At Beacon, we’re on a mission to transform how government technology projects get done, accelerating timelines and delivering outcomes faster than ever before. We don’t just provide software; we offer a dedicated services layer that ensures your project’s success from start to finish.
The Challenges DOTs Face in Implementing Technology
Departments of Transportation (DOTs) are under immense pressure to modernize, but they’re often held back by legacy processes, limited resources, and workforce constraints. Adopting new technologies is critical for solving problems like traffic congestion and safety, but many agencies simply aren’t equipped to manage complex technology projects as efficiently as they’d like to. Heavyweight workflows and procurement challenges can drag projects out for months or even years.
How Our Services Layer Works
Yes, we have a software platform, but Beacon’s services layer is integral to project success. With decades of civil engineering and software development experience, we bring a fresh perspective to the transportation space without attempting to reinvent established government processes that exist for a reason. Instead, we work within existing frameworks to make projects run more smoothly.
AI plays a central role in driving efficiency at Beacon. While many current applications may seem routine, they deliver significant time savings, streamline workflows, and reduce labor costs. While our platform leverages AI to enhance everything from schedule management to real-time project tracking. Just as importantly, our team uses AI to make smarter, faster decisions, allowing us to help you accelerate progress and achieve your goals more efficiently.
What Makes our Team Strong
With nearly 40 years of combined experience in civil engineering and software development, Beacon’s team brings a unique perspective to the challenges faced by DOTs. Our broad set of expertise allows us to bridge the critical gap between traditional infrastructure needs and cutting-edge technology, public sector and private sector – allowing us to serve as a conduit for faster delivery that meets the needs of the DOTs.
Examples of How We Help
We don’t just deliver insights; we help you take action. Our services layer works closely with your IT and procurement teams, pushing projects forward without getting bogged down. Our team provides continuous guidance, using private sector-inspired principles from software development. Regardless of what comes up, we’re there to help you resolve challenges and keep things on track.
A Business Model Focused on Outcomes, Not Hours
At Beacon, we believe that deliverable documents and billable hours are not the end goals. Our business model is focused on tangible outcomes. We price our projects based on the value we provide, not the time spent working. This approach ensures alignment between our team and our clients. By streamlining processes and leveraging the latest AI innovations, we help agencies save significant time and resources while achieving their technology goals faster than ever.
The Human Element Behind Technology
While our platform is powered by advanced AI, we recognize that technology alone isn’t enough. At Beacon, there’s always a human element behind everything we do. Our team helps you interpret the data, navigate complex processes and dynamics, and ensure you get the most value out of your technology.
