Nava Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) is happy to announce the launch of Nava Strata, a gold-standard target architecture and suite of open source tools that gives government agencies everything they need to run a modern service. Built on Nava’s best practices and lessons learned from over a decade of successful delivery across federal and state programs, Strata promises to break the cycle of failed delivery and wasted taxpayers dollars that is often the outcome of working with legacy vendors.
Strata furthers Nava’s mission of making government services simple and effective. Built and designed by the company’s most experienced engineers, Strata enables agencies to save months or years of time, inherit best practices and models that work, and maintain full control over their long-term roadmaps and vendor ecosystem.
“We see the same pattern over and over: large vendors lock agencies into costly, proprietary technology that ossifies and blocks effective human-centered service delivery,” said Nava CEO and co-founder Rohan Bhobe. “With Strata, we’re breaking that vicious cycle. It is the only solution on the market that has been proven at scale across multiple federal and state programs, fully aligns with government’s long-term, no-lock-in technology interests, and promotes healthy vendor competition.”
Strata enables agencies to build, deploy, and operate systems that are secure, compliant, and ready for production on day one, all while maintaining full control of their code and data. The offering currently includes:
Infrastructure templates: A set of templates for quickly setting up production-ready, cloud-native infrastructure
Application templates: A set of templates to quickly begin building user-facing and backend applications
Software Development Kit: A suite of composable software development tools for building human-centered digital services applications
If you are excited about solving meaningful problems alongside top government technologists, get involved with our open source community. You’ll have the opportunity to collaborate with engineers, architects, designers, and subject matter experts in building mission-critical software. Strata welcomes your feedback and GitHub pull requests to continuously improve for the benefit of government services, programs, and agencies across the country.
