MicroHealth won bronze in the Technology Team of the Year category for its Grants.gov project.
MicroHealth took on the task of modernizing Grants.gov, a crucial web application managed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The application, supporting 400+ Federal partners, 5,000+ programs, 900 million users, and over half a trillion dollars in Federal grants, faced challenges with outdated hardware, unsupported software, and security vulnerabilities.
MicroHealth’s solution involved improving user experience and infrastructure. They successfully migrated Grants.gov to the AWS Cloud, addressing security issues, reducing critical findings, and streamlining operations. This transformation exceeded expectations and garnered praise from stakeholders for the significant progress achieved.
Microhealth won bronze in the HR Department of the Year category for its Human Resources team.
MicroHealth’s HR department is a driving force in our success, shaping growth through strategic vision and unwavering dedication. With a people-first approach, they’ve created an inclusive workplace where over 65% of employees identify as people of color, fostering diversity through initiatives like bias training and revamped recruitment.

Magazine’s 5000 Regionals list. The HR department’s commitment to inclusivity, development, and leadership has steered our impressive growth journey.
