Who we are
Dayakar (Day) Veerlapati
President and CEO
From the President’s desk:
As the economy tests the mettle of many companies, S2Tech stands tough--made of the right, durable stuff. Our mettle is anchored on the core values of always doing the right thing, delighting the client, seeking excellence in every task, and instilling quality into all our processes. We work creatively with our clients to provide them quality solutions at the best possible value--never taking any shortcuts.
History shows us that those who bond together during challenging times succeed. They find ways to partner to overcome any obstacles. That is why S2Tech has become a valuable partner to companies around the world. Proactive in its approach, S2Tech bridges the world with technology, finding ways to work smarter AND less expensively. Our goal has been to help other companies succeed, and it is a goal we consistently exceed.
Over the past 12 years, S2Tech has grown and experienced many triumphs. Recently we were recognized as one of the Top 20 Minority Business Enterprise Companies in Missouri. Despite tough times, we’ve continue to delight our clients and sustain a quality workforce across the globe. We’ve developed new business opportunities and helped our clients reduce costs and work more efficiently.
As we prepare for new initiatives in the healthcare industry—including ICD-10 /5010, fraud investigation, and electronic health records-- we continue to push forward to help our clients succeed. Together, we can face today’s challenges with great optimism.
Sincerely,
Day Veerlapati
The Corporate Team:
Worth Green
Senior Vice President
Background and Family
Born in 1947, Worth grew up on U.S. Marine bases in the southeastern United States. He attended Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama, where he received a Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Engineering and worked as a cooperative education student with the Ford Motor Company’s Hapeville Assembly Plant in Atlanta, Georgia. After college, Worth joined the U.S Air Force and was stationed in Texas and Brindisi, Italy.
His data processing experience began in 1974 when he accepted a position as a programmer with West Point Pepperrell in Lanett, Alabama. After three years, Worth joined Consultec, headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, as a programmer analyst. He subsequently spent more than 29 years with Consultec (which was acquired by Affiliated Computer Services in 1999) in roles of increasing responsibility from programming to project management to Senior Vice President of ACS’ State Healthcare division.
Today, Worth lives in Canton, Georgia, with his wife, Pamela, who retired in 2009 after teaching school for more than 29 years. Pam holds a Masters Degree and a Six Year Degree in Elementary Education with a Gifted Endorsement, and has been named in the Who’s Who of American Teachers in three different years in her teaching career.

Worth’s Comments on S2Tech
I am very excited about the growth opportunities for S2Tech as we start the second decade of the 21st century; not only in our core competency area, Medicaid, but also in additional public and private vertical markets. I am looking forward to working with everyone in the company to accelerate our growth while ensuring that each client remains delighted with our services.
In my former role as ACS’ Senior Vice President of Fiscal Agent Operations, S2Tech provided services to many of the Medicaid operational accounts for which I was responsible. In every account supported by the company, S2Tech’s President, Day Veerlapati, ensured that the company’s project teams continually went above and beyond their contractual requirements in providing quality staff and excellent levels of service. I have known Day since the early 2000’s and admire his quiet leadership qualities and honest, straightforward business manner. I can think of no organization with which I would rather be associated.

Mike Spangler
Vice President, Products and Services
We consistently hear from our customers that they are looking for a partner who can take on a defined scope of work and manage it to a successful completion. We’re listening! With the addition of Mike to the S2Tech executive team in August 2010, we now have an experienced senior project executive who can lead S2Tech in providing complete project management and implementation services.
Mike’s professional experience began in 1989 with Systemhouse Inc where he spent 4 years as a programmer, primarily in the development of Title IV-A eligibility determination solutions. In 1993 he moved to Consultec to parlay his eligibility system experience into a project lead and eventually a project management role on another IV-A project. Mike moved over to Consultec’s MMIS line of business in 1997. As Consultec became part of ACS, which in turn became part of Xerox, Mike took on roles of increasing responsibility, culminating in a program management role for the implementation of multiple concurrent MMIS implementations.
Mike is passionate about growth. He has implemented mentoring programs to develop the potential leaders within (and around) his organization and he has seen many of his team grow to levels beyond what they otherwise may have been able to achieve. He also recognizes that the capacity of an organization is a direct reflection of the capacity of its leader and thus the need to continually sharpen his own saw. Mike notes, “Change is inherent to the healthcare IT industry. If your organization doesn’t continually grow, the industry will pass you by.”
Mike hales from Minnesota where he has lived for more than 10 years with his wife, Bev, and his two children. His faith is a cornerstone of who he is and he enjoys serving wherever he can. His family loves to camp, bike, fish, hunt and do pretty much anything else that involves being outdoors.
