Momentum provides unparalleled performance and adaptability through advanced technical architecture, integration of cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) and automation, and a steadfast commitment to user-centric design. Our focus on automation, data analytics and intuitive workflows empowers agencies to achieve their goals with greater agility and precision.
CGI enables this innovation through the consistent advancement of Momentum’s technical architecture, enabling the product to take advantage of new technologies and capabilities to maximize efficiency for our customers.
We achieve this through multiple factors, including an emphasis on open source and cloud native technologies from industry leading open-source foundations such as the Linux Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF).
We maintain a philosophy of automation first, gaining operational efficiencies and providing faster cadence to bringing evolution into the product.

- Intelligent automation application
-
Includes optimized generation of large amounts of data, intelligent automated data recommendations and automatic filing of data.
- Technical enablement and adaptability to meet federal regulations and mandates
-
Enhanced zero trust immutable architecture mitigates security risk by enabling improved common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE) scanning, and centrally hardened communication.
Momentum offers an intuitive, productivity-enhancing user experience that provides:
- User-centric, role-based workspaces, providing users with focused visibility and streamlined workflows to complete work efficiently
- Enhanced usability capabilities and single page application (SPA) architecture framework for a fluid and responsive user experience
- Focus on exception-based processing to increase resource optimization and productivity
- Guided navigation and intelligent automation to increase productivity and accuracy
Developed solely for the federal government, Momentum is acutely focused on maximizing efficiency for meeting federal government regulations and mandates.
Momentum is federal-ready out of the box, so agencies do not need to develop and maintain individual, costly solutions or customizations.
In addition, CGI works to continuously build compliance updates into Momentum using an adaptable solution design that allows agencies and organizations to quickly comply with updates to federal regulations and mandates through configuration adjustments, increasing the cost efficiency of their program.
- G-Invoicing
-
CGI worked closely with the U.S. Department of the Treasury throughout the development and evolution of the G-Invoicing requirements and mandates. This resulted in CGI delivering functionality to meet the initial G-Invoicing requirements 29 months ahead of the mandate effective date. CGI has remained engaged and has delivered functionality to meet the subsequent requirements well in advance of mandate effective dates, allowing our customers to successfully achieve compliance solution in a timely, cost-efficient manner.
- Unique Entity Identifier (UEI)
-
The transition from Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) numbers to UEI was widespread across federal financial, procurement and budgeting systems. CGI provided updates 23 months prior to the mandate effective date, allowing agencies ample time to successfully implement the change
- Statement of Federal Financial Accounting Standards (SFFAS) 54
-
CGI enhanced Momentum to meet the SFFAS 54 requirements four months ahead of the mandate effective date. CGI also enhanced Momentum with automated processes to assist with the significant increase in federal leases some agencies experienced based on the new requirements.
- FPDS Service Packs
-
CGI proactively monitors the FPDS website and attends GSA Technical Interface Community (TIC) meetings to engage in the community and be abreast of changes. We then quickly fold those changes into the Momentum solution
Looking forward, Momentum's strategic direction prioritizes the integration of cutting-edge AI and automation, driving innovation in data analytics, and a steadfast commitment to a user-centric experience, ensuring our users experience unparalleled efficiency and innovation.
