ROVQIX works remotely with Boston organisations across healthcare, biotech, higher education and B2B SaaS, with Eastern-morning overlap. These sectors share two constants: accessibility obligations and careful handling of sensitive data.
Boston projects tend to come with a compliance conversation attached — accessibility for universities, data handling for healthcare and biotech. Both are engineering requirements, not a legal appendix.
We're online
Working standard
Sensitive records
Signed where applicable
WCAG 2.2 AA with real keyboard and screen reader testing — required for institutional procurement, not optional.
Access control at the data layer, audit logging, minimal exposure and defined retention from the start.
Large content structures with genuine information architecture, search and multi-author publishing.
Secure portals for scheduling, documents, forms and messaging, designed for users under stress.
Multi-tenant platforms with the roles, logging and controls institutional buyers require.
Conformance reports, security questionnaire responses and data flow documentation for institutional review.
Because universities, hospitals and publicly funded organisations are subject to enforcement, and their procurement processes check.
| Need | How we handle it |
|---|---|
| Sensitive data | Access control at the data layer, audit logged |
| Development data | Seeded or anonymised, never production copies |
| Access control | Named accounts, least privilege, revocable |
| Documentation | Data flow diagrams and control descriptions |
| Agreements | BAAs and DPAs signed where applicable |
| Certification | We cover technical controls, not policy or audit |
We are explicit about the boundary. Engineering controls are ours; policy, training and formal certification sit with you and your compliance advisors.
Universities and hospitals have more stakeholders than a startup has employees. We plan for it: a single decision-maker identified upfront, structured review rounds with deadlines, and written decisions circulated so consensus is recorded rather than re-litigated.
Projects that slip in these sectors almost always slip on review cycles rather than on engineering. Naming that at kickoff usually prevents it.
We provide accessibility conformance documentation, security questionnaire responses and data flow documentation. For a formally signed VPAT, an independent accessibility firm is the right route and we remediate against their findings.
We architect systems that handle it, using seeded or anonymised data during development. Where protected health information is involved we sign a BAA and scope access narrowly.
Yes. We are used to multi-month procurement, committee review and security questionnaires, and we do not chase or apply pressure during it.
No. We are a remote studio based in India working with Boston clients, with Eastern-morning overlap and US-standard contracts.
How we think about this work, in more depth.
Boston
A 30-minute call, then a written proposal with scope, price and timeline within two to three working days. No retainer required to get a real number, and no obligation if the answer is that we are not the right fit.
