U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)

The Department of Veterans Affairs needed a modern, unified case management platform capable of integrating with decades-old legacy health systems — while meeting the strictest federal security standards. As Salesforce CTO on this engagement, Cloud Structures led the architecture, implementation, and compliance validation of a mission-critical platform serving hundreds of thousands of veterans nationwide.

The core challenge was bidirectional real-time data exchange between Salesforce Health Cloud and VA's legacy health record systems operating within the AWS GovCloud (US) environment — all under FedRAMP High controls. Any failure in data accuracy or availability had direct impact on veteran healthcare outcomes.

What We Delivered

Designed and validated a secure document sharing architecture under FedRAMP High authorization controls, ensuring full NIST 800-53 compliance at the data layer
Implemented HIPAA-compliant unified case worker interfaces, enabling VA staff to view, update, and action veteran health records across previously siloed systems from a single screen
Built intelligent case worker automation using Salesforce Flow and Process Builder to route, prioritize, and escalate veteran cases based on urgency, region, and care type
Authored the full compliance documentation package including System Security Plans (SSP), data flow diagrams, and authorization boundary documentation required for FedRAMP ATO

National Credit Union Administration (NCUA)

The National Credit Union Administration — the independent federal agency that charters and supervises federal credit unions — required a standardized, auditable Salesforce environment to govern regulated financial operations across its national examination and supervision programs.
