Ridgeview
Ridgeview is a small community in Dewey County, South Dakota within the Cheyenne River Reservation, in West-River ranch country. Its life centers on the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe's community and programs, ranching, and the families and small organizations serving the area. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe, its programs and enterprises, and the Ridgeview 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.

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.
Can you build Lakota-language (Lakȟótiyapi) tools for the Ridgeview community?
Yes. We can build interfaces, content, forms, and language-preservation or education tools that support Lakȟótiyapi alongside English, scoped to how the Tribe, the schools, and the community want to use them.
Can you help a Cheyenne River tribal program in Ridgeview, health, education, housing, or social services?

Yes. A tribal enterprise or a local ranch or service business in Ridgeview is exactly who we build 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 Ridgeview organization or business?
In intake, scheduling, case management, recordkeeping, member or customer email, and follow-up, so a tribal program or local organization gets real leverage without adding headcount, while keeping data under its own control.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for a Ridgeview 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 rules. We set it up and manage it for you, with the Nation retaining control.
What does a custom platform cost a Ridgeview organization?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what the Tribe, program, or business 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, that ownership and data sovereignty are the starting point, not an afterthought.
