Why Choose Apps By TAP for Government Projects
Apps By TAP stands out as a government IT partner due to our combination of technical excellence, proven performance, and commitment to client success. Our track record includes delivering solutions that many others deemed too difficult. For example, we developed Bim-Plugins.com, a secure cloud-hosted marketplace for engineering software plugins, and built a secure file-transfer gateway to move extremely large (10+ GB) files from cloud storage to on-premises servers. We also created over 50 custom Tekla automation plugins for BlueScope Steel’s engineering teams, dramatically reducing manual engineering tasks and boosting productivity. These successes demonstrate our ability to deliver secure, scalable solutions and tackle complex requirements – exactly what government projects demand.
What sets us apart:
-
Proven “Impossible Project” Success – We deliver results on complex challenges that competitors walk away from. Our team thrives on solving “impossible” problems, making us ideal for agencies facing high-stakes or difficult projects.
-
Full-Stack Capability – Expertise from backend algorithms to secure integrations and intuitive front-end interfaces means we can handle every layer of a project. Whether it’s developing a database schema or refining a mobile app UI, we ensure all components work seamlessly together.
-
Intelligent Automation – We specialize in streamlining workflows through smart automation, eliminating errors and increasing efficiency in your processes. From AI-driven data processing to custom script automation, we help government teams do more with less effort.
-
Secure Large-File Handling – Experience designing systems for large-scale secure file transfer. For instance, we built a cloud-to-on-premises transfer gateway that reliably moves files up to 10 GB with end-to-end integrity – crucial for agencies that deal with big data and need guaranteed security in transit.
-
Engineering Automation Expertise – Deep experience in developing specialized engineering software and plugins. Notably, we delivered 50+ custom modeling plugins for Tekla Structures that automated complex engineering tasks for a major manufacturer, a skill set that can be applied to automate technical workflows in government projects as well.

When you partner with Apps By TAP, you get a team that is 100% US-based and committed to quality. We pride ourselves on clean, maintainable code and solutions built for longevity. Our “quality over shortcuts” ethos and collaborative approach ensure that the software we deliver is something your stakeholders and end-users can rely on day after day.
Subcontracting Opportunities
In addition to prime contracting, Apps By TAP actively seeks subcontracting opportunities and partnerships. We are open to collaborating with prime contractors and larger integrators to contribute our specialized software engineering expertise on federal or state projects. As a nimble small business contractor, we can subcontract on complex programs, providing agility and deep technical skills that help prime contractors meet project goals and small business participation targets. Our subcontracting software engineering services allow primes to augment their teams with our highly skilled developers, whether to fulfill niche requirements (e.g. a specific technology stack) or to accelerate delivery on a tight timeline.
Apps By TAP has proven experience working in multi-vendor environments and integrating seamlessly into larger project teams. For example, we augmented BlueScope Steel NA’s engineering team as an external development partner, delivering over 50 custom Tekla plugins and automation tools to enhance their workflows. This experience demonstrates our ability to collaborate effectively under another organization's lead, adapt to established processes, and still deliver innovative results. We bring the same cooperative spirit and reliability to government subcontracting roles – working hand-in-hand with prime contractors to ensure the overall project’s success.

State and Local Government Services

Apps By TAP also offers specialized services for state and local government agencies. Our State and Local Government Services are aimed at modernizing public-sector IT systems and delivering user-friendly solutions for both agency staff and citizens. We provide state agency app solutions that streamline operations, improve public access to services, and reduce manual workload. This can range from developing online permitting portals and mobile inspection apps to implementing secure data integration between state departments.
We build custom software solutions that address the unique challenges of state and municipal agencies, such as integrating with legacy systems or meeting state-specific regulatory requirements. Every solution is designed for scalability and long-term maintenance, ensuring that state IT investments continue to pay off for years to comeappsbytap.com. Our experience in delivering cloud-native and on-premises hybrid solutions is particularly valuable for government clients looking to transition to modern infrastructure without disrupting critical services. By leveraging our expertise in intelligent automation and intuitive UI/UX design, we help local governments do more with limited resources, all while enhancing security and citizen satisfaction.
Federal Contracting Services
Our Federal Contracting Services focus on delivering robust, secure software solutions to U.S. federal agencies. We specialize in custom app development for federal agencies, building systems that meet rigorous federal IT standards and mission-specific requirements. This includes developing cloud-native government applications on platforms like Microsoft Azure for high scalability and security. We design web and mobile applications with federal security compliance in mind and integrate with existing government systems through secure APIs and data pipelines.
As a federal contractor, Apps By TAP is classified under NAICS codes 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services) and 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), and we carry multiple relevant PSC codes (including DA30, DA45, DA01, DA11) covering software development, programming, application support, and cloud services. We bring deep expertise in areas vital to federal projects, such as identity management, large-scale data processing, and secure cloud architecture. Federal clients can count on our team for end-to-end government software development – from initial requirements gathering and architecture design to development, testing, deployment, and ongoing support – all executed with the accountability and quality control that federal contracts demand.
