Schurz
Schurz is the headquarters community of the Walker River Paiute Tribe in Mineral County, Nevada, the Agai-Dicutta Numu, the trout-eater people, on the Walker River Reservation where the Walker River runs down toward Walker Lake. The community's life runs on tribal government and programs, ranching and farming along the river, fisheries and natural-resource stewardship, and tribal enterprise serving the Reservation and US-95 traffic. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the Walker River Paiute Tribe, its government, programs, and enterprises, on a sovereignty-first basis, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania, so the Nation owns its data and its systems, full stop.
Do you work with the Walker River Paiute Tribe and businesses in Schurz, Nevada?
Yes. Remote-first from our York County, Pennsylvania base, we work with the Walker River Paiute Tribe, its government, programs, and enterprises, and businesses in Schurz: nearly all of our work is done remotely, with on-site visits when a project warrants it, and every engagement is built so the Nation owns its systems outright.
Is this Schurz in Mineral County, Nevada?
Yes. This page is for Schurz, the headquarters of the Walker River Paiute Tribe on the Walker River Reservation, in Mineral County, Nevada along US-95. We're talking about the Nevada Schurz here.
Who owns the data and the systems you build for the Walker River Paiute Tribe?
The Nation does, outright. We build on Tribe-owned infrastructure and accounts, you hold the code and the data, and there is no vendor lock-in. We are a contractor doing the work, not an owner of anything we build, full stop.
How do you handle tribal data sovereignty?
Data sovereignty is the starting point, not an add-on. Tribal data lives in systems the Walker River Paiute Tribe owns and controls, with access governed by the Nation's own policies, and we design every platform so the Tribe can audit, export, and revoke access at any time. The Nation's data stays the Nation's, full stop.
Can you build tools that support the Numu (Northern Paiute) language?
Yes. We build platforms with Unicode support for the Numu language, including the orthography the Tribe uses, so language programs, signage, archives, and curriculum can capture and present the language correctly, and a community-language program owns and controls its own materials.
Can you help a Walker River Paiute tribal enterprise or program?
Yes. A tribal enterprise, a smoke shop or travel-and-fuel operation, a fisheries or natural-resource program, or a community program is exactly who we build operations, point-of-sale, case-management, grant-reporting, and recordkeeping tools for, all Nation-owned and built around how the program actually runs.
Can you help the tribal government with administration and services?
Yes. We build tribal-government platforms for enrollment, program administration, grants and compliance reporting, document management, and member services, with strict access controls, all on infrastructure the Nation owns and controls.
Can you help with fisheries, ranching, or natural-resource stewardship along the Walker River?
Yes. A fisheries, ranching, farming, or natural-resource program tied to the Walker River and Walker Lake is exactly who we build monitoring, sampling, herd, water, and reporting tools for, designed to tolerate a remote setting, all Nation-owned.
Where does AI help the Tribe and its enterprises?
In intake, scheduling, grant and compliance reporting, case management, recordkeeping, and follow-up, so tribal government, programs, and enterprises get real leverage without adding headcount, on systems the Nation owns and controls.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for the Tribe and its enterprises?
Managed EDR, MFA, immutable backups, phishing filtering, strict access controls, and a written recovery plan, plus secure payment handling for enterprises, all on Nation-owned infrastructure with the Tribe holding the keys. We set it up and manage it for you, with offline-tolerant design where it helps.
What does a custom platform cost the Tribe or a tribal enterprise?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; larger government or enterprise platforms scale from there, and grant funding often applies. We scope it to what the Nation actually needs and phase it so value lands early, with everything Nation-owned.
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 the Walker River Paiute Tribe owns the code and the data outright, with no lock-in, hosted on infrastructure the Nation owns and controls, full stop.
Can you help the Tribe and its enterprises get found online?
Yes. Local and regional SEO, content, and conversion work tuned for Schurz, the Walker River Reservation, and the wider Mineral County and US-95 market, so the people the Nation wants to reach find it first, on a site the Nation owns.
