Securing Land Titles and Preventing Fraud for a State Government
Industry: State Government, Real Estate
Client Overview: A state land registry office was struggling with a paper-based system that was inefficient, prone to errors, and vulnerable to sophisticated property fraud. The process for title transfers took weeks, involving multiple manual verification steps and creating significant administrative overhead. They needed a modern solution to create a single, secure source of truth for property ownership.
"The transparency and security this system provides are revolutionary for us. We've not only streamlined our operations but have fundamentally increased public confidence in our records. Errna was a true partner in this transformation." - Jenna Raynor, Director of Records, State Land Registry
Key Challenges:
- High incidence of fraudulent title claims.
- Lengthy and costly title transfer process (average 30 days).
- Lack of a single, easily verifiable record of ownership history.
- Significant manual effort required for record-keeping and audits.
Our Solution:
We designed and deployed a permissioned blockchain platform based on Hyperledger Fabric to create an immutable digital ledger for all land titles.
- Developed smart contracts to automate the title transfer process, enforcing legal requirements automatically.
- Created a secure portal for government officials, real estate agents, and citizens to access and verify title information with appropriate permissions.
- Integrated the platform with existing GIS and identity verification systems for seamless data validation.
- Digitized historical records and migrated them to the blockchain to create a complete and auditable chain of ownership.

Streamlining Grant Distribution for a Federal Agency
Industry: Federal Government, Public Finance
Client Overview: A federal agency responsible for distributing billions in grants annually faced challenges with transparency, compliance, and timely fund allocation. The existing process involved complex manual tracking and reporting, leading to delays and difficulties in auditing how funds were used by recipients. The agency needed a system to automate compliance and provide a clear, real-time audit trail.
"The ability to track funds in real-time and automate compliance has been a game-changer. We can now ensure taxpayer money is being used effectively and transparently. The expertise from Errna was invaluable." - Marcus Dyer, CFO, Agency for Public Welfare
Key Challenges:
- Lack of real-time visibility into fund utilization by grantees.
- Complex and time-consuming manual auditing and compliance checks.
- Delays in fund disbursement due to bureaucratic hurdles.
- Risk of fund misuse and non-compliance with grant terms.
Our Solution:
We developed a blockchain-based grant management platform using smart contracts to govern the entire funding lifecycle.
- Created smart contracts that automatically release funds in tranches based on the achievement of predefined, verifiable milestones.
- Built a shared ledger accessible to the agency, auditors, and grantees, providing a single source of truth for all transactions.
- Integrated with external data oracles to automatically verify milestone completion (e.g., project reports, delivery confirmations).
- Developed a dashboard for real-time monitoring of fund allocation, spending, and project progress across the entire grant portfolio.

Creating a Verifiable Digital Identity System for Citizen Services
Industry: State Government, Public Services
Client Overview: A state's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) wanted to move beyond physical licenses and create a secure digital identity for citizens. Their goal was to simplify identity verification for various public and private services (e.g., voting, accessing healthcare records, opening bank accounts) while giving citizens more control over their personal information and enhancing privacy.
"Errna helped us build a future-proof identity system. Our citizens now have a secure, convenient way to prove their identity, and our inter-agency collaboration has improved dramatically." - Evelyn Morton, State CIO
Key Challenges:
- Reliance on physical documents that are easily lost or forged.
- Citizens had to repeatedly provide the same information to different agencies.
- Concerns over data privacy and the security of a centralized identity database.
- Inefficient and costly in-person identity verification processes.
Our Solution:
We engineered a self-sovereign digital identity platform on a permissioned blockchain, allowing citizens to manage their own verified credentials in a secure digital wallet.
- Developed a mobile app (digital wallet) where citizens can store and present verified credentials (e.g., proof of age, address, driver's license).
- Created a system where the DMV acts as a trusted issuer of credentials, cryptographically signing them onto the blockchain.
- Built a verification framework allowing other agencies and authorized third parties to request and validate credentials with the citizen's explicit consent.
- Ensured the architecture was compliant with data privacy regulations by storing minimal data on-chain and keeping personal information under the user's control.
