Government & Defense

Workflow orchestration trusted by the federal government

Kinetic meets the security and compliance requirements that eliminate most workflow platforms from consideration — IL5 certified, CAC authentication, full audit trails — and has for over 20 years in defense and intelligence environments.

The challenge

Modernization programs that never finish. Systems that can't be replaced. Workflows that never improve.

Government and defense organizations face a problem no commercial vendor solves well: the systems that run critical operations cannot be replaced — not because of technical limitations, but because of compliance requirements, procurement timelines, and operational risk. Multi-year modernization programs stall. Budgets get reallocated. And the original systems remain.

The result is manual processes that persist for years — not because no one wants to fix them, but because nothing can connect classified systems without introducing unacceptable risk. An 85-page paper-based recruiting process. A 3-week provisioning cycle that requires eight manual handoffs. A service request system where no one knows the status until it's done.

Most workflow platforms fail before procurement ends. They don't meet IL5. They don't support CAC authentication. They require data migration or cloud-only deployment that compliance teams can't approve. Kinetic was built for exactly this environment — and has operated in it for over two decades.

Why Kinetic wins in government

Two things that eliminate every competitor before the demo

Government procurement is a filter, not just a process. Most workflow platforms fail on security posture alone. The ones that survive don't understand the modernization constraint. Kinetic is the only platform that clears both bars consistently.

Government-grade security posture

Kinetic is IL5 certified, supports CAC/PIV authentication, and provides complete audit trails for every workflow action. Role-based access control and least-privilege enforcement are built in — not configured around a commercial platform that wasn't designed for classified environments.

This isn't a compliance checklist. It's the reason Kinetic is deployed in defense and intelligence environments where most vendors never get past the security review.

  • IL5 certified for sensitive unclassified and controlled unclassified information
  • CAC/PIV authentication without third-party workarounds
  • Full audit trails with timestamps, user identity, and action outcomes
  • On-premises, air-gapped, government cloud, and hybrid deployment options

Modernize without replacing your systems

Kinetic does not replace your systems of record. It sits on top of them, orchestrates workflows across them, and delivers a unified user experience — without requiring data migration, system replacement, or backend customization.

This matters enormously in government environments where systems cannot be replaced due to compliance requirements, and where modernization programs that require full migration have a near-zero completion rate. Kinetic gives organizations measurable improvement without the risk.

  • Connects to existing systems via standard APIs — nothing ripped out
  • Configuration-driven approach requires no custom development
  • Incremental deployment — one workflow at a time, starting in days
  • Avoids multi-year migration programs that never complete

Proven in the field

Four government organizations. Measurable outcomes. No system replacements.

Every result below came from the same approach: Kinetic layered on top of existing systems, orchestrating workflows across them, without requiring migration or rip-and-replace.

USDA — U.S. Department of Agriculture

3 weeks to 30 minutes. Deployed in 4 days.

Because Kinetic layers on top of existing systems without migration, USDA deployed in 4 days and cut provisioning from 3 weeks to 30 minutes. The platform achieved 75%+ service automation without replacing a single backend system — and was operational in a fraction of the time competing solutions required.

MDA — Missile Defense Agency

$1.1–1.6M annual savings. 50–65% faster processes.

Because Kinetic meets IL5 requirements and orchestrates across existing systems, MDA unified workflows for 9,000+ users, reducing process time 50–65% and saving $1.1–1.6M annually. The platform gave MDA a single workflow layer across fragmented defense systems without replacing any of them.

INSCOM — U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command

85-page manual process eliminated. 50% less recruiter workload.

Because Kinetic's configuration-driven approach requires no custom development, INSCOM replaced an 85-page manual recruiting process and reduced recruiter workload by 50%. The platform was deployed at IL5 without requiring migration from existing backend systems.

FCPS — Fairfax County Public Schools

250,000+ requests standardized across 200+ locations.

Because Kinetic provides a unified experience layer across all systems, FCPS standardized 250,000+ requests across 200+ locations. Staff across every school and administrative site now work through a single, consistent interface — with no changes to the underlying systems each site depends on.

20+ years in government

This isn't a startup entering government. It's the platform that helped define what workflow orchestration looks like in the most demanding environments in the world.

Kinetic has operated in defense and intelligence environments for over two decades. The platform was not adapted for government after the fact — it was built alongside these requirements, refined through real deployments at federal agencies, and validated in environments where failure is not an acceptable outcome.

Most enterprise software vendors treat government as a vertical. For Kinetic, government is where the platform earned its credibility. The security posture, the modernization-layer architecture, the configuration-driven approach — these aren't features added for a market. They're the product of 20+ years operating where the stakes are highest.

What Kinetic delivers in government environments

Every capability was built to operate under the constraints that define government IT — not adapted after the fact.

IL5 certified, CAC enabled

Meets the security requirements of defense and intelligence environments. IL5 certification, CAC/PIV authentication, and full audit trails are built in — not bolted on after the fact.

Modernization without migration

Put a modern experience layer on top of existing systems. Users get a unified interface. Backend systems stay in place. No migration risk, no procurement delays, no disruption to operations.

Cross-agency workflow orchestration

Government workflows span multiple agencies, departments, and systems. Kinetic orchestrates the full process — routing, approvals, fulfillment, and status visibility — across all of them.

Complete compliance and audit trails

Every workflow action is logged with timestamps, user identity, and outcomes. Role-based access control enforces least-privilege. Compliance reporting is built into the platform.

Frequently asked questions

Kinetic is IL5 certified and supports CAC/PIV authentication. The platform provides full audit trails, role-based access control, and least-privilege enforcement. It is actively deployed in classified and sensitive government environments across defense and intelligence agencies.

Yes. Kinetic is specifically designed to sit on top of existing systems of record without replacing them. It connects via standard APIs and orchestrates workflows across any system your organization operates — from legacy mainframes to modern cloud services — without requiring migration.

Kinetic supports government compliance requirements through comprehensive audit logging, role-based access control, data encryption, and flexible deployment options. The platform can be deployed on-premises, in air-gapped environments, government cloud environments, or hybrid configurations.

The USDA deployed their first Kinetic workflow in 4 days. Most government implementations start with a targeted use case and expand incrementally, avoiding the multi-year timelines associated with full system replacements. The configuration-driven approach means no custom development is required to get started.

No. That is the core design principle. Kinetic sits on top of your existing systems, orchestrates the workflows that span them, and delivers a modern user experience — without touching your systems of record. This is why Kinetic succeeds in government environments where most modernization programs fail.

Kinetic has operated in defense and intelligence environments for over 20 years. The platform was not adapted for government after the fact — it was built and refined through real deployments at federal agencies and defense organizations where security and compliance requirements are non-negotiable.
