Deploying Defense

For years, we've supplied organizations throughout the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Armed Forces with the advanced IT solutions and services needed to support their global missions and information requirements - even as the Department has undergone sweeping changes. Today, the DoD's traditional war-fighting and deterrence missions have evolved to include peacekeeping, humanitarian relief, and homeland defense, while including the accelerated transformation to network-centric warfare.

These challenges require attention to detail while keeping projects on time and on budget - challenges that we are accustomed to supporting for a growing number of solutions.  With worldwide program experience and international presence, our teams are organized to help you deliver today's technology solutions.

Federal. Our IT program experience stretches across the entire federal landscape:

Department of Veterans Affairs * Social Security * Agriculture * Commerce * Job Corps * Interior * Energy * Treasury * U.S. House of Representatives * and more

State and Local. Our solutions and services translate directly to the needs of state and local government. The Commonwealth of Virginia, Maryland’s Frederick County, and the District of Columbia Public Schools are all clients.

Cross-Jurisdictional Solutions – Public Safety.  Often our IT solutions and applications must serve joint operations among city, county, state, and federal agencies. We’ve created networks and network solutions to link first responders and emergency response organizations across multiple levels of government. These have encompassed leading edge technologies, such as wide area voice environments, wireless, and integrated emergency communications.  

Securing National Security

It has been an incredibly rewarding experience to meet the IT requirements of the national security arena during the past 20 plus years. Our experience has given us unique insights into the challenges America’s national security agencies face.

The knowledge we’ve gained is essential to anticipating, understanding, and preparing for the changes ahead. Today’s unforgiving security environment allows no margin for error. Inspired solutions are needed now. That makes a trusted technology advisor and resource like Apptis invaluable.

Working in close partnership with national security organizations, we’re helping to tighten the security of America’s borders … ensure efficient, secure commerce and travel across these borders … and support more effective, anti-terrorism strategies. We provide full lifecycle solutions and services for the U.S. Departments of State, Homeland Security, and Justice, including:

  • Border crossing management

Travel Document Issuance System (TDIS).  We developed and continue to support the Department of State’s TDIS. This enterprise passport management system processes 10.5 million passport applications a year. To accommodate post-9/11 security requirements, we modernized the TDIS as well as the supporting computing environment.

Electronic Passport Systems. Our people play a key role in the Department of State’s electronic passport initiative. Computer chips containing personal information, biometric data, and PKI/PKD security, electronic passports will prevent fraud and enhance coordination with international and domestic security networks.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection.  Through this blanket purchase agreement with the Department of Homeland Security, we develop, supply, and deploy solutions for border crossing protection systems.

Key International Technical Standards.  Working with the Department of State, we help give the U.S. a technical voice on key international standards committees. We’ve helped guide decisions on international communication, security, and cryptography issues, the use of contactless chips in travel documents and methods for encoding personal and biometric data in these chips.
