Mainframe migration
The Office of Recovery Services (ORS), a division of Utah Department of Human Services (DHS), wanted to modernize its 25-year-old Office of Recovery Services Information System (ORSIS) Child Support system. The ORSIS Child Support system was deployed on a mainframe platform using COBOL computer programming language. The existing technology was limiting ORS's ability to change its business processes and scale. In addition, the maintenance was expensive, and it was challenging to find staff who understood the technology. Deloitte has helped ORS address its challenges, by developing a solution with AWS and innoWakeTM.

Data modernization and integration
A state social services provider had a strategic initiative to modernize to efficiently deliver assistance to more than 2 million citizens a year. Deloitte worked with the state team over two controlled phases: automate and innovate. The team reduced overhead by moving more than 40 production applications to cloud, including development environments and data. Next, the team implemented a shared services model on a central core environment, allowing platforms and resources to be shared across multiple environments. Results: Rapid scalability, improved app speed and performance, and future innovation capabilities. The new cloud-based platform provides citizens and agency civil servants with modern, efficient IT solutions.

Our impact: Scaling a cloud-based genomics platform
Mission as seen through cloud
Clinical trials in the era of precision medicine and machine learning are changing regulatory review at the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Sponsors are now submitting complex genomics, other -omics, real-world data sets, and accompanying informatics, as a part of the structured review process.
A reviewer needs to be able to validate a sponsor's informatic pipeline for safety and efficacy within a matter of weeks, not months. FDA reviewers require scalable cloud-based storage and compute resources, but limitations with technology, security, and privacy have hampered the FDA's ability to effectively collaborate with sponsors, across FDA centers, and with other government agencies and departments.
Innovation through integration
FDA has contracted DNAnexus and partner Deloitte to build precisionFDA, a cloud-based genomics platform that runs on the DNAnexus Platform in AWS. PrecisionFDA delivers a secure and authorized data repository and analysis service that leverages the power of the cloud to promote collaboration and accelerate scientific discovery. The precisionFDA platform is compliant with all NIST security controls at the FISMA-moderate level and leverages the underlying FedRAMP Authority to Operate (ATO) issued by HHS to DNAnexus.
This DNAnexus-powered innovative solution has advanced regulatory science and can substantially improve FDA reviewers' ability to reproduce and explore sponsor-created genomics pipelines in a secure, high-performance environment. PrecisionFDA enables an FDA open data strategy across the pharmaceutical and medical research communities, and addresses data, technology, and collaboration objectives of the FDA's Technology Modernization Action Plan.
Impact delivered
DNAnexus's scale, resilience, and FedRAMP compliance provide the foundation for an AWS-based platform that has advanced regulatory standards for next-generation sequencing and machine learning, promoted the use of FDA public data, and enabled reviewers to more effectively validate the ever-increasing incorporation of large data sets and complex informatics into review submissions. PrecisionFDA currently serves a community of more than 6,000 users from the federal government, pharmaceutical and instrument industries, academic researchers, citizen scientists, laboratories and diagnostic test providers, standards-making bodies, and patient advocacy groups.

Our impact: Advancing tuberculosis research through open-access, multi-domain, global data and tools
Mission as seen through cloud
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) TB Portals Program is a global collaboration that advances tuberculosis (TB) research and analysis through open-access, multi-domain data and tools. NIAID and several vendors have developed the TB Case Browser to collect, store, and make available for further research de-identified TB clinical, pathogen genomics, and imaging data. TB Case Browser enables principal investigators from more than 15 countries to upload source chest radiographs (CXR) and computed tomography (CT) studies. A critical requirement included preventing ingestion of protected health information (PHI) in the images. Deloitte addressed this through preventive training and custom-developed de-identification of DICOM metadata. However, the risk remained for the presence of handwritten and printed names, locations, dates, and other information on the CXRs and CTs themselves.
Innovation through integration
The TB Portals team implemented a solution in AWS that combines S3, API Gateway, Lambda, EFS, RDS, Rekognition, and Comprehend Medical to screen every uploaded image for potential PHI. Using Lambda's readiness at scale to handle image batch uploads, and Rekognition's “just works” text detection in images, NIAID has successfully prevented ingests of sensitive information on patient images working to end TB.
The published TB Portals data currently contains more than 4,750 CXRs and 1,900 CT studies, each of which may contain multiple series; the CT data set alone currently consists of more than 330,000 individual image instances. Each image instance represents its own PHI risk. While training, regular reviews, and limiting upload privileges to specific collaborators is the first line of defense, human error is always possible, and an automated final defense is necessary to protect the program. AWS Rekognition's proven capacity to detect text in many languages has proven invaluable for the global TB Portals Program.
Impact delivered
Load to the application varies between heavy during bulk data set image uploads and moderate during individual image uploads by collaborators when active. The serverless approach enables the project to pay for only those resources needed at the immediate time of upload, without overcommitting resources. Serverless applications enable flexibility to explore these possibilities at a lesser cost and scale them up as usage grows.
