Software engineering firm's data-first approach helps cut OESC reporting time from months to hours
OKLAHOMA CITY (Dec 5, 2025) – Phase 2, an Oklahoma-based software engineering and AI consultancy, was highlighted in a Google Cloud blog for its role in transforming the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission's (OESC) data infrastructure. The modernization project reduced data reporting times from six months to hours while building a foundation for the agency's complete digital transformation.
The achievement was highlighted in a recent Google Cloud blog post detailing how OESC moved beyond its 40-year-old mainframe system to a modern, cloud-based data platform built on Google Cloud's BigQuery. The project enabled OESC to empower teams with self-service analytics, dramatically improve data accuracy.
"When approaching large digital transformations, migrating, transforming, and leveraging data can be one of the most challenging aspects," said Shane Kempton, President & CTO of Phase2. "Usually it's the last part migrated, or the part that causes major delays in launching transformed features. We took a different approach and began with the end in mind with OESC's data platform. By leveraging Google Cloud's huge array of tools specifically targeting data platforms, we've been able to create both early wins for OESC's business and ensure the full digital transformation won't be delayed by the state of the data."
