Case Study: a state transportation agency modernizes its financial systems with North Highland

State Transportation Agency modernizes $14.8B financial framework with North Highland

A state transportation agency managing $14.8 billion in grants and investments partnered with North Highland to modernize its aging financial technology infrastructure. The agency faced significant operational risks from its legacy systems, including security vulnerabilities and compliance concerns, which were exacerbated by an upcoming statewide accounting system implementation.

North Highland developed a comprehensive modernization roadmap, which included a proactive impact analysis and the implementation of Agile methodologies. The partnership delivered substantial value, including a structured $32M remediation framework for 62 systems and support for the successful management of $14.8 billion in funds. The agency also realized a 25% reduction in development efforts through the creation of an Azure DevOps repository.
