IT for Government

Public-sector IT with private-sector responsiveness. Procurement-familiar, records-retention aware, and built around municipal budget realities.

Talk to Wizcom

Public-Sector IT Has Its Own Rules

You answer to a council, a state auditor, and constituents. Your budget cycles are annual. Your procurement takes months. Your staff turnover is real. IT vendors who don't understand any of that end up either overpromising or overspending.

Wizcom supports municipalities, county offices, and state agency partners across Michigan. We know the RFP process, the records retention requirements, and the specific pressures of running IT in a fishbowl.

Whether you're a township of ten thousand or a county with a hundred thousand residents, the underlying job is the same: IT that serves the public interest without becoming the story at the next council meeting.

The Council Meeting That Streamed by Gavel

A township clerk called at 3 PM on a Monday. The council chamber's livestream and audio system had failed during setup for that night's 7 PM meeting, one where a controversial rezoning was on the agenda and public turnout was expected to be heavy. Michigan's Open Meetings Act requires public access, and the township had committed to remote-viewing coverage in every notice.

Their previous IT vendor was three weeks into an unrelated ticket queue and couldn't get someone on-site until Wednesday. The board president was ready to postpone the meeting and face the political fallout.

We had a technician on-site by 4:15 PM. Root cause was a firmware conflict between the audio DSP and the streaming encoder introduced by an unattended update. Rolled the firmware back, verified the audio matrix, ran a full test broadcast to the township's public channel by 6:30 PM. The 7 PM meeting streamed on time, with clean audio, to the largest remote audience the township had ever had.

That clerk still calls us "the reason the meeting happened."

Questions Municipal IT Leaders Ask

How do you handle election-adjacent infrastructure?
Election-touching systems get treated as a distinct category: dedicated segmentation, tight access controls, patch discipline documented, and audit logging retained per state schedule. We don't claim election-system certification, but the underlying infrastructure gets managed to a discipline that matches the sensitivity.
Are you familiar with municipal RFP processes?
Yes. We've responded to enough municipal procurements to know what your legal department wants to see, what your finance director cares about, and how to structure a response that doesn't create liability for either side.
Which municipal ERPs does Wizcom support?
Tyler Munis, BS&A Software (assessing, tax, court), Cavelo, and the range of specialty municipal systems. We understand the upgrade paths and the integration points to state systems.
How do you handle open-meeting technology?
Livestreaming, hybrid meeting support, audio systems, and the specific technology stacks that meet Michigan's Open Meetings Act requirements for public participation.
