Companies to enable federal agencies to modernize, streamline,
and enhance their AI capabilities
ECS, an IT systems integrator focused on data and AI,
cybersecurity, and enterprise transformation solutions, and an ASGN
(NYSE: ASGN) brand, has partnered with SAS, a global leader in data
and AI, to help federal agencies and commercial health systems
modernize, streamline, and enhance their AI capabilities. The
partnership will focus on health AI solutions that enable customers

critical applications — from public safety and health monitoring,
to risk management, operational efficiency, resource management,
and policy and compliance oversight.
"ECS provides state-of-the-art data management, analytics, and
AI services across the federal government,” said Tom Lapato, vice
president of Civilian Health Accounts at ECS. “And SAS has been a
trusted solution provider to the federal government for nearly 50
years, with tens of thousands of federal professionals now using
SAS solutions. Our partnership will help to advance our customers’
missions in significant ways."
“We’re excited to collaborate with SAS,” said John Heneghan,
president of ECS. “With a focus on human-centric design,
accountability, and transparency, SAS and ECS will deliver
flexible, high-impact, data-driven solutions that help our federal
customers respond proactively to emerging challenges and drive
their missions forward.”
"We're at a compelling moment where AI is poised to transform
productivity and outcomes in healthcare," said SAS Federal Director

and our deep experience in U.S. civilian health, together we will
enable health agencies to seize that moment."
