Clutch’s leadership brings extensive public-sector experience to this initiative. CEO James Regan and Head of Client Delivery Hayley Figeroid are both former appointed state executives who helped shape California’s early AI policies and pilot projects. Their firsthand understanding of government operations, along with Clutch’s proven track record in technology enablement, equips the firm to guide agencies in adopting AI tools thoughtfully, effectively, and accountably.
As a key part of this effort, Clutch has developed an AI Readiness Service to prepare teams in optimizing data, people, and processes, ensuring a solid foundation for successful AI implementation.
In the coming weeks, Clutch and Google Public Sector will begin engaging early-adopter state departments. These initial projects will help teams evaluate high-value use cases, enhance workforce readiness, and seamlessly integrate AI solutions into existing processes and technologies, ultimately improving outcomes for California’s citizens.
