You probably need this when…
Critical edits, QA, map production, and reporting depend on individual specialists.
Legacy licensing or infrastructure constrains integration and wider access.
What the engagement delivers
Every item is tied to an acceptance owner and evidence. Final scope is confirmed after data, security, and integration review.
Application, data, integration, license, and workflow inventory
Target operating model and modernization architecture
Migration waves, dependency map, risk register, and cost range
Validated migration with reconciliation and lineage evidence
APIs, web workflows, governance, training, and runbooks
From evidence to operational handover
- 01
Discover the estate
Map systems, users, dependencies, licensing, ownership, and failure points.
- 02
Design the target
Define platform, governance, identity, integration, and support.
- 03
Prove one workflow
Migrate a representative use case and validate integrity and adoption.
- 04
Move in waves
Sequence cutovers with rollback, training, and acceptance.
How value is verified
No vanity accuracy number. Evidence is chosen around the operational decision and agreed before delivery starts.
- ✓Record counts, geometry validity, attribute reconciliation, and lineage reports
- ✓Task-time and failure-rate comparison for the modernized workflow
- ✓Acceptance evidence from GIS specialists and operational users
Frequently asked questions
Must we replace our current GIS vendor?+
No. Modernization can improve architecture around ArcGIS, QGIS, or a mixed environment.
Can you migrate custom tools?+
Yes. Each is classified for retirement, replacement, refactoring, or controlled coexistence.
How do you reduce risk?+
Through inventory, pilots, automated reconciliation, phased cutover, and named acceptance owners.
How do you handle migration from legacy ArcGIS Enterprise or Oracle Spatial?+
We follow a phased coexistence strategy. Critical desktop workflows and web services are audited, decoupled from legacy file geodatabases, and transitioned into governed cloud-native spatial architectures (PostGIS, MapLibre, PMTiles) without disrupting daily municipal or utility operations.
Can we reduce our commercial GIS licensing footprint?+
Yes. By replacing casual viewer seats and repetitive backend geoprocessing scripts with open-standard web mapping applications and automated cloud pipelines, enterprises frequently reduce annual commercial licensing costs by 40% to 70%.
What security compliance standards do your architectures meet?+
Our deployments conform to ISO 27001, SOC 2, and regional sovereign cloud guidelines (such as Saudi PDPL/NDMO and UAE federal cybersecurity standards), supporting enterprise SSO, role-based access control, and row-level spatial security.
How much does an enterprise GIS migration cost?+
Enterprise GIS modernization costs vary by geodatabase size, customization complexity, and concurrent users. An initial technical assessment and migration blueprint starts from $9,000 (3 to 4 weeks). Full phased migration delivery typically ranges between $45,000 and $120,000, which is frequently offset within 12 to 18 months by 40% to 70% savings in proprietary desktop and server licensing fees.
