WHAT WE DO

Civin specializes in working with state and local governments and other public sector agencies to build data-driven programs that deliver lasting value. To do this, our approach is to use short-term, focused engagements to help our clients expand their own internal capabilities, freeing them from dependence on high-priced vendors whose projects never seem to end. These engagements enable clients to better understand their data, develop plans for what to do with it, and successfully deliver on those goals.

Data Audits & Inventories

Our team works with clients to understand their mission-critical data sources and applications, promote data quality, mitigate risks, improve reliability, and identify new opportunities to boost the impact of their data programs.
