About ALINEDS
Secure technology for the public sector.
ALINEDS LLC is a Texas-based, minority-owned (MBE-certified) IT and AI firm founded in 2013, serving State, Local, and Education (SLED) government across the United States. From its Round Rock, Texas headquarters and four regional offices, ALINEDS delivers secure AI, cybersecurity, cloud and application modernization, managed IT, and consulting - backed by verifiable public-sector contract authority and $5M professional liability coverage.
Our story
Founded in 2013, ALINEDS was built to bring enterprise-grade technology to the public sector without the enterprise-grade risk. The name reflects the mission - Artificial Learning Intelligences for Next-generation Education & Data Solutions - and the focus has stayed consistent: helping government, education, and public-health organizations modernize securely and adopt AI responsibly.
As a minority-owned, MBE-certified and SAM.gov-registered firm, ALINEDS serves SLED agencies nationwide from five U.S. offices. Its work spans secure AI and data, cybersecurity, cloud and application modernization, managed IT, and consulting - always engineered to the compliance frameworks public agencies answer to (NIST, FedRAMP, GovRAMP, HIPAA, and FERPA among them, as alignment targets).
What sets ALINEDS apart is verifiable authority: the firm holds active cooperative and statewide contracts - TXShare/NCTCOG, Texas DIR, the State of Washington, PCA, and TIPS - that let public agencies buy its services quickly and compliantly. Its flagship AI system, Hermes, automates end-to-end RFP response in production today, and a portfolio of deployment-ready AI agents is built for public-sector use cases across education, public health, government, transit, and utilities.
