GeoIdentity performed a GIS and Asset Management Baseline Assessment for a local government client including a review of business capability needs, GIS architecture and application performance, GIS application development and operational processes, and geospatial analytics. GeoIdentity identified that the client had been able to meet growing GIS-related business requirements with a predominantly build versus buy approach resulting in an enterprise landscape of predominantly disparate and custom applications, fragmented data, and heavy reliance on point-to-point integrations that were not able to scale sustainably.
GeoIdentity partnered with the client to develop a buy versus build strategy and standards-based enterprise architecture that could provide a single source of truth view for their physical assets and one that minimizes heterogeneous systems and emphasizes real-time integration of data that could lead to significant process improvements, agility, lower Total Cost of Ownership, as well as customer experience. GeoIdentity furthered the client’s planning with the development of an ArcGIS Online portal POC that provided configurable dashboards that allowed browser-based access to map services hosted on an ArcGIS server. Work performed within this project was subsequently operationalized and scaled across the organization.
