State & Local Government

Transform processes with modernized GIS

Public sector agencies move faster when they have modern GIS tools, connected systems, and streamlined workflows.

Quartic helps cities, counties, and regional agencies modernize mapping technology, bring data together, and reduce manual processes. The result is more time focused on serving communities and less time managing outdated systems.

Solving GIS Challenges for the Public Sector

State and local government agencies are tasked with delivering efficient and reliable services to the communities they serve.

Below are the most common GIS obstacles we see across government, and how partnering with Quartic can create meaningful, measurable improvement.

Problem: Aging Software & Tools

When GIS platforms are outdated or poorly configured, staff spend more time troubleshooting than delivering results. Analysis slows, performance issues pile up, and new initiatives are harder to support. Over time, this increases costs, technical debt, and frustration across teams.

OUR SOLUTION

Our Solution: Advance Your GIS

  • Modernize and fine-tune your GIS environment and tools
  • Gain performance, scalability, and long-term reliability
  • Receive practical configuration for tools that support daily workflows and reduce friction for staff
  • Give leadership confidence in your GIS platform as a long-term investment

Problem: Outdated or inaccurate spatial data

When maps and datasets aren’t kept current, decisions are made with incomplete or incorrect information. This can lead to misallocated resources, delayed responses, and data that doesn’t reflect reality on the ground—undermining trust in both the data and the agency.

OUR SOLUTION

Our Solution: Level Up Your Data

  • Ensure asset data is accurate, complete, and reliable
  • Establish governance practices that keep data consistent over time
  • Create sustainable workflows for maintaining and updating data
  • Support planning, operations, and reporting with GIS data you can trust

Problem: Disorganized or Siloed GIS Systems

As GIS systems grow independently across departments, data becomes harder to find, share, and maintain. Teams duplicate effort, integrations break down, and leadership lacks a unified operational picture. These silos slow collaboration and make enterprise initiatives harder to execute.

OUR SOLUTION

Our Solution: Modernize GIS Architecture & Align Systems

  • Make data and workflows easier to share across teams
  • Integrate GIS with core business systems like Cityworks, SAP, CAD, AVL, and Salesforce
  • Build a unified, enterprise GIS foundation
  • Enable better decisions with connected systems

Problem: Limited Internal GIS Expertise

When GIS teams are stretched thin, important projects get delayed. Staff is focused on keeping systems running instead of improving them. Complex projects bring added challenges, and limited experience can slow progress.

OUR SOLUTION

Our Solution: Access Experienced GIS Professionals

  • Expand your team without long-term overhead
  • Accelerate high-priority GIS projects
  • Reduce risk on complex initiatives
  • Free up internal teams to focus on what matters most

The support I received from Quartic was very positive. The Quartic team member was supportive, knowledgeable, and efficient throughout the update of our Esri ArcGIS enterprise environment to version 11.5.
