Federal web cloud hosting experience

CGI is highly experienced in hosting, developing and transitioning complex federal sites and applications. For example:

  • In just six weeks, CGI built and deployed FederalReporting.gov in a virtualized hosting environment to handle Recovery Act funding recipient reporting
  • In just six weeks, CGI built and deployed a cloud-based portal to support a major health reform initiative. The portal, which includes data from more than 3,000 commercial and public sector organizations, enables citizens to conduct real-time comparisons so they can make more informed healthcare decisions.
