Protecting Your Data, Preserving Public Trust.

City and County Governments Across Illinois Deserve an I.T. Partner Who Understands Compliance — and Actually Picks Up the Phone.

Local government organizations often carry a heavy load with limited support — trying to meet strict state and federal mandates while juggling tight budgets and skill gaps. Too often, that means falling behind on innovation and security. At Magoo, we step in to lighten that load, partnering with your I.T. team or filling in the gaps with specialized expertise. It’s about reducing risk, expanding your capabilities, and making sure your community stays protected and prepared.

About Us

Magoo specializes in government managed and co-managed information technology services, leveraging a combined forty years of experience. Our experience coupled with our current government partners ensures your agency the most comprehensive and updated list of requirements and skills to meet your agency needs.

Focusing on underserved local government, Magoo employes a robust I.T. division to meet the needs of their agency with the resources and skills of largest counterparts. In some cases, we supplement large government organizations to fill skills or manpower gaps.

Meeting The Technology Needs

Of Local Government

Regional & National Partnerships

We work hand-in-hand with trusted agencies like CISA and Illinois Cyber Navigators to strengthen your infrastructure and safeguard your election systems. These partnerships aren’t just for show — they ensure your organization meets, and often exceeds, today’s strict election security and compliance standards.

CJIS Compliant

CJIS compliance isn’t optional — it’s essential for law enforcement, judicial offices, and any department handling LEADS or NCIC data. At Magoo, every technician is fully CJIS-compliant, passing both pre-employment and fingerprint background checks with a host agency. We also follow the strict security controls CJIS requires, so you can trust your sensitive systems are in good hands. When it comes to your CJIS audits, we assist hand-in-hand to complete your audit with flying colors.

24/7 Services

Local governments run 24/7 — because public safety doesn’t punch a clock. That’s why we’re here around the clock too, delivering reliable support for your critical infrastructure, law enforcement, and Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs). No matter the hour, your mission comes first — and we’re right there with you to help carry it out.

Co-Op Service Model

Balancing tight budgets with rising cybersecurity demands is no small task. That’s where our co-op service model comes in — by pooling resources across government organizations, we lower costs while boosting your I.T. capabilities and security posture. It's smart, scalable support — built with your bottom line in mind. The more our Co-Op grows, the grater capability we provide to drive down costs.

Vendor Relationships

When your IT team truly knows your tools and vendors, everything runs smoother — and relationships get stronger. Because we specialize in local government, we’ve built deep familiarity with the software and systems you rely on every day. That means fewer headaches for your department heads and more time to focus on serving the public — not wrangling IT issues.

Strategic Planning

You’ll be paired with a dedicated vCIO — a trusted advisor who helps guide your organization through strategic planning, budgeting, policy development, and compliance with state and federal regulations. And with quarterly Technology Business Reviews (TBRs), you’ll always know where you stand — on track, on budget, and in control.

Compliance Programs

Compliance is always evolving — and for small governments, it can feel overwhelming. That’s why we offer hands-on support through our Policy & Compliance Workshops, FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) programs, and cybersecurity awareness training. Each one is designed to help your team meet — and often exceed — today’s toughest regulatory standards.

Meet Your Results Driven Numbers

Our outsourced IT services are built for government results — not just promises. We know the regulations. We know the risks. And we know how to keep your systems running smooth, secure, and compliant with state and federal mandates, day in and day out.
