Government & Public Sector Technology

Cities, counties, utilities, and public agencies carry real responsibility. When systems fail, people feel it. Payments stop. Permits stall. Dispatch slows down. Field teams lose visibility. Public confidence suffers.

At Centreville Tech, we help government and public sector organizations build dependable technology that supports their mission and serves their communities well. We are based in Centreville, Alabama, and we understand what it means to work alongside local leaders who are accountable to taxpayers and stakeholders.

If you are evaluating a new system, modernizing legacy software, expanding broadband access, or improving critical communications, we would welcome a conversation.

Modernizing Operations Without Disrupting Service

Many public sector challenges are not caused by a lack of software. They are caused by disconnected systems and manual processes.

Data lives in multiple databases. Reports are assembled by hand. Staff re-enter the same information in different systems. Important information moves through email instead of secure, automated workflows.

We design custom software and automation solutions that simplify operations and reduce risk. That might include:

• Replacing spreadsheets with secure web-based systems
• Automating approval workflows and internal routing
• Integrating finance, permitting, asset management, or reporting systems
• Building dashboards that give leadership clear, real-time visibility

Our goal is not to introduce complexity. It is to reduce it. We focus on practical solutions that improve efficiency, strengthen accountability, and free your team to focus on public service.

Custom Software Built for Public Responsibility

Off-the-shelf tools can work well in some cases. But many public agencies operate under unique rules, reporting requirements, and workflows that generic platforms do not fully support.

We build custom applications tailored to your operational and regulatory environment. That includes:

• Secure internal systems for staff
• Public-facing portals for citizens
• Data collection and reporting tools
• Integration with state or federal systems

Security and long-term maintainability are always part of the conversation. We design systems that are structured, well-documented, and supportable, so your agency is not left dependent on a black box.

Mobile Applications for Field Teams and Public Engagement

Field operations often rely on paper forms, delayed reporting, or disconnected devices. That creates delays and increases the chance of errors.

We develop mobile applications that allow inspectors, utility crews, first responders, and other field teams to capture and access information in real time. When designed correctly, mobile tools reduce administrative burden and improve response times.

For public-facing needs, we also build mobile apps that improve communication with residents, streamline service requests, and increase transparency.

Every mobile solution is built with reliability and security in mind, because public data deserves careful stewardship.

Private LTE / 5G and Critical Communications Infrastructure

Reliable connectivity is foundational to modern public infrastructure. In rural areas especially, agencies cannot always rely on commercial carriers for consistent coverage or network control.

We design and deploy private LTE and 5G networks for municipalities, utilities, public safety departments, and regional authorities. These networks support:

• Utility monitoring and SCADA systems
• Public safety communications and camera backhaul
• Smart city sensors and remote facilities
• Secure data transport between sites
• Rural broadband and last-mile expansion

Our private wireless deployments are built on Rapid5GS, our hardened EPC platform designed for real-world LTE environments. Rapid5GS provides a stable, well-supported packet core that gives your agency operational control without unnecessary complexity.

We also provide:

• Access to trusted hardware at highly competitive pricing, including Nokia AZQC and other carrier-grade radios
• Full CBRS SAS registration and signing support
• Spectrum coordination guidance
• Network design, RF planning, and deployment services
• Ongoing management and support

For agencies and partners seeking equipment or turnkey private wireless kits, we work closely with our marketplace at TheEdgeMile.com to source proven hardware and infrastructure components.

This is not experimental technology. It is practical, field-tested infrastructure designed to support public responsibility.

Rural Broadband Expansion Consulting and Delivery

Expanding broadband access is one of the most pressing challenges facing rural communities.

We assist counties, municipalities, and public-private partnerships with:

• Feasibility studies and network design
• Technology selection between fiber, fixed wireless, and private LTE
• Budget modeling and deployment planning
• Implementation oversight and delivery
• Integration with billing, provisioning, and monitoring systems

Because we have operated networks ourselves, we approach broadband projects with operational realism. We understand what it takes not just to deploy infrastructure, but to sustain it responsibly.

Responsible Automation for Public Service

Automation is not about replacing people. It is about supporting them.

We design automation that reduces repetitive work, improves accuracy, and creates consistent processes. That might include:

• Automated notifications and reminders
• Secure document generation and routing
• Integration between accounting, billing, and reporting systems
• Data synchronization across departments

Well-designed automation reduces errors and strengthens compliance. It also gives leadership clearer insight into how processes are functioning across the organization.

A Partner, Not Just a Vendor

Public sector projects require careful planning, transparency, and clear communication. We approach each engagement with respect for procurement processes, budget constraints, and the responsibility that public leaders carry.

We do not overpromise. We do not hide behind jargon. We work alongside your team to define clear goals, build the right solution, and stand behind what we deliver.

If your agency is exploring modernization, automation, mobile tools, private LTE/5G infrastructure, or rural broadband expansion, we would be glad to learn more about your objectives and discuss how we can help.
