Getting a High-Stakes Platform Rollout Right From the Start
Subsalt builds powerful privacy-preserving data sharing technology. When UT Southwestern undertook a broad rollout across multiple user groups and use cases, they approached it intentionally — bringing in Kayvea to make sure the implementation landed the way it should.
Kayvea partnered with Subsalt to map platform capabilities to UTSW's specific workflows, permissions structures, and user groups. We built operational documentation and governance guidelines tailored to how the organization works, and translated technical capabilities into clear, actionable processes for the full range of stakeholders who would be using the system.
The result was a rollout where every user group knew what they had, how to use it, and what good looked like — from day one. Onboarding moved efficiently, workflows were consistent across teams, and the implementation demonstrated the full value of what the Subsalt platform can do in a complex, high-stakes environment.

Partnering on Complex NIH Research Infrastructure
Large-scale NIH research programs involve enormous operational complexity — multiple sites, multiple vendors, multiple data streams, and stakeholders who speak very different languages. RTI International brings deep research expertise to these programs. Kayvea supplements the RTI team and they collectively bring the operational and informatics layer that keeps everything connected and moving.
Together we've worked across two high-profile programs — the NIH Down Syndrome Cohort Development Program (DS-CDP) and Nutrition for Precision Health (NPH), powered by All of Us. Kayvea embedded directly in the project teams, supporting vendor coordination, systems design, data literacy tools, data sharing documentation and data governance.
The collaboration reflects what works best in complex research environments: deep subject matter expertise paired with someone who can translate it into operational reality and keep the infrastructure performing the way it needs to.

Turning a Data Strategy Into Something Executable
A major global research organization had developed an ambitious enterprise data strategy. On paper, it was strong. The question was whether it would hold up once real teams started executing against it.
Kayvea evaluated the strategy through the lens of implementation practicality — assessing where it aligned with real-world workflows and where it didn't. We surfaced gaps that could slow adoption, identified operational constraints the strategy hadn't fully accounted for, and offered concrete recommendations grounded in how the organization actually operates.
Leadership came away with a clearer picture of what execution would actually require — and significantly reduced the risk of discovering those gaps after rollout had already begun.
