Busby
Busby is a Northern Cheyenne community on the western part of the Northern Cheyenne Reservation, in Big Horn County, Montana along US Highway 212 in the pine-and-prairie country between the Crow and Northern Cheyenne lands. Its life centers on the Northern Cheyenne Tribe's community and programs, the Busby schools, ranching, and the families and organizations serving the area. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the Northern Cheyenne Tribe, its programs, schools, and enterprises, and the Busby area's organizations and businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip. When we build for the Nation, the Nation owns its data and its systems, full stop.
Do you work with the Northern Cheyenne community and businesses in Busby, Montana?
Yes. Remote-first from our York County, Pennsylvania base, and being a Northern Cheyenne Reservation community in Big Horn County is no obstacle: nearly all of our work is done remotely, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. A Busby client, tribal program, school, or local organization, gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
If you build a system for the Northern Cheyenne Tribe, who owns the data?
The Nation does, full stop. We respect tribal data sovereignty: the Tribe owns its data and its systems outright, the data stays under the Nation's control, and there is no vendor lock-in. You can take the platform and its data with you at any time.
Can you respect tribal data sovereignty and the Tribe's governance of its own information?
Yes. That's foundational to how we work with a Nation. We build so that data ownership, hosting, access, and governance stay with the Northern Cheyenne Tribe, and we document it plainly so there's never ambiguity about who controls what.
Can you build Cheyenne-language (Tsetsehestahese) tools for the Busby community?
Yes. We can build interfaces, content, forms, and language-preservation or education tools that support the Cheyenne language alongside English, scoped to how the Tribe, the schools, and the community want to use them.
Can you help the Busby schools, and who would own it?
Yes, and the school owns it. We build student-information, enrollment, scheduling, communication, and reporting tools around how the school runs, and the school and the Nation own the data and the system outright, with student privacy and security designed in.
Can you help a Northern Cheyenne tribal program in Busby, health, education, housing, or social services?
Yes. A tribal health, education, housing, or social program is exactly who we build case-management, enrollment, scheduling, reporting, and operations platforms for, around how the Nation runs the work, with data kept under tribal control.
Can you help a Busby ranch or tribal enterprise?
Yes. A ranch or a tribal enterprise near Busby is exactly who we build herd, operations, scheduling, inventory, and customer or member platforms for, around how the operation actually runs, with the Tribe owning the result and the data when we build for the Nation.
Where does AI help a Busby organization or business?
In intake, scheduling, case management, recordkeeping, member or customer email, and follow-up, so a tribal program, school, or local organization gets real leverage without adding headcount, while keeping data under its own control.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for a Busby tribal or local organization?
Managed EDR, MFA, immutable backups, phishing filtering, and a written recovery plan, plus secure payment handling and access controls aligned to the Tribe's data-governance and student-privacy rules. We set it up and manage it for you, with the Nation retaining control.
What does a custom platform cost a Busby organization?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what the Tribe, school, or organization actually needs and phase it so value lands early.
How long until it's running, and who owns the code and data?
Usually eight to ten weeks to the first live workflow, then iterative improvements from there, and you own the code and the data outright, with no lock-in. For the Nation and its schools, that ownership and data sovereignty are the starting point, not an afterthought.
Can you help a Busby organization or business get found online?
Yes. Local SEO, outreach, and communication tools tuned for Busby, the Northern Cheyenne Reservation, and the wider Big Horn County area, so the people, students, and families searching find you first.
