Carahsoft, Coalfire, and Google Public Sector Partner on FedRAMP Accelerator to Enable SaaS Providers Selling into the Federal Government
June 2023 by Marc Jacob
Coalfire, IT solutions provider Carahsoft Technology Corp., and Google Public Sector have entered into a partnership to accelerate FedRAMP Authority-to-Operate (ATO) certification and public sector opportunities for customers deployed on Google Cloud. Coalfire’s FedRAMP expertise and offerings will be bundled and delivered to Google Cloud’s state, federal, and institutional clients by Carahsoft, one of the public sector’s largest solution providers and its ecosystem of reseller partners and systems integrators.
The collaboration enables Google Public Sector and Carahsoft clients to accelerate their digital transformation and enter new federal markets through Coalfire’s FedRAMP advisory services. These offerings allow customers to quickly and cost-effectively understand gaps and build required architectures and documentation to achieve FedRAMP authorization, reducing the historically exorbitant financial barriers to entry that FedRAMP was known for. Once clients achieve ATO, they are positioned to sell across multiple agencies (instead of just one), and with the Coalfire/Google Public Sector/Carahsoft solution, clients retain ownership of all technology deliverables.
