D/B/A ARIEL PARTNERS

WHO WE ARE

WOSB and M/WBE founded in 2010 with ISO 9K, 20K, 27K, CMMI-DEV 3 and CMMI-SVC 3, we are an expert technology consulting, lean management and Agile transformation firm with a special focus on human centric design, DevSecOps, Kanban Flight Levels, and large-scale Agile governance.

CURRENT PROJECTS:

  • SSA OIG: Ariel has a prime contract to provide Agile Audit Support (AAS) for the Social Security Administration Office of the Inspector General (SSA OIG). We are providing a team of Agile coaches and technical experts to perform a thorough assessment of SSA’s large-scale Agile software projects and a review of SSA’s implementation of Agile and DevSecOps methods. The work will help improve SSA’s Agile processes, governance, and oversight and will inform OIG’s reports to US House Ways & Means Committee, Senate Finance Committee and the GAO.
  • USAF Agile/Jira Training: Ariel trained over 1100+ Air Force personnel in Jira Fundamentals & Advanced Jira features. Ariel’s training covers the fundamentals of Scrum, Kanban, Scaled and hybrid Agile approaches and demonstrates how Jira supports each of them through custom Jira configurations and selected plugins. The training environment includes highly realistic simulated data and covers topics such as dependency management, scoping, story mapping, estimation, project forecasting, metrics, and dashboards.
  • NYCHA: Ariel is providing technical and organizational process improvement expertise for the New York City Housing Authority Office of Information Technology . Our engagement is to improve delivery of services, improve productivity and reduce delays using selected lean, agile, and DevOps practices. Ariel is working with key NYCHA stakeholders to design and implement a new operating model that encompasses value stream mapping, redesigning workflows, creating visual transparency and aligning the right people to the right roles. The work is designed to place the voice of the customer at the center of all efforts to drive change and improvements. Our goals are to improve efficiency and productivity, laying the groundwork for future automation.
  • NYC DOHMH: For the next six years, Ariel Partners is supporting the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) as a prime to maintain and enhance the eVital system. eVital prepares and certifies vital records including birth, death, marriage, and divorce records for millions of New Yorkers. This system is operational 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to aid in connecting hospitals, courts, funeral homes, insurance companies with state, local and federal agencies. It is crucial for the provisioning of essential services to New York citizens during life events as mandated by law. The eVital improvements program is a key component of the agency’s modernization program and is in direct support of the NYC mayoral imperative to provide services that are more secure and user friendly.
  • Zearn Math Online: We are setting up inter-connected Kanban systems for 15 teams, 4 value streams, and for the overall corporate strategy to give the CEO a birds-eye view of the big picture; tying strategic objectives directly to execution and establishing flow-based metrics while encouraging innovation at every level.

SOME OF OUR QUALIFICATIONS INCLUDE:

  • FBI CODIS. We helped the FBI reduce their costs by 30% while increasing quality by moving the 20+ year CODIS program to Agile/Scrum and to the AWS cloud;
  • NYC DSS. We created a cloud-native reference architecture and DevSecOps implementation for a $20B NYC Health and Human Services agency to move to accelerate system development;
  • HBO Digital Products. We supported HBO’s Kubernetes-based AWS DevOps pipeline, which added several million simultaneous streaming sessions in less than 0.5 seconds during the season seven finale of “Game of Thrones.”

WHAT DIFFERENTIATES US?

  • Coaching & Training: We offer executive and team coaching and training for highly in-demand skills including Agile for Leaders and Executives, Site Reliability Engineering, MicroServices, Kanban, SAFe, Scrum, Human Centered Design, Jira, VersionOne, BDD/TDD, and AI/ML.
  • Kanban Flight Levels: We are excited to be the first East Coast-Based Training Organization for this lightweight and innovative new scaled Agile framework that connects strategy to execution and addresses the entire enterprise—at a fraction of the overhead of competing approaches.
  • Legacy Modernization: We have a proven track record of safely and incrementally modernizing legacy systems, safeguarded by automated acceptance tests.
  • Human Centered Design: We turn user research into testable hypotheses, incorporating lean startup principles to identify the most important problem to solve- FAST.
  • Agile Governance: We help organizations establish governance and oversight for their Agile programs, eliminating duplicative efforts, establishing scorecards with leading metrics, and a deeper understanding of risk.
  • Test Automation: We provide sustainable and cost-effective test automation practices, even in complex legacy environments.
  • Agile Software Development: We are experts at rapidly building complex systems by working smarter, not harder. We leverage cutting edge approaches including model-storming, affinity grouping, progressive refinement, risk reduction spikes and aggressive de-scoping;
  • Agile/DevSecOps: We can make your process faster and safer, leveraging more than 20 years of experience across every major technology stack. We know what works, where, when, and how.
