Williams Consulting

What Williams Consulting does

Williams Consulting, LLC is a healthcare-focused information technology and management consulting firm founded in 2013 and headquartered in Catonsville, Maryland. The firm serves federal, state, and local healthcare agencies as well as select commercial healthcare providers, with a documented portfolio of engagements across five federal health agencies including the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Food and Drug Administration, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institutes of Health.

The company's offerings are organized around two service lines. The Health IT Professional Services line delivers IT program management, Agile (SAFe) and USDS-playbook software development, enterprise architecture, cloud migration on Azure and AWS, data management and analytics, independent validation and verification, requirements management, and technical training. The Healthcare Management Consulting line delivers health science research and evaluation, chronic and infectious disease surveillance, clinical laboratory support, COVID-19 contact tracing, scientific publications, training and technical assistance, clinical trials management, and organizational improvement. Underlying technology is conventional enterprise tooling (Visual Studio, Telerik, Azure SQL, .NET, REDCap) with analytics via Python, R, SAS, SPSS, Atlas.ti, NVivo, and Qualtrics; there is no proprietary platform product.

The business model is professional services delivered under federal acquisition regulation contract vehicles. The firm holds CIO-SP3 Small Business, GSA Multiple Award Schedule (2016-2036), GSA STARS III, and OASIS+ Best-in-Class designations, and operates as both prime contractor and subcontractor (notably with Noridian Healthcare Solutions on CMS medical review work and through a joint venture with Williams Austin and Associates for human capital services). Pricing follows FAR mechanisms including Firm Fixed Price, Cost Plus Fixed Fee, Cost Plus Award Fee, Cost Plus Incentive Fee, and Time and Materials. SBA certifications as a Woman Owned Small Business, Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business, and HUBZone company provide preferential access to set-aside procurements and form the core go-to-market.
