Federal Regulatory Agency Agility

Modernizing government with agility – minimizing the risk.

How does a federal agency modernize using agile products and services without risking the farm? From the inside, outward.

High-risk, high-reward gambits might fly in the commercial sector. But when it comes to mission-critical public services banking regulation and insurance, the federal government has no margin for error.

So, at Macro Solutions, we’re bringing the quality and velocity benefits of agile product development and services to modernizing government agencies in ways that maximize success rates while minimizing cost and risk.

Agile from the “inside, out” means fostering broad community support by engaging team members with a daily rhythm, agile ceremonies, tailoring processes and parameters on a micro scale, and guiding continuous process improvement from all stakeholders, at all levels.

In fact, for one banking insurance agency, we delivered agile service and application development transitions for 150 mission-critical project teams across the country—including an entire service organization—on-time and on-budget in fewer than 90 days.
