H1 2024 Recap: Federal & State Wins, Global Expansion, Smart Cities Infrastructure Projects, DEI Leadership, Inc 5000, and AI-Powered Transformation

Over the years since the pandemic, while many companies were playing it safe, Clovity was gearing up for a transformative journey. What began as a bold vision to revolutionize business operations with AI and innovative infrastructure has now grown into a global force, impacting industries across continents. Here’s how Clovity not only navigated the first half of 2024 but emerged stronger, more agile, and poised to shape the future. Let’s dive in!

Securing Significant Federal, State & City Wins

“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.” – Albert Schweitzer        

Clovity’s journey in H1 2024 is a perfect example of this philosophy. While we’ve been expanding globally, we haven’t lost sight of our roots. Our dedication has led to securing multiple federal contracts that truly showcase our expertise and trustworthiness. This year alone, we’ve landed contracts with US Treasury, NASA, the United States Coast Guard (USCG), the the State of Louisiana, the City of Sacramento, Seminole County, UC Davis, the Department of State Hospitals of California, the Internal Revenue Service, and Michigan State University. These wins are a testimony to our ability to deliver top-tier services across a range of sectors.

But this isn’t our first rodeo. We’ve also excelled in the public sector over the years as a supplier to the Federal Government and several states, including California, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Illinois, and other states across the country. 

What makes Clovity stand out is our approach—we don’t just deliver services; we craft solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. This client-focused strategy has not only helped us win these contracts but has also solidified our reputation as a reliable and innovative partner in the public sector over the years.

Revolutionizing Urban Landscapes: Smart Poles in Multiple Cities in United States

We have spoken about Smart poles and Cities before, it is one of the many AI-powered solutions that we have perfected over the years. It is truly our honor to share that we're also making a real difference in urban spaces with our smart infrastructure solutions. In the first half of 2024, we took a big step forward by installing smart poles in the multiple cities in Michigan & Colorado, changing the game in how cities handle safety, traffic, and urban mobility.

These smart poles are more than just streetlights—they’re the backbone of a new era in urban infrastructure. With AI-driven analytics, they boost public safety by offering real-time situational awareness. They’re also integrated into emergency response systems, making cities safer and quicker to respond in times of emergencies.

These smart poles are transforming traffic management too. By tapping into data analytics and machine learning, we’re optimizing traffic patterns and cutting down on congestion, leading to smoother and more efficient transportation. Our intelligent systems give cities the tools they need to manage traffic in real-time and ease bottlenecks.

Pedestrian safety and mobility are also front and center in our smart infrastructure efforts. Our smart poles track pedestrian flows using sensor networks, offering valuable data that can shape urban design and improve walkability. By leveraging AI, we’re making pedestrian routes safer and more convenient, helping cities become more livable and accessible.

This is just the beginning. We’re laying the groundwork for smart cities with our smart poles, creating urban environments that are not only safer and more efficient but also more sustainable. By integrating AI-optimized smart lighting systems and using big data to analyze traffic flow, pollution levels, and parking patterns, we’re paving the way for smarter, more connected cities. And we’re not stopping here. We’ll dive into our Atlassian Gold Solution Partner update in a bit.

Going Global: Clovity Launches in Japan and Expands in the UK

Clovity’s ambitions don’t and won’t ever stop at technical accolades. With an eye on global dominance, we made an epic launch in Japan and expanded our footprint in the United Kingdom. This isn’t just a geographical expansion; it’s a strategic move to bring Clovity’s AI-powered process transformation services to new markets that are ripe for innovation.

In Japan, we are all set to redefine the business landscape with its cutting-edge AI solutions. By focusing on process transformation and intelligent business cases, we are helping Japanese companies navigate the complexities of the modern business environment with ease. Whether it’s deploying machine learning models to enhance predictive maintenance for manufacturers or using AI-driven analytics to optimize retail supply chains, we are making a significant impact, and we’re super excited about it.

Similarly, in the UK, Clovity’s expansion is driven by a commitment to revolutionize business operations through AI and data analytics. Our solutions in the UK are designed to maximize ROI, reduce downtime, and foster innovation. With a strong focus on AI-powered efficiency, Clovity is paving the way for a new era of business transformation in the EMEA region. 

Rising to New Heights: Atlassian Gold Solution Partner Status leading into becoming Process Transformation Experts

Clovity’s drive for excellence is evident in our latest milestone: earning Atlassian Gold Solution Partner status. It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our Silver status, and before we knew it, we’d leveled up to gold.

Time really does fly when you’re dedicated to delivering top-notch solutions, and now we’ve got the shiny new badge to show for it. But this isn’t just another badge to add to our collection; it’s our proud proof of deep expertise in delivering Atlassian solutions that truly make a difference. From ITSM to DevOps and Enterprise Service Management, we’ve been helping organizations operate smarter and innovate faster, and that’s exactly right up our alley as we now have a full-blown focused Process Transformation Practice. 

This achievement didn’t come from just checking boxes—it’s the result of mastering Atlassian’s suite end to end, successfully delivering project after project, and always pushing to improve. 

Clovity’s DEI Expansion

Our commitment to excellence extends beyond its technical and professional achievements. The company is also deeply invested in fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. In the first half of 2024, we made significant strides in its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, underscoring its dedication to creating a workplace where everyone feels valued and empowered.

Our DEI initiatives have been recognized with several prestigious certifications, including being certified as a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) by the Western Regional Minority Supplier Development Council, the Supplier Clearinghouse California, and the State of Illinois Business Enterprise Program. Additionally, Clovity has been recognized as a minority-owned US government vendor by SAM and has received the Fast American Asian Business Award from the United States Pan Asian American Chamber of Commerce for three consecutive years.

These certifications and recognitions are more than just accolades; they are a reflection of Clovity’s unwavering commitment to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace. By prioritizing DEI, Clovity is not only enhancing its corporate culture but also driving innovation and success across the board.

To lead these efforts even further, Clovity appointed Bhawna Vats as Sr. Director of DEI Engagement & Partnerships. With over 15 years of experience in fostering inclusive cultures, Vats is the perfect person to spearhead Clovity’s DEI strategy. Under her leadership, Clovity is not just meeting industry standards but setting new benchmarks for DEI excellence.

A Four-Year Winning Streak: Clovity on the Inc. 5000 List

As if its achievements in technology, global expansion, and DEI weren’t enough, Clovity has also landed on the Inc. 5000 List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies for the fourth year in a row—2021, 2022, 2023, and now 2024.

It is truly a proud moment for all of us here at Clovity, and we believe it reflects our steady growth and our knack for adapting to a constantly changing landscape perfectly. 

Since our first recognition in 2021, we kept pushing boundaries, delivering solutions that truly make a difference across industries. Our work in AI-powered digital and process transformations, along with our rigor behind DEI and sustainability, has earned us a spot on the Inc. 5000 list year after year. As we mentioned before in this article, this past year, we’ve taken things even further by launching in Japan and expanding in the UK. We’re proud of how far we’ve come and excited to keep growing alongside our clients and our amazing team.

Building the Future Together

As we reflect on the first half of 2024, we're humbled and proud of the strides we've made together. From earning Atlassian Gold Partner status and expanding in Japan and the UK to securing key federal contracts and advancing smart infrastructure, we've been working hard toward our shared vision and mission. Our focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion remains strong, and being on the Inc. 5000 list for the fourth year in a row is a gratifying recognition of our team's effort.

But we know there's still so much more to do. The successes we've enjoyed so far only motivate us to keep pushing boundaries and exploring new horizons. As we’re into the second half of the year, we're excited to continue innovating, collaborating, and delivering value to our clients and communities.

We're incredibly grateful to our amazing team, partners, and clients who have been with us every step of the way. 

So, what’s next for Clovity? Stay tuned. The best is yet to come.
