Our Methodology

Our preference is to work in a collaborative and trusting atmosphere with our customers because we believe that this provides the right atmosphere in which to properly understand and deliver solutions. Therefore, we select an appropriate project management methodology in consultation with you to ensure a common and integrated delivery framework.

In general, we break down the GIS project life cycle into five phases, around which we have structured our services:

• Strategy and Planning
• Analysis and Design
• Development
• Deployment
• Operations and Maintenance

How We Work

We organize and manage total project solutions, drawing on our own experience or partnering with other organizations as needed. We also work in support of other organizations by providing special expertise in ESRI software and methodologies.

We offer services to help you with the entire GIS project life cycle or just those phases in which you need help. Extended support is available for clients with specific implementation support requirements.

We view your GIS project as a partnership between you and ESRI. Collaboration and open communication are key to the successful delivery of your solution, and we will provide regular, ongoing progress reports to your team in an agreed-upon manner.
