Serving Veterans in Our Work
A Human-Centered Approach
The heart of Coforma’s mission-focused work is human-centered design, research, and product development. This means we involve real users in the research and design process for every project we undertake.
Veterans, their families, caregivers, transitioning service members, and VA service providers deserve thoughtful products, experiences, and support programs that treat them with respect, integrity, and care.
As we serve our Veteran focus area, we insist on engaging Veteran community members in the development of products and services that affect them.
Building Better Services
Veterans are and will always be a major focus area for Coforma. We hold SDVOSB certification and 8(a) certifications—both of which give us access to key set-asides for minority- and Veteran-owned small businesses. These have been instrumental in creating opportunities for us to center solutions around the Veterans’ diverse needs and deliver modernized care, benefits, and solutions.
We’re currently working on a multi-year, multifaceted contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to improve the standard of healthcare for Veterans based on their input and lived experiences. Our team members, partners, and product users are all integrated in our values-centered approach to making things that matter.
“Coforma’s commitment to working with organizations such as the VA enhances my sense of belonging to an organization whose values highlight humanity . . . and that’s something I believe in.”A Coforma Employee and Veteran, 2024
