the challenge

Reimagining a fragmented ecosystem.

The Department of Education operated across multiple legacy CMS platforms, siloed program sites, and inconsistent user experiences. Years of incremental updates had created duplication, governance gaps, and technical debt that made publishing inefficient and innovation difficult.

 

A long-standing modernization effort had stalled, leaving stakeholders without a unified architecture or clear path forward. The Department needed to consolidate platforms, simplify content management, and deliver a cohesive, accessible experience, all without disrupting mission-critical operations.
