Evidence, analytics, and responsible AI to improve outcomes.

Mathematica is a strategic partner to federal agencies working to solve urgent social challenges. We help leaders move from questions to confident decisions by combining rigorous evidence, advanced analytics, and deep policy expertise.

Our teams work alongside government partners to evaluate programs, modernize data systems, and strengthen governance—so policies deliver real results. Using approaches that range from rapid-cycle learning to advanced analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, we generate objective insights that support faster, more informed, evidence-based decision-making.

With decades of experience in research and evaluation, Mathematica has built and stewarded large-scale data assets that underpin responsible analytics and AI. This foundation allows us to partner with agencies on data strategy, interoperability, quality, and management—helping them turn complex data into measurable improvements in people’s lives.
