Consultancy Acolyst Scores Contract With White House

A technology consultancy has won a contract to find and implement a legal case management system in the highest reaches of the federal government's executive branch.

Baltimore-based Acolyst started the work in the Executive Office of the President (EOP) this week, according to Valeh Nazemoff, the company's executive vice president and co-owner. She told CRN the project would take five years before the system is implemented.

The new system aims to streamline legal cases and efficiently manage workloads at various branches of the EOP that have their own general counsels. Acolyst will offer best practices guidance in these areas within the EOP's unique records management requirements, the company said in a statement. It will work on-site with end users, IT, and security personnel at the executive office buildings adjacent to The White House.

"We're very thrilled to have this opportunity," Nazemoff said. "We're hoping to leave a legacy."

Acolyst will also provide support for the system after it's installed, said Nazemoff, a 2016 CRN Women of the Channel honoree.
