Performance Results

US Department of Agriculture

KYM currently helps USDA transition from a waterfall to a lean-agile approach using the essential Scale Agile Framework (SAFe). We lead the Agile Release Train (ART) and deliver close to 100% of our story points on time for every program increment (PI) delivering high quality working software that meets business needs. Our delivery focuses on the following values:

Clear Values – we set clear expectations for all participants and ask them and their leadership to commit to them making them publicly available to all program staff;

Exposing Impediments Quickly and Visibly – our RTE and scrum masters use methods to quickly identify impediments and make them visible to everyone on the program;

Reflect, Learn, and Adapt – in each PI, we reserve time to consider what happened, evaluate it, and make changes to improve enabling the ART to function effectively and continually improve.

Our team supports major IT systems implementation for USDA – and provide Agile coaches, Release Train Engineers (RTEs), Scrum Masters (SM), and Product Management / Owner specialists.

Department of The Army

KYM currently supports the Army Declassification Directorate through the provision of information management / information access services.

We provide automatic and systematic declassification; governance; data entry; and transportation service support services. We review records in all formats – paper, electronic, microform, photographs, maps – and our experts are all required to be certified as Department of Energy Historical Records Restricted Data Reviewers.

Our Subject Matter Experts are trained in accordance with the exacting standards of the Army, Department of Defense, and National Archives and Records Administration and our corporate leadership has 20-plus years’ experience leading other DoD and Federal Civilian declassification, FOIA, and records management efforts.

US Department of Homeland Security

KYM recently supported the Office of the Chief Data Officer (OCDO) for US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), delivering data driven solutions and helping foster data literacy across the agency.

We helped USCIS manage and convert agency data into actionable information. We provided internal and external communications and web services support; data governance, data standards, and data quality support; data visualization, business intelligence / dashboard development; data science and engineering, and network analytics; and program / project management of the overall program.

During our tenure we helped our customer transition from strategy development and static “placemats” to delivering operational capabilities that synthesize and dynamically deliver mission critical information to mission users and agency leadership.
