Mathtech’s Frank Nestore on AI, Data, and Doing More with Less in Government

In this episode of The Peel, David Blackburn sits down with Frank Nestore, Vice President of Mathtech, a 50-year-old employee-owned consulting firm making a strategic move into the federal space after decades of success with state governments and commercial clients.

Frank discusses how Mathtech is bringing proven modernization strategies, pragmatic AI adoption frameworks, and data-driven insights to agencies navigating increased demands, shrinking budgets, and rapidly evolving technology. From human services and taxation to transportation and fraud prevention, Mathtech’s focus is on use-case-first transformation, where AI isn’t just a buzzword, but a carefully aligned tool used to solve real, mission-critical problems.

With a strong emphasis on clean data as the on-ramp to AI, agile pilots, stakeholder engagement, and aligning tech efforts with measurable outcomes, Frank shares how Mathtech helps agencies modernize without losing sight of the human element. He also explores how AI can address rampant fraud and identity abuse and why fostering a culture of alignment and accountability is just as important as the tools themselves.
