Move teams off license-heavy stacks. Without a re-train year.
A productised path off proprietary GIS platforms and onto open, standards-based alternatives.
The buyer’s problem.
Mid-market firms can no longer justify the per-seat cost of legacy GIS platforms. Renewals are getting harder to defend at every budget cycle. But ripping the old stack out is daunting — workflows live in custom toolboxes, data lives in proprietary formats, and the analyst team learned its craft in one ecosystem. Most teams stay locked in by inertia, not by value.
The work, concretely.
- 01
Inventory of every license seat, custom workflow, model and data format currently in use.
- 02
A pilot migration of one workflow end-to-end — proves the new stack runs, your analysts stay productive, and the data round-trips cleanly.
- 03
A standards-based stack: PostGIS for storage, GeoServer / pg_tileserv for serving, MapLibre / OpenLayers for clients, QGIS for desktop work.
- 04
Re-pointed automations, scheduled reports and integrations — your downstream consumers don't notice.
- 05
Documented change-management plan and an analyst playbook so the team can self-serve afterwards.
Three steps. Each one priced before it starts.
Step 1
Discovery
$8K — 3 weeks
License audit, workflow inventory, target-state architecture, fixed-price plan for the full migration.
Step 2
Pilot
$30K — 6 weeks
One workflow migrated end-to-end on the new stack. Side-by-side validation. Go/no-go decision with full data.
Step 3
Full migration
Scoped from Pilot
Phased migration of remaining workflows, data, integrations and team. Old licenses retired on a known date.
Buyers who came in for legacy gis modernization usually need these too.
Strategic engagement
Custom web & mobile GIS
Web and mobile GIS applications, dashboards and APIs for teams that need exactly what they need.
