It’s time for citizens to get better service from all levels of Government, whether that’s self-service through an AI agent, or an interaction with a human agent assisted by AI on the digital channel of their choice.

While Quiq is best known for its enterprise-grade agentic AI solutions, it initially launched as a digital messaging platform that connects organizations with their citizens and students across popular channels, including web chat, SMS, Facebook Messenger, X, WhatsApp and Apple Messages for business. From Large Language Models, Generative AI and now Agentic AI, Quiq has advanced its technology while maintaining strict standards for safety, security and citizen service. The company has transformed its original messaging platform into an AI Contact Center, featuring AI-powered capabilities that enhance citizen experience and speed up resolution times, whether interactions occur with AI agents or human agents assisted by AI.
“We chose to partner with Quiq as they offer what Public Sector organizations need to modernize their service channels safely with AI,” said Michael Adams, Program Executive for AI Solutions at Carahsoft. “Quiq has created a rapid agentic AI builder with its AI Studio, which includes all the tools, integrations and guardrails needed throughout the AI development life cycle, as well as the real-time observability and analytics necessary once AI Agents are deployed and scaled. The availability of AI Studio through our reseller partners enables Public Sector engineers to have complete control and insight into their AI solutions, empowering them to confidently embrace game-changing technology and deliver the timesaving, self-service citizens expect today.”
Quiq’s agentic AI solutions, AI Studio and AI Contact Center, are available through Carahsoft’s SEWP V contracts NNG15SC03B and NNG15SC27B, ITES-SW2 Contract W52P1J-20-D-0042, NASPO ValuePoint Master Agreement #AR2472, TIPS Contract #220105, OMNIA Partners Contract #R191902, E&I Contract #EI00063~2021MA and The Quilt Master Service Agreement Number MSA05012019-F.
