916 Consulting helps New Jersey government agencies, hospitals, and healthcare practices plan, procure, and govern technology. From modernization roadmaps and vendor selection to the responsible administration of AI, we bring executive direction without the executive headcount.
916 Consulting is a New Jersey firm focused on strategy, technology, and business efficiency for the public sector and healthcare. We serve as an embedded technology leader for our clients: setting direction, running discovery, selecting vendors, and keeping initiatives accountable to outcomes.
We work where we live. That means county and municipal government across New Jersey, and hospitals, health systems, and private practices across New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania. Through our team of experienced professionals, we work as a partner with our clients to provide solutions that increase ROI.
Government work stays hyper local to New Jersey. Healthcare work extends across the region: New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania.
Counties, municipalities, authorities, and school districts across New Jersey. We know NJ procurement, OPRA, civil service, and the budget calendar because we work inside them every week. When a vendor says something is impossible, we know whether that is true.
Regional hospitals and health systems evaluating clinical and administrative AI, modernizing patient facing technology, and negotiating with EHR and platform vendors. Independent advice for decisions that touch patient care and protected health information.
Independent physician groups and specialty practices that want the leverage of modern technology: intake, scheduling, patient communication, and AI tools chosen carefully and governed properly. Enterprise thinking, sized for a practice.
Three practices, one goal: technology decisions your organization can defend to the board, the budget office, the public, and your patients.
Fractional technology leadership for organizations whose IT is stretched thin, from county agencies to hospital systems and growing practices.
Independent guidance through procurement, and accountability after the contract is signed.
Finding the friction in how work gets done, then removing it with the right mix of process and technology.
AI is arriving in government and in medicine whether organizations are ready or not. We help agencies, hospitals, and practices adopt it deliberately, with the policies, guardrails, and ongoing administration that public accountability and patient trust demand.
Acceptable use policies, risk frameworks, and review processes tailored to government and healthcare. Aligned with state and federal guidance and with HIPAA obligations, and written in plain language your workforce will actually follow.
A clear inventory of where AI genuinely helps your operation and where it does not. Prioritized by value, risk, and data readiness, not by vendor hype.
Independent assessment of AI products and of AI features being added to systems you already own: data handling, accuracy claims, procurement language, and exit strategy.
Standing administration of your AI program: usage monitoring, incident and exception review, staff guidance, and regular reporting to leadership and governing bodies.
Public sector AI mistakes become public records. In healthcare, they become patient safety and privacy events. The organizations that benefit from AI will not be the ones that adopted it fastest. They will be the ones that administered it well.
Three free tools built the way we build for clients: honest, plain language, and vendor neutral. No signup required.
Thirteen questions, about five minutes, scored across the four dimensions we use with clients. See where your organization stands before a vendor tells you.
Answer ten questions and get a starter acceptable use policy customized to your organization type, with the sections your counsel must review clearly flagged.
Pick a workflow, enter your volumes, and get an honest annual estimate as a range. We count the costs vendors leave out.
Engagements are built around a simple loop: understand the operation, set the direction, and stay accountable through delivery.
We embed with your teams to understand how work actually happens: the systems, the workarounds, and the constraints that reports never capture.
We turn findings into a defensible plan covering priorities, vendors, budgets, and governance, with the reasoning documented for every decision.
We stay through execution, overseeing vendors, tracking outcomes, and adjusting course, so the plan becomes results instead of shelfware.
Whether you are planning a modernization effort, evaluating a vendor, or figuring out what AI should and should not do in your organization, the conversation starts here. Book a time directly or send an email.
