Elections

Maxim Consulting is a company dedicated to providing the highest quality professional services in the field of automated Election Management Systems. Few entities can boast the experience in Statewide Election Management Systems that Maxim Consulting can with over 30,000 hours of direct experience.

A shining example of how a statewide system can provide uniform standards, stability and accuracy is in the State of Oklahoma. In 1989, the Oklahoma State Election Board began the installation of the Oklahoma Election Management System (OEMS). OEMS was to be the first comprehensive statewide election management system encompassing all of the functions of the electoral process from Voter Registration through Election Results. Maxim co-founders Shawn Teeters and John Rose were both instrumental in the initial design, development and deployment of OEMS as employees of Accenture (then Andersen Consulting). Since then, both have continued to support and enhance the system either as independent contractors, or as Maxim Consulting.

The Help America Vote Act means every jurisdiction must bring its devices, procedures, computer applications, and most importantly, people up to a new standard of performance. This process will be daunting. There will literally be hundreds of steps to perform and countless decisions to be made to successfully transition to the new Federal mandates. Few states have the necessary experience to oversee the design and implementation of election technology to meet the need for statewide requirements. Unfortunately, even fewer vendors are qualified to assist them.

The professionals of Maxim Consulting have the expertise required to ensure you take the correct path in your new journey.
