Celebrating 8 Years: Our People, Culture, and Innovation Are Shaping the Future of GovTech

A Season of Deep Gratitude

As the year draws to a close and we enter a season traditionally marked by Thanksgiving, we are pausing to reflect on our journey. What began eight years ago has flourished into a trusted GovTech partner, an evolution fueled by the dedication of our team and the trust of our clients and partners.

Our core realization remains: true change is driven by people, collaboration, and dedicated execution. Our strong foundation is not just innovative technology, but guiding principles—the Vision to Change a billion lives and the Mission to Empower government workers to provide frictionless services - through rapid, relentless modernization. This powerful purpose is woven into the very fabric of our Cardy DNA.

The Journey So Far

In eight hard years filled with challenges and lessons, we’ve grown from a handful of innovators into a community of over 200 professionals, supporting 15 government agencies, 12 nonprofit organizations, and nine states. This expansion is a direct reflection of our Values in action:

Focus on outcomes: Our AI-enabled solutions are designed to deliver tangible results in Health and Human Services (HHS), enhancing digital engagement and accountability.
Empower together: We operate as one team, a diverse collective driven by a shared commitment to excellence and collaboration.

Our AI-enabled, pre-built SaaS solutions for Health and Human Services (HHS) help agencies streamline operations, enhance digital engagement, and strengthen accountability.

This commitment has earned us recognition, including the AWS State & Local Government Partner of the Year (2022), a leading GovTech company (2020–2025), and received the prestigious “Rising Star” award at the 2024 SLEDIE Awards, presented by e.Republic. These achievements are not just external validation; they are proof that when we Lead with empathy and Do what's right, we can truly shape the future of GovTech.

“Our eight-year journey is a testament to the power of relentless purpose. We learned early on that GovTech modernization is not just about technology; it requires us to live our DNA of 'We Care,' cultivate a culture that perfectly balances people, purpose, and innovation, and continuously build trust with our partners and clients.”

The ClearCycle Acquisition

While we celebrate eight years, our culture is rooted in a deeper history. The 2021 acquisition of ClearCycle brought with it a 30-year legacy of expertise in healthcare claims and financial systems. This integration wasn't just strategic—it was cultural. It reinforced our value of Turning possibility into reality by blending modern AI with decades of know-how. This rich history strengthens CardyCares, our healthcare suite, ensuring our solutions are not only innovative but also grounded in proven, expert knowledge—a culture of continuous, deep learning.

Our People: The Heart of the Cardy DNA

The true engine of Cardinality is our people. Our culture is built on mutual respect, relentless curiosity, and a deep sense of service. Mutual respect, relentless curiosity, and a deep sense of service form the foundation of our culture. This year, we were thrilled to welcome new team members to our growing U.S. and global teams, including Vishal Hanjan (Chief Operating Officer), Ashwini Chharia (Vice President, CardyWay Implementations), Stacy Night (Senior Leader, GovTech Implementations), Akshara Baru (Director, Customer Success and Family Outcomes), and Kera Morelock (Director, Customer Success and Healthcare Solutions).

Our team is dedicated to supporting and making a real difference—a mission fueled by our lived experiences and our commitment to leading with empathy in every interaction.

“Having worked with global government agencies, I’ve seen how technology can empower them to better serve their citizens. AI-enabled government services are the next frontier, and I’m excited to be part of Cardinality’s journey as we help shape the future of GovTech.”

Looking Ahead

Moving forward, our mission remains clear: to help governments serve faster and smarter, ultimately improving the lives of those in each and every one of our communities.

By blending modern AI capabilities with our decades of experience in Health and Human Services, we deliver pre-built, purpose-driven solutions that modernize operations, optimize performance, and achieve meaningful outcomes for the people they serve.

Every new project is an opportunity for us to learn, refine, and extend our impact. We continuously transform technology, data, and human-centered design into powerful solutions that strengthen public service and make a tangible difference for communities.

“I’m honored to have shared the last 4 years of that journey, helping reimagine how technology connects people to care, opportunity, and change. 4 years of growth, learning, and purpose alongside incredible colleagues. Together, we’ve built more than systems — we’ve built trust, transformation, and hope in communities we serve. I’m grateful to be part of this mission and excited for what’s next. The future is bright, and we’re just getting started!”
