2 Federal agencies now have access to larger and richer collections of data to advance their mission. New technologies and techniques make it possible to collect, analyze and act on this data in new and more powerful ways. However, the significant upfront investments, extended procurements, scarce talent and deep expertise required to execute these strategies effectively are often insurmountable hurdles. The Accenture Insights Platform (AIP) for Government changes this equation. AIP brings together industryleading analytics technology and emerging best practices as a cloud-based service, redefining the role that analytics play within federal agencies. Working with AIP, agencies can more rapidly create and easily update agency or mission-specific solutions that deliver significant impact at a lower total cost of ownership. 2 Analytics Reinvented

5 CLOUD-FIRST AIP was built from the ground-up as a cloud-native platform deploy quicker, change more easily, scale faster. The Accenture Insights Platform for Government is hosted within the AWS GovCloud region, which enjoys Joint Authorization Board Provisional Authority-to-Operate (JAB P-ATO) and multiple Agency Authorizations (A-ATO) at the moderate and high impact level. Clients can also choose to host AIP for Government within the AWS US East or US West regions if they prefer. AIP is FedRAMP Ready today and has completed a successful FedRAMP JAB assessment with a Third-Party Assessment Organization (3PAO), Veris Group LLC (now Coalfire Systems). AIP is fully supported by a dedicated, U.S.-based team to provision, manage and maintain each unique client environment. Accenture brings together security best practices from Amazon Web Services, leading software vendors and its own leading cybersecurity practice to harden and secure the platform and achieve certification with key third-party standards. Robust user identity and access control provides both safeguards and auditability. Penetration and other vulnerability testing is used to protect against external attacks at the application, software and hardware levels and to validate network isolation. Security design patterns are used for compliance with data privacy laws, such as HIPAA and other regulations governing the use of PII. Centralized security monitoring and management encompasses both advanced threat analytics and integrated incident response.

6 GATEWAY TO INSIGHT-DRIVEN GOVERNMENT AIP is designed to facilitate a culture change in government, empowering agencies to move seamlessly from issue to insight to impact. With technology now an enabler and no longer an inhibitor, leaders can ask the big questions, such as: How can I better recruit, attract and retain scarce talent? How can I reduce operating costs without impacting service? How can I ensure the right resources are available to maintain force readiness? How do I accelerate regulatory approval without jeopardizing safety? How do I determine which threat to the homeland is most dangerous? How can I identify the right strategy to combat chronic disease? ACCELERATORS IN ACTION AIP s more than one hundred solution frameworks provide the foundation for creating strategic, agencyspecific enterprise solutions encompassing proven, industry-leading technologies, for applications such as: Predictive Fraud Detection: AIP s fraud detection framework helps public sector organizations automatically identify fraud and anomalous behaviors within incoming claims. Using customizable business rules, anomaly detection and predictive analytics, it detects and flags risky behaviors among claimants and assigns a risk score to each. This allows agencies to prioritize their riskiest claims and assign the most appropriate investigator where needed. The analytic frameworks include time series models, regressions, auto-regression, neural networks and generalized additive model (GAM) models. Federal Workforce Planning: An integrated analytical solution forecasts future labor and skill demands and optimizes fulfillment strategies. By tapping into actual workforce data, it provides more accurate, granular and actionable reporting and insight. As just one example, simulation modeling can be used to explore alternative recruiting and staffing scenarios. One government agency was able to improve utilization to produce cost savings equal to 4% of the overall agency budget. Advanced Analytics Applications Operationalize Model Human Workflow APP-CELERATE Democratize Analytics and integrate 3 rd parties Model library (Business User) Visual modelling (Part-time analyst) Direct engine access (Data Scientist) Rapid application development and runtime environment Formula Editor Page Editor Business Process The integrated Design Studio enables the fast, flexible configuration of advanced analytics applications within AIP. With Design Studio, business users, analysts and data scientists can work collaboratively to deploy analytics as part of a business process with a unique user experience for each target audience. 6 Analytics Reinvented
