GIS & Spatial Analytics Services for Business Operations

Some organizations already have GIS software — but it’s underused, limited, or disconnected from other data.

Other organizations know location data matters, but don’t yet have the tools or infrastructure in place to use it effectively.

In both cases, the challenge is the same: How do you turn location-based data into something your team can actually use to make decisions?

At SCS, we help organizations implement, integrate, and scale GIS and spatial analytics as part of a broader data strategy.

Thanks to SCS, we have a dynamic data migration tool for our ERP to help us migrate from Oracle to SQL Server. Our data migration challenge is significant with more than 10,000 tables, ~2TB data volumes and data definition changes. The tool SCS developed to automatically create SSIS packages to migrate individual tables and the control program they created to allow us to control the number of parallel executions have both proven to work out great. We are one step closer to a successful ERP upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is data unification? What is modernization?

Data unification is the process of combining data from multiple systems into a single, consistent, and accessible source.

We use “modernization” as umbrella term to describe any combination of the following:

Improving data governance automation (either within existing tools or via an external tool after data is exported)
Implementing a new software within your organization to replace a legacy software
Keeping existing legacy software, but improving output with modern data tools

We work with your organization to develop the appropriate data unification & modernization strategy.

How is data unification different from data integration?

Data integration connects systems, but data unification ensures the data is consistent, structured, and reliable across those systems. Our data unification & modernization services include both.

Do we need to replace our current systems?

Not necessarily. We work with your existing systems and connects them into a unified data environment without requiring full replacement.

However, in some cases you may discover that an alternative program may be a better option (or perhaps you’ve already purchased a new tool that needs to be integrated into your tech stack). We assist with setting up and integrating new systems, as well.

Will this improve our reporting accuracy?

Yes. By standardizing and centralizing your data, reports become consistent and reliable across teams.

Is this necessary before implementing AI or advanced analytics?

Yes. Clean, unified data is essential for accurate analytics, machine learning, and AI applications.
