Enterprise Architecture
Aware of the failing siloed equation in social enterprises, agencies are focused on the opportunity to transform operations to deliver new service levels by realizing new intra- and inter-agency efficiencies. The time is now for an Enterprise Architecture approach. Agencies are working with a broad range of clients from children to the elderly, from families to singles, and from service veterans to injured employees. As such, agencies need to consider application functionality, solution knowledge management attributes, as well as architecture/infrastructure planning. Integrated and outcome focused, SEM provides an enterprise platform for needs-based and contribution-based citizen service organizations. This new category of citizen-centric enterprise software leverages COTS products built on open standards to transform as well as modernize and simplify the systems and business processes used by health, human services, workforce services, and social security agencies.
The Cúram Business Application Suite provides a business-focused model built on an open framework that can provide a blueprint for an organization’s enterprise architecture. While many companies talk about understanding Enterprise Architecture, Cúram Software pioneered the Social Enterprise Management model – embracing the tenets of enterprise architecture as a foundation to how we design and build our solutions . Wholly focused on SEM, Cúram Software delivers an enterprise solution that encompasses and integrates human services, workforce services and social security.

Cúram Software’s mission to provide citizen-centric, outcomes-focused results directly aligns with government agencies’ enterprise architecture objectives and the true underlying imperative– addressing citizen needs.
