Public Sector Partnerships
Redmond Technology Partners (Redtech) has a long-standing history of supporting public sector agencies across Washington State. As a woman-owned and designated small business, we take great pride in delivering high-quality technology and professional services with a focus on local support, reliability, and compliance with all state contracting standards.
State of Washington
Redtech has been awarded multiple statewide contracts by the Department of Enterprise Services (DES) to provide specialized professional services:
Project Management Support Services
Contract #14822
Software Development Services
Contract #16322
These contracts are available to all Washington State agencies as well as cities, counties, school districts, and higher education institutions seeking qualified staff and consulting services.
We are currently engaged with several Washington State agencies, including:
- Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT)
- Washington Technology Solutions (WaTech)
- Department of Ecology (DOE)
Our active partnerships demonstrate Redtech's proven ability to deliver exceptional results within the framework of state contracting and procurement requirements. We understand the unique challenges of public sector projects—balancing innovation, compliance, and fiscal responsibility—and tailor our solutions to meet those needs.
City of Seattle
For more than a decade, Redtech has provided ongoing staff augmentation and technical expertise to multiple City of Seattle departments, including SDOT, FAS, and Seattle Municipal Courts.
Our largest engagement, the SDOT Permitting Upgrade Project, showcased our breadth of capabilities—supplying Business Analysts, Business Systems Analysts, Technical Writers, Trainers, Developers, and Testers to modernize critical permitting systems. We are proud of our long-standing partnership and continued contribution to the City's digital transformation initiatives.
Seattle Public Schools
Redtech has proudly supported Seattle Public Schools (SPS) for over ten years, providing experienced professionals across a range of IT and business roles.
Our team was instrumental in the original development and deployment of the Student Assignment System, which assigns students to schools based on proximity. We continue to support SPS with Business Analysis and Development resources for ongoing system enhancements—helping ensure technology continues to serve the needs of students and families across the district.
University of Washington IT
As part of the University of Washington's Financial Transformation Project, Redtech provided staff augmentation for UW IT teams focused on large-scale CRM system development and implementation.
Over the two-year engagement, our consultants—Business Analysts, Developers, Technical Writers, and Trainers—supported critical modernization efforts and helped drive successful outcomes for one of the state's most complex enterprise technology initiatives.

System modernization, permitting and licensing platforms, CRM and enterprise implementations, and legacy migrations delivered against agency milestones.
Project management support
Project and program managers, business analysts, and change and training leads under DES contract #14822.
Software development services
Developers, testers, systems analysts, and technical writers under DES contract #16322, onsite or hybrid across Olympia and Puget Sound offices.

Roles we routinely place for public agencies include Project Managers, Business Analysts, Business Systems Analysts, Developers, QA and Test Engineers, Technical Writers, and Trainers.
Government AI & Machine Learning Consulting
Public agencies are being asked to adopt AI while meeting records retention, accessibility, equity, and procurement obligations that private employers never face. We help agencies move deliberately: start with a defensible use case, prove it, then scale.
Advisory & readiness
Use-case selection, data readiness and governance review, and agentic AI roadmaps for agency programs. Agentic AI consulting practice
