Question 3

Can Keyhole help agencies meet Section 508 and accessibility requirements?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Keyhole has conducted accessibility audits aligned to WCAG 2.0 AA and Section 508 on both a legacy government desktop application and a public-facing mobile app for a private-sector client, covering keyboard navigation, contrast, and assistive technology compatibility.

Question 4

Does Keyhole hold FedRAMP or StateRAMP authorization?

Accepted Answer

Keyhole's government work is strongest in architecture, legacy modernization, accessibility compliance, and system integration, work that typically sits outside FedRAMP's boundary-authorization requirements.
Agencies that need a FedRAMP- or StateRAMP-authorized environment, cleared personnel, or a prime with a published authority-to-operate history should factor that into procurement planning and ask directly.

Question 5

Does Keyhole integrate with existing agency systems and data platforms?

Accepted Answer

Keyhole's government engagements have included Analysis of Alternatives studies, capability mapping, and integration work across Java, .NET, and Python environments, often as a subcontractor working alongside an agency's existing systems integrator.

Question 6

Why do government agencies choose Keyhole Software?

Accepted Answer

Agencies choose Keyhole because it's one of the few government software development companies that publishes its staffing composition rather than asking agencies to take it on faith: senior, 100% U.S.-based delivery, with no subcontractors, no C2C arrangements, and no offshore resources. That transparency is paired with named experience in the legacy stacks, COBOL, Visual Basic, Java, and .NET, still running government operations.
