Geonexus Technologies was recently awarded a contract, after a competitive bid process, from Anchorage Water and Wastewater Utility to provide and configure a replacement for their ArcGIS-Maximo Interface Application.

While we consider 2020, we are prepping to help our clients with a wide variety of enterprise data challenges including Utility Network planning, mobility requirements, enterprise asset management system changes.

Many utilities have started planning for their move from Esri’s Geometric Network to the Utility Network. No matter what stage you are at in preparing for the big move, you can implement GeoWorx Sync now to help ease your Utility Network migration.

This month we celebrate 10 years of GeoNexus Technologies! Over the last ten years, the company has changed a lot. We’ve grown from one person working out of their basement to a team consisting of 18 people (and growing), 2 international resellers, and over 50 customers leveraging the GeoWorx platform!

Last Fall, as Peoples’ mobile workforce grew to over 650 users, it became clear that their Esri deployment needed to be redesigned. They had performance issues using one geodatabase, as field users were competing against editors and web users for resources, including replica syncing throughout the day.

Overall, more and more people want to include and integrate additional data within their GIS. At Geonexus, we enable GIS to go beyond the Edge by providing a platform for integration. This GIS integration platform includes productized connectors for Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Enterprise Asset Management Systems (EAM), Customer Information Systems (CIS), and endless opportunities to build additional connectors to meet the integration needs of any enterprise.

At asset intensive organizations, data is shared across multiple utility business systems. These systems include: Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Enterprise Asset Management (EAM), Customer Information Systems (CIS), Outage Management Systems (OMS), and Distribution Management Systems (DMS). For each system, the data must reside in the application’s native database to support its functionality.

One of the keys to successful enterprise integrations is transparency. The reason for this is because users want to know what is happening to their enterprise data as it moves between multiple systems to ensure its integrity. With many solutions, this transparency is lacking or non-existent.

With any integration, one of the most frustrating things is often the cost and burden of upkeep. In fact, many enterprise system integration solutions force you to continuously rebuild or reconfigure with even minor upgrades of edge systems. With a loosely coupled solution, you can significantly reduce burdens and, in most cases, eliminate them altogether.
