Practice Area 02

Mission automation.
Government-proven. DoD-delivered.

CACG has designed, deployed, and transitioned Microsoft Power Platform and M365 automation solutions to government ownership within the DCSA/NBIS program. This is not a capability pitch — it is a delivery record. Four production solutions. Quantified outcomes. Accepted by a DoD program office.

Why automation now

The federal workforce is being asked to do more with less. CACG has already solved this for DoD.

DoD program offices are managing growing mission complexity with constrained budgets and reduced headcount. Manual processes consume capacity that should be applied to mission outcomes.
Most DoD components already license Microsoft Power Platform inside M365 GCC High. The gap is deployment knowledge and mission-specific configuration — not access.
CACG has closed that gap in production. Four solutions delivered inside DCSA’s live program environment, accepted by government, transitioned to government ownership.
Independence note: CACG’s automation practice serves program offices where CACG is not concurrently engaged as an independent mission assurance provider, preserving the structural independence that defines Practice Area 01.

Federal efficiency alignment

Automation as mission efficiency

CACG’s automation services directly support federal efficiency goals — reducing manual processes, consolidating reporting, and eliminating duplicative workflows. Power Platform solutions are typically deployed within existing government license agreements, requiring no new software procurement. The ROI is rapid and documentable.
Production Delivery Record

Delivered. Accepted. Transitioned to government ownership.

Designed, deployed, and formally transitioned to DCSA/NBIS PMO ownership. Each addressed a specific federal compliance mandate. Not demos or pilots — production systems.
Mission Assurance
Excel + Power BI

Program Governance & Oversight

Management of governance boards, executive briefings, decision forums, and documentation frameworks. CACG owns the governance infrastructure so program leadership can focus on mission outcomes. Includes status reporting, action tracking, and risk escalation protocols calibrated to each program’s operating tempo.

Power Apps + Dataverse

PMO Personnel Management & Training Compliance Application

Centralized Power Platform application for the NBIS PMO Business Office to manage all personnel data, training status, and workforce structure in a single secure environment. Includes advanced search, bulk update engine, automated training compliance tracking, and Excel export for audit and reporting.

Outcomes delivered
Accountability Compliance
Forms + Excel + Power Automate

Daily Personnel Accountability & Occupancy Tracking System

Automated personnel tracking and daily occupancy reporting system deployed in response to a government protocol requiring daily accountability of all on-site NBIS personnel. Integrates Microsoft Forms, Excel, and Power Automate into a cohesive, auditable compliance platform with automated morning reminders and real-time leadership reporting.

Outcomes delivered
HR Process Automation
SharePoint + Power Automate

Telework Request & Approval Workflow Automation

SharePoint-based form replacing an ad hoc, email-driven telework approval process with a standardized, automated, and auditable workflow. Features supervisor-based navigation, standardized reason codes, mandatory government-benefit justification, and automated notification routing — designed at Business Officer direction to enforce organizational compliance.

Outcomes delivered

What this means for your program

These solutions were built on Microsoft 365 — the same platform already licensed by most DoD agencies. CACG did not require new infrastructure, new contracts, or new software. We configured, deployed, and transitioned production-grade automation within existing government environments. That model is replicable for your program office.
Platform Capabilities

The Microsoft 365 stack. Configured for DoD.

CACG delivers automation solutions built on Microsoft’s federal-authorized technology stack — configured for DoD compliance, mission requirements, and security standards from day one.

Power Automate

Workflow Automation

Automated approval chains, notification systems, data routing, and process orchestration — eliminating manual handoffs and reducing cycle time for program-critical workflows. Deployed within GCC High, compatible with DoD data governance requirements.

Power Apps + Dataverse

Mission Applications

Custom low-code applications for program tracking, personnel management, status reporting, and operational dashboards. Built to DoD 508 accessibility standards, deployable on government-managed devices, and integrated with existing DoD data sources including Dataverse and SharePoint.

Power BI + Excel

Dashboards & Analytics

Real-time program performance dashboards, criticality visualization, risk heat maps, and leadership reporting — connected to live program data. CACG has delivered both embedded Power BI reporting and advanced Excel automation for mission assurance and program governance functions.

SharePoint + Forms

Compliance & Process Workflows

Structured workflow automation for HR processes, compliance tracking, and accountability mandates — replacing email-based ad hoc processes with standardized, auditable systems built on the SharePoint and Microsoft Forms platform already authorized in your M365 environment.

AI & Machine Learning

AI/ML capability assessment and prototyping — proven in the most complex federal data environment.

CACG’s AI/ML experience was earned inside one of the federal government’s most demanding data environments: the National Background Investigation Services — a system processing sensitive personal information for national security clearance holders at enterprise scale, subject to stringent privacy, auditability, and human-in-the-loop requirements.

CACG experts supported strategic initiatives to assess, design, and prototype AI/ML-enabled capabilities for modernizing the personnel vetting lifecycle. That experience — conducted within a secure GovCloud proof-of-concept environment — addresses the practical constraints of AI implementation that matter most to federal program offices: data handling boundaries, auditability, security control alignment, and the preservation of human judgment in consequential decisions.

This is not commercial AI adapted for government. It is AI/ML capability development designed from the outset around mission assurance, security, privacy, and adjudicative oversight requirements.

NBIS AI/ML Capability Areas

Human-in-the-loop by design

CACG’s AI/ML work on NBIS was conducted with explicit attention to maintaining human decision authority in consequential adjudicative processes. AI-assisted workflows were designed to improve data quality, consistency, and efficiency — not to replace the human judgment that federal adjudication requires. That discipline carries into every AI engagement CACG pursues.

Cloud & Architecture

Built for classified and sensitive environments.

Cloud Migration

Classified & unclassified cloud migration

CACG has designed and deployed cloud infrastructure at Impact Level 6. We apply that experience to mission cloud migration engagements, ensuring technical decisions reflect operational security requirements rather than commercial best practices applied uncritically to government environments.

Unified communications & collaboration

Voice, video, email, and chat infrastructure for secure DoD collaboration environments. CACG has deployed unified communications capabilities in compartmented spaces, including the Compartmented Enterprise Desktop (CED) — a classified collaboration platform serving multiple DoD users.

This work extends into the coalition domain. Through its support to the SAF/MPCO Pegasus program, CACG has delivered communications and collaboration capability across the Five Eyes (FVEY) partnership — work governed by Military Standards (MilStd), NATO Standardization Agreements (STANAGs), and Allied Communications Publications (ACP). That experience grounds CACG’s UC&C practice in the interoperability and message-handling standards that allied coalition information sharing actually requires.
