CivicActions, Inc.

About Us

CivicActions works to transform government digital services through agile practices, modern technologies, user centered design, and a culture of learning and collaboration. We are committed to defining how human needs will be met through the services we help build. And we believe that trust, empathy, and communication are the foundation of a successful partnership with government.

To help agencies deliver useful, accessible services to the public, we design and develop technology systems that are scalable, flexible, and secure. We help identify the balance between business and user needs, and establish processes that set the stage for lasting success. It’s our goal to shake up the norm by sharing our work openly, collaborating with the digital service community, and advocating for practices that put people first.

Our competencies include:

Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) Development
DevOps
Security and Compliance
Education Services (Training)
Support and Helpdesk
Content and Learning Management Systems
