Consultations
For industry, public administration, network operators and local government GIS Consult is the solution partner for geoinformation systems and georeferenced data. Working with different dimensions of geodata is our daily business. For over 25 years, we have grown an expelled competence in the field of geodata warehouse, ALKIS, homogenization, road data and management systems, web systems, interfaces and SOA-architecture. Together with our customers we determine the problems. Based on our experiences and thanks to coaching in the form of interviews, we offer our customers different tailor-made and successful solutions. To support the decision making, we create proof of concepts. Furthermore, the mentoring of award decisions via consulting, development of performance specifications and professional support of bidders’ meetings are also parts of our portfolio. Our wealth of experience is high enough for professional support and the allocation of Europe-wide tenders worth 25 million euro, too.
