Koniag Government Services has achieved the Amazon Web Services Migration and Modernization Competency after a 1-year process.
KGS is now the only Small Disadvantaged 8(a)-certified government partner with this designation. The new competency deepens KGS’ strategic work with AWS, the company said.
Along with earning a Government Consulting Competency in 2022, KGS joined five AWS partner programs, including: Select Tier Training, Advanced Tier Services, Authorized Training Partner, AWS Solution Provider Program and AWS Public Sector Solution Provider.
The AWS Migration and Modernization Competency helps customers find trusted AWS partners to modernize applications before or after moving to the cloud.
KGS said as a trusted partner, it delivers cloud-focused software solutions that reduce licensing and operational costs, improve performance and support application transformation. The goal: greater agility, resilience and cost-effectiveness for clients.
“KGS is proud to be one of the few organizations to reach the AWS Migration and Modernization Competency,” said Paul Williams, KGS vice president of solutions. “This competency demonstrates the talent and dedication of our workforce, as well as our proven capability to deliver AWS solutions reliably and successfully. Through this competency, we deliver measurable value to our customers.”
