Technology Design, Integration & Support for State & Local Government

Helping state agencies, municipalities, transit authorities, and public information offices design, integrate, and support reliable broadcast, streaming, and public records media systems.

What We Do

Broadcast, Media Workflow & Technology Solutions

State and local government media operations exist where transparency, public access, and budget realities meet. A council meeting that drops offline mid-stream is a trust issue, not just a technical issue. A PEG channel that fails the public records audit is a legal exposure. A streaming archive that no one can search is a citizen who can’t hold government accountable. The systems behind public-sector media need to work the way public service does — reliably, accountably, and within the budget cycle.
CHESA helps state and local government agencies design, integrate, and support the broadcast, streaming, and public records media systems that public service depends on.

Council Chamber & Legislative Broadcast Systems

Design and integrate dependable broadcast environments for council meetings, legislative sessions, public hearings, and committee proceedings, with reliable streaming and archive integration.

PEG Channel Modernization

Plan and execute the transition from legacy PEG infrastructure to modern streaming and broadcast workflows without disrupting community programming.

Public Records Streaming & Archive

Capture, archive, and provide public access to government media in formats that meet state retention requirements and citizen transparency expectations.

Discovery & Design Before the Build

Document current systems, map workflows, identify gaps, and create a phased roadmap that fits inside multi-year budget cycles.

Systems Integration That Bridges Broadcast & Municipal IT

Connect production, streaming, archive, and distribution systems with existing municipal IT infrastructure — without forcing one team to learn the other’s job.

Service Level Agreements with Public-Sector Response

Keep public-facing media systems running with proactive maintenance, defined response tiers, and procurement-friendly contract structures.

What CHESA Makes Possible for State & Local Government

Tangible outcomes our public-sector customers achieve once their media systems are designed, integrated, and supported the right way.
Stream public meetings reliably

Deliver council meetings, hearings, and legislative sessions to citizens at home without infrastructure failure becoming the story.

Archive the public record

Capture and preserve government media in formats that satisfy state retention requirements and support open-records requests.

Modernize within budget cycles

Replace aging PEG and broadcast infrastructure through phased transitions that fit inside multi-year capital plans.

Bridge broadcast and municipal IT

Connect media systems to the IT infrastructure your municipality already runs, without forcing teams to retrain.

Support transparency mandates

Make public records findable, accessible, and shareable in ways that satisfy citizen expectations and regulatory requirements.

Built for the Demands of Modern Government Media

State and local government media teams are doing more with less than they were a decade ago. They are managing broadcast operations, streaming, archiving, public records compliance, and citizen-facing distribution — often with one or two staff and a budget that has to be defended every fiscal year. The systems behind that work need to be reliable, auditable, and built to last through the next several budget cycles.

CHESA helps state and local agencies create systems that are:

Reliable

Designed for the daily reality of public meetings, hearings, and legislative proceedings that cannot fail.

Auditable

Built to meet state public records, retention, and transparency requirements with defensible documentation.

Budget-Aware

Engineered for phased deployment that fits within multi-year capital plans and procurement realities.

Integrated

Connected across production, streaming, archive, and municipal IT systems — not bolted on.

Public-Focused

Structured around the work government media teams actually do — serving citizens, supporting officials, and preserving the public record.

Design a Media Workflow That Supports Your Mission

CHESA works collaboratively with state and local government agencies to understand how your team operates today, where current systems are creating friction, and what public service requires going forward.

Whether you are starting with a discovery engagement, planning a PEG modernization, transitioning to IP-based broadcast, building a public records archive, or establishing an ongoing support strategy, CHESA can help you move forward with clarity.

Common Challenges
We Help State & Local Government Solve

“Our council meetings drop offline mid-stream and citizens lose trust.”

CHESA can assess your production, encoding, and distribution chain end-to-end, identify the failure points, and design infrastructure built for the reliability public meetings demand.

“Our PEG infrastructure is end-of-life.”

CHESA can plan and execute a phased transition from legacy PEG to modern streaming and broadcast workflows, preserving community programming throughout.

“State public records retention requires archive integrity we don’t have.”

CHESA can implement media asset management and archive strategies that meet state retention requirements, with immutable audit trails and recoverable formats.

“We can’t budget a single-year infrastructure replacement.”

CHESA’s Discovery & Design process produces a phased technology roadmap that fits inside multi-year capital plans and procurement timelines.

“Our IT team handles municipal systems, not broadcast.”

CHESA bridges broadcast engineering and municipal IT, so your team doesn’t need to become broadcast engineers overnight.

“We need a partner who understands public-sector procurement.”

CHESA holds federal contract vehicles and works regularly inside state and local procurement processes, including cooperative purchasing agreements where applicable.
