About Us
We're Coforma.
We’ve honed a modern, agile, user-centered approach that elevates human needs through thoughtfully-designed systems and products.
From articulating the unique needs of American Indian and Alaska Native patients through service blueprints that inform future health IT investments to improving the way governments consume COVID-19 mobility data through a more accessible and user-friendly tool, we’re dedicated to reshaping the way communities access and utilize technology products. Together.
Our cross-functional team works closely with each other and with our government, nonprofit, and commercial partners to research, design, and build better products and services.
Company Background
Founded in 2017, Coforma is co-owned by Eduardo Ortiz, CEO, and Ashleigh Axios, CXO. We employ more than 100 talented creators and business operations leaders. Our leadership has decades of experience in transforming and modernizing government digital services from a civic service mindset, and a strong record of developing innovative technology solutions for government, enterprise, and nonprofits.
We’re a minority-owned small business and 10% Veterans. To date, we’ve helped improve access to quality healthcare, connected families in crisis at the US border, researched improvements to Veteran care, provided greater access to civic tools, used technology to tell previously told untold stories, and more.
Civic Service
Our executive leadership has served the Obama White House as Creative Director and the US Digital Service as Creative Director. Our staff has worked across federal and state agencies. Together we value justice and equity, democratic institutions, accessibility, and accountability.
Industry Experience
Coforma co-founded the Digital Services Coalition and our CXO, Ashleigh Axios, is a past President of AIGA, the nation’s foremost professional design association. Our team’s experience in the private sector informs the digital modernization we’re helping build with our government partners at the US Department of Veterans Affairs, Health and Human Services, and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, among others. We understand digital design’s past and present. We’re defining its future with you.
