Design, build and operate the JAIC JCF Platform on Cloud One (AWS GovCloud)

Working with the JAIC’s Chief Design Officer, the determination was made what deliverables and work products would help launch a more effective system of design and strategic communications delivery. KC designed a comprehensive design system to support JAIC marketing/communications.

To support deliverables developed through the design system, KC established a design (look/feel/structure) that would support the creative development of product/initiative slicks, PPT presentation templates, several infographics, photo/image styles, and logo guidelines to establish brand structure and consistency for the JAIC’s strategic communications.

In addition to brand and strategic communications standards, KC also assisted with the development of improved security and IT architecture protocols/SOPs to modernize JAIC’s enterprise-wide IT systems. Through this work, JAIC was better positioned as a leading organization in the area of AI solutions for government, the private sector, and the entire AI ecosystem.

Through this process, KC led strategy enabled JAIC to improve
its communication and collaboration-building between internal
departments, other government agencies, and external partners
to the JAIC. In short, the enterprise-wide communications
capabilities of KC provided needed solutions to the JAIC, which produced immediate impact for the organization and positioned JAIC as a best-in-class leader around strategic communications to support its AI-driven mission.

Through these primary deliverables, the stage was set to establish a consistent brand identity and platform for delivering mission-critical JAIC communications to internal and external audiences. UX and UI design practices were employed during this process to develop targeted, measurable, user/customer-friendly, effective, and broadly adaptable design and communications solutions, all of which was supported by the KC developed design system.

KC led and participated in the efforts to design and build the JAIC’s Joint Common Foundation (JCF) AI/ML DevSecOps platform in AWS at Impact Level (IL) 5. Redesigned, created, operated (and maintain) a new “to-be” JCF environment with VPCs, subnets, security groups, IAM profiles, routing tables, and firewalls.

Design best-practices to support business processes were established and implemented to work seamlessly with the KC developed comprehensive design system to manage the entire design workflow, delivery, budget management and accountability process for the JAIC with regard to design to support strategic communications goals. Design solutions also incorporated UX/UI methodologies to improve overall user experiences with regard to JAIC communications and marketing with key stakeholders and constituents.
