RISE

IdahoSTARS is the leading expert and resource for quality childcare in Idaho. They relied on paper-based systems to complete coaching, training, licensing, and record-keeping. This resulted in a slow turnaround time for childcare providers to get licensed. Ranging from weeks to months.

BCI

Under increasing regulatory pressure, Blue Cross of Idaho sought a partner to modernize and secure its systems. Together, we deployed a CyberArk solution for identity control and built an AWS-based access framework to ensure scalability, compliance, and data protection.

IRIS

The Idaho Industrial Commission set out to replace paper workflows across six departments, they needed more than new software - they needed a partner. Together, we streamlined operations, improved collaboration, and built a system ready for the future.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Detailed architecture requires deep discovery of specific requirements. However, at the highest level the first choice is between custom build, use a platform, or custom off the shelf system. In Time Tec’s general recommendation is a platform-led approach on Microsoft’s Power Platform, extended with targeted pro-code services and selective COTS for commodity needs. It’s modular, API-first, cloud-native, and delivers fast value without locking you into tomorrow’s legacy.

 

Details:

  • Core: Power Apps/Power Pages; Azure services for scale
  • Data & content: Azure SQL for data; SharePoint/Azure Blob for files
  • Extensibility: Pro-code microservices for unique or high-scale needs


Option Speed to Value Fit to Unique Needs Long Term Flexibility Typical Use Cases
Custom Build Slowest Highest High; higher operations burden Specialized workloads, complex rules
Platform-led (Power Platform + pro-code) Fastest High High; benefits from platform updates Case/workflow apps, multi-agency integrations
COTS Fast if well-fit Limited outside of standard use Medium; vendor roadmaps vary Commodity needs (e.g. content repos, documentation storage)

 

Integration approaches vary based on the technology, ownership, and governance of the existing systems.

 

In many cases, it’s straightforward -

  • We can connect directly through published APIs or standard data interfaces.

In many cases, it’s more complex -

  • We work with the system owner to complete security or data-sharing reviews and
  • Develop custom integration methods for secure data ingestion or synchronization

Our team tailors each integration approach to meet state policies, data security standards, and operational needs - ensuring reliability and compliance at every step.

We approach risk management from two main angles - technical and non-technical.

 

Details:

  • Development costs: systems Integrator fees, data migrations, internal IT staffing
  • Hosting and licensing costs: consumption of cloud services, user and developer licenses, portal licenses, hosting additional dev instances during the deployment period.
  • Maintenance and operation costs: administration staff, support, ongoing technical debt.
  • Business costs: Risks, management of change (MOC), training stuff, business analysis (requirements gathering and user acceptance testing).

We approach risk management from two main angles - technical and non-technical.

 

Technical risks include challenges like:

  • Data integrity: Ensuring data migration doesn’t result in loss or errors.
  • Functional parity: Verifying that all key capabilities in the old system are captured in the new one.
  • System stability: Testing integrations and performance early to avoid surprises post-launch.

Non-technical risks often center around people and process, such as:

  • User adoption: Making sure staff are trained and comfortable with the new system.
  • Funding uncertainty: Projects can be delayed or downsized due to shifting budgets.
  • Vendor dependencies: Managing relationships and access when legacy vendors control key components.

 

Our mitigation strategy includes early discovery, stakeholder engagement, and iterative testing - ensuring technical precision and organizational readiness every step of the way.

Yes. We’ve modernized systems for agencies of all sizes - from small departments to large, multi-division organizations. Below are a few examples:

 

Commission on Pardons and Parole (COPP)

One of our smaller projects, COPP managed all parole and bond tracking manually through spreadsheets and shared drives. We built a PowerApps solution and migrated their data to automate tracking and reporting.

Results: Tasks that took hours now take minutes, improving accuracy and freeing staff to focus on higher-priority work.

 

Idaho Industrial Commission (IIC)

IIC had paper-based workflows across six departments, leading to duplication and delays. We partnered with them to build a low-code platform to centralize data and automation processes.

Results: 90% reduction in paper-based processes, shared cloud storage for all departments, and workers’ comp record processing reduced from days to minutes.

 

Blue Cross of Idaho (BCI)

We supported BCI with three modernization initiatives: automated FHIR data exchange, migration of 300+ CI/CD pipelines, and enhanced security to meet NIST, HIPAA, and PCI standards.

Results: 100% automation, $50k/month in savings, and improved compliance and scalability.
