Geospatial & GIS
Your Facilities Data, On A Map That Decides Something
Most public agencies already own a GIS. What they often don’t have is a connection between it and the decisions being made about buildings and capital — so the map stays a reference layer instead of becoming an input.
What The Engagement Covers
- GIS strategic plan
- Current-state assessment, data inventory, governance, staffing, system architecture, and a multi-year roadmap.
- Spatial analysis for siting and sequencing
- Where facilities are relative to the demand they serve, and what that implies for consolidation, expansion, or disposal.
- Condition and capital data on a map
- The FCI and the backlog rendered spatially — how a council reads a portfolio faster than a table lets them.
- Data integration
- Connecting the facilities record to the parcel, asset, and permitting layers already maintained.
Why This Sits Alongside The Other Five
Geospatial work here isn’t a separate practice. It’s the layer that makes the other engagements legible: a deferred maintenance backlog mapped against service areas answers a question a spreadsheet can’t, and a master plan’s existing-conditions chapter is half a mapping exercise.
Engaged on its own, it’s usually a strategy and governance question — what data exists, who maintains it, what it’s for, and what the next three years of investment should buy.
What You Get
- GIS strategic plan
- Current state, gaps, governance model, roadmap, and cost.
- Spatial analysis
- The specific siting, sequencing, or consolidation question, answered.
- Integrated layers
- Facilities condition and capital data joined to your existing GIS.
Where This Comes Up
GIS strategic plans are procured on their own — a multi-year roadmap for an agency that has accumulated data faster than governance. More often the spatial work is a component of a master plan or a condition assessment, which is where it does the most good.
