve procurement early so the scope and schedule reflect the required approvals.
Purchasing requirements
Confirm the approval process and any solicitation thresholds with your procurement team.
Cooperative contracts
If your agency allows them, check whether an available contract covers the proposed work.
Existing agreements
Ask procurement whether an existing agreement can be used for the scope you need.
Formal solicitation
When an RFP is required, define the requirements and evaluation criteria before inviting proposals.
