Sutter Health Park Just Got Smarter — From Dugout to Parking Lot. We’re proud to announce the full NXTFusion™ sensor deployment at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento, bringing autonomous AI intelligence to the venue as we start the 2026–27 baseball season. Starting this season, NXTFusion™ is deliver real-time AI-powered visibility across the entire venue footprint — managing traffic flow, protecting revenue, securing the parking lot, and keeping fans and staff safe across all the events on the calendar. And the calendar is packed. Beyond the Athletics (soon to be the Las Vegas Athletics) and Sacramento River Cats baseball, Sutter Health Park hosts some of the most dynamic events in the region: -Savannah Bananas — bringing their viral brand of baseball entertainment to Sacramento fans -Shamrock Marathon — one of the region’s premier running events flowing through and around the venue - Perfect Game tournaments — elite youth baseball where every play matters and every parking spot counts Each of these events brings unique crowd dynamics, traffic patterns, and operational demands. NXTFusion™ adapts in real time — automatically — so our operations partners at Ace Parking can manage it all with fewer staff, less guesswork, and zero revenue leakage. This is what a fully sensored venue looks like: AI-powered vehicle counting and traffic orchestration, Real-time anomaly detection and employee safety alerts, POS Sentry revenue accuracy across all cashier-managed operations, Predictive crowd flow — before problems become incidents. We didn’t build NXTFusion™ for a single game. We built it for the full season, the doubleheader, the marathon morning, and the Friday night lights of youth baseball. See Everything. Miss Nothing. Respond Instantly. Sutter Health Park is now one of the most intelligently managed venues in Major and Minor League Baseball. And we’re just getting started.

Many customers in the Federal space have complex disparate data across focus areas. Decisions are driven based on combining data sources, and making those decisions at the data level can help drive faster and more accurate answers for downstream applications and LLMs. In this blog post, Seth M. explores how "data gravity"—the increasing difficulty and cost of moving large datasets—exacerbates challenges, where applying complex business rules often leads to latency and infrastructure strain. To counter this, the Seth highlights an integrated approach using Corticon.js for decision authoring and MarkLogic as a data hub. Corticon.js empowers business analysts to build decision logic via intuitive tools like Corticon.js Studio: defining vocabularies from schemas, crafting rulesheets for conditional logic, sequencing via ruleflows, and validating with ruletests. This compiles into portable JavaScript for seamless deployment. MarkLogic complements this by ingesting data through Flux and triggering inline evaluations on document arrival, enriching records with decisions, audit messages, and traces—without any data movement. This preserves lineage, boosts throughput, and ensures a single source of truth. Key benefits include transparent, auditable decisions for compliance; reduced costs from eliminating data transfers; and enhanced efficiency for sectors like public programs (e.g., automating eligibility and claims). For LLMs and apps, an explainability dashboard visualizes policies and traces, while an AI-in-the-loop chatbot leverages Retrieval-Augmented Generation from MarkLogic to deliver grounded, context-rich responses.

"City leaders from Philadelphia to Chicago , eager to revive downtown economies, are watching Sacramento for cues: announce a sweeping return, placate landlords and transit agencies, then trade flexibility for delayed raises, trimmed stipends or slower pension growth. If these moves spread, 2025 could mark the year that desk presence became standard currency in public-sector bargaining."

The tale of two cities: At the recent Workforce Development Council of Seattle-King County– Strategic Business Solutions and Harborbridge shared how we’re addressing one of the region’s most pressing challenges: a shortage of skilled workers to deliver multi-billion-dollar infrastructure projects. In the midst of significant tech layoffs, major infrastructure investments are underway—Sound Transit’s $64B expansion, King County’s $10B wastewater upgrades, and electrification of Washington State Ferries—the demand for engineers, planners, tradespeople, and project managers has never been higher. Our approach? Upskilling and reskilling programs that transition displaced tech talent and strengthen local capacity for contractors and trades. From Infrastructure Management Essentials to IT-to-OT training, we’re creating pathways that prepare workers for high-demand roles while driving equity and economic growth. The need is too large for any single entity to solve. Collaboration between public and private partners is essential, and SBS is proud to work alongside organizations like Jacobs and Harborbridge to make it happen.

3 Minute Playbook: Seattle WA - 11th Largest for Construction Spending The Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue MSA ranks as the 11th largest U.S. market for construction spending, projected at $38.2 billion by 2030, driven by its leadership in technology, aerospace, and maritime sectors. With a population of 4 million and home to Microsoft, Amazon, and Boeing, this Pacific Northwest hub features 250 megawatts of data center capacity— signaling a bright future in advancing AI and cloud computing. In an economy where Florida, Texas, and California capture 30% of all construction spending, Seattle demands focused prioritization across industrial, infrastructure, and tech projects. BiltData.ai's Lead(er) integrates construction expertise with predictive intelligence for rentals, fleet, parts, and service, offering a map-driven tool that's simple, serious, and unmatched—enabling you to sense demand, know triggers, and hit your sales goals with confidence. Delving into the figures: residential spending at $15.28 billion supports rising housing needs; commercial at $11.46 billion expands urban centers in Seattle and Bellevue; industrial at $7.64 billion strengthens aerospace and manufacturing; and infrastructure at $3.82 billion improves connectivity in King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties. Data centers leverage fiber networks and a skilled workforce for competitive advantage.

One resource I consistently recommend to California nonprofits: the California Grants Portal. After almost a decade in grant writing, it stands out as one of the strongest state-centralized grants portal I’ve encountered. It’s intuitive, comprehensive, and genuinely useful, and is highlighted as a core tool in my California-based nonprofit trainings. If your organization is interested in #StateGrants, this is an excellent first stop. #NonprofitLeadership #GrantWriting #CapacityBuilding

Free Taxes! The Earned Income Tax Credit is America's largest anti-poverty program, but tax preparers take up to 20% of tax payer's EITC for filing fees or rapid anticipation loans. VITA sites are safe and know what to do to protect individuals. Share with your friends or networks that might need help during tax time.
