Standing up enterprise data governance for a virtual healthcare provider

Challenge

A leading virtual healthcare provider had pockets of data governance scattered across the business but no unified, cross-enterprise program. The gaps were operationally tolerable but strategically blocking: continued growth into new government contracts required conformance to a stringent set of regulatory requirements, including HIPAA, FedRAMP, NIST, SOC 2/3, and CMMC, and the ability to demonstrate consistent governance across every part of the company.

Growth through acquisition added a second compounding pressure. New data sources were arriving on a regular cadence, and any governance program built for the current footprint would need to absorb new business units without slowing the company down. The company needed a holistic, scalable program that could serve both compliance and growth.

Solution

OneSix opened the engagement with design, delivering an enterprise-wide assessment and blueprint that consolidated scattered governance work into a single corporate program aligned to the company's regulatory and growth goals. The blueprint defined the future-state operating model, mapped current gaps against the controls required by HIPAA, FedRAMP, NIST, SOC 2/3, and CMMC, and laid out a sequenced roadmap for cross-enterprise rollout.

OneSix then built the program, architecting a secure governance platform that enables easy, controlled access to data and launching a pilot on a meaningful cross-section of the business to prove regulatory readiness in production conditions. The pilot served as both a working reference implementation and a proof point for the broader rollout.

To support continued investment, OneSix developed an ROI model that quantified the financial contribution of governance to the company, framing the program in the language the business uses to make capital decisions. The result is a regulatory-ready governance platform, a clear path to enterprise-wide scale, validated financial impact, and a foundation designed to absorb new data sources from acquisitions without slowing growth.
