> Teams in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Ohio are using crappy relational database to do this almost manually - taking weeks to do what quantum does in one click.

Huh ?

This a bold claim that doesn't make much sense to me.

Do they have access to the schemas for each State's databases ?

More often than not, a poorly designed schema is the cause of problems with relational databases.

Government IT systems are encumbered with financial, legal, and institutional constraints which make their operation inefficient and difficult to use.

A new "tech stack" won't fix this, each State has layers and layers of red-tape to navigate, much of it created to favor donors like "Big Tech".

Yup. A whole lot of the databases from the FFIEC, to take an example, are not even relational. They are fixed length, flat-file tables, sometimes with thousands of fields. You can combine these with other flat file tables to make a relational database and do some useful work, but limitations remain.
