Health Agency

THE CHALLENGE:

With the recent COVID-19 pandemic, this agency requested that PVM urgently integrate mapping for the COVID-19 response.  Due to the direct impact of COVID-19 on the U.S., our team shifted focus promptly to provide additional enhancements and resources to collect COVID-19 cluster detection to display in a mapped format.

THE OUTCOME:

Despite a host of challenges—a substantial data migration which refocused PVM’s tasking, the infinite delay of the production deployment, and an unprecedented global pandemic—PVM continued to enrich the new environment and assist with COVID related enhancements by providing this public health agency state-of-the-art capabilities for exceeding mission success. 

All previously required tasks as well as new, urgent pandemic related work was and continues to be delivered to exceed quality expectations. 

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK:

Our work mapping COVID-19 outbreaks and enhancing the System for Enteric Disease Response, Investigation and Coordination (SEDRIC) platform was instrumental in the data modernization success for which the CDC SEDRIC project team was able to be formally recognized by winning the 2020 CDC NCEZID Honor Award for Information Technology.
