The Problem
Stuck with outdated legacy systems — or no systems at all.
You know the feeling. Legacy technology that should have been replaced years ago. Critical processes running on spreadsheets and email chains. And the consultants? They deploy an army of junior resources and promise digital transformation in 18 months.
Legacy systems that won't die
Critical processes run on outdated technology because replacing it feels too risky or too expensive. Federal IT modernization keeps getting pushed to next year.
Spreadsheets holding everything together
No real system — just manual processes, workarounds, and institutional knowledge that walks out the door.
Intelligence without action
Reports and dashboards that don't connect to the systems that could act on them.
Siloed systems everywhere
Technology implemented in isolation that was never integrated. Data doesn't flow. Decisions don't trigger actions.
There's a better way.
Our Approach
90 Days to Value
We believe the fastest path to transformation is a series of small, focused wins — each one proving value in 90 days or less.
01
Weeks 1–2
Find It
Not every problem is worth solving first. Our framework identifies the highest-impact opportunity — the workflow, the bottleneck, the manual process that's costing you the most. We find the win worth chasing.
02
Weeks 3–6
Prove It
Rapid proof of concept consulting — working software, not slide decks. You see real results before making a bigger commitment. If it doesn't work, you'll know before you've spent the budget.
03
Weeks 7–12
Ship It
From POC to production. Small senior teams, focused execution, measurable outcomes. One workflow solved. One problem eliminated. Real value delivered.
04
Ongoing
Scale It
One win becomes a foundation. We expand to the next highest-impact process, roll out to additional teams, and compound each 90-day cycle into real transformation across your organization.
Each cycle builds on the last. That's how small wins become enterprise-wide transformation.
What We Do
Solve the problem. Prove it works. Then scale.
We start with your problem — not a platform. Whether you need intelligent automation, predictive analytics, or systems that finally talk to each other, we find the right solution for your organization's size, complexity, and budget.
Automate Complex Processes
Decision & Workflow
Replace manual handoffs, paper approvals, and disconnected processes with intelligent workflows that move work forward — routing decisions, managing cases, and handling exceptions automatically so your team focuses on what matters.
Predictive Analytics & Data Engineering
Intelligence & Data
Stop building reports no one reads. Our data engineering team connects analytics, AI, and predictive models directly to the systems that can act on them — so data-driven decisions happen automatically instead of sitting in dashboards.
Platform Integration & System Orchestration
Integration & Orchestration
Your platforms don't talk to each other. Data doesn't flow. A decision in one system doesn't trigger action in another. Our system integration consulting connects your enterprise platforms so they operate as one — eliminating manual handoffs and data re-entry across your legacy system landscape.
Intelligence-to-Action: The Stratosphere Difference
Most consulting firms build analytics that never reach operations. Others automate workflows blind to data. We connect both — so predictive analytics trigger workflow automation, your actions generate better data, and the whole system gets smarter over time. This is what makes us an alternative to big consulting firms.
Whether you're a 50-person state agency modernizing paper processes or a Fortune 500 optimizing a multi-platform ecosystem — we start the same way: understand the problem, find the fit-for-purpose solution, and prove it works before you scale.

Why Stratosphere
Small teams. Senior people. Real results.
Our mission is to make organizations more efficient, work more meaningful, and engagement more impactful.
Our team won't outnumber your team
Our teams are small and senior. No bench-warming junior resources learning on your dime. Everyone on a Stratosphere team ships.
We prove it before you commit
Most engagements start with a big contract and a hope. We start with a proof of concept. You see what's possible before the budget is spent.
We have a framework
We've done this before — in some of the most complex technology environments in government. We know what works, what's a distraction, and how to find the highest-impact opportunity fast.
We're builders, not advisors
We don't write reports about what you should do. We build the systems that solve the problem. Working software, not slide decks.
We right-size the solution
We'll never sell you a platform you don't need. If your existing tools can solve the problem, we'll make them work harder. If they can't, we'll find what fits — your organization, your budget, your timeline.
