Connect your data. Unlock spatial intelligence.
Organisations rely on data from multiple systems, platforms and sources to make critical decisions. But when information is fragmented, difficult to access or disconnected from operational processes, its value is limited.
Make data work harder.
Eightysevenpins helps organisations design, build and connect spatial and data platforms that bring information together, improve accessibility and support better decision-making.
We combine spatial technology, data engineering and systems integration to create solutions that connect information across organisational boundaries and turn complex data environments into practical business capabilities.
From establishing a spatial platform to engineering reliable data pipelines and integrating enterprise systems, our focus is on making data work harder for your organisation.
Connected platforms. Trusted data. Better decisions.
Four connected capabilities.
Spatial Platforms
Make location intelligence part of how your organisation works.Spatial platforms provide the foundation for managing geographic information, understanding relationships between locations and assets and delivering location-based insights across an organisation.
We help organisations assess, design and implement spatial platforms that align with business requirements, data environments and operational needs. Our approach considers the entire spatial ecosystem — from data management and integration to analysis, visualisation, governance and user access.
Our capabilities include:
- GIS platform strategy and architecture
- Spatial platform design and implementation
- Geospatial data management and publishing
- Spatial analytics and mapping capabilities
- Integration with enterprise applications
- Spatial data governance and access controls
- Platform optimisation and modernisation
- Cloud-based spatial architecture, where appropriate
Outcome: a spatial capability that makes geographic information more accessible, consistent and useful across the organisation.
Custom Data Platforms
Build a data foundation around your business.Every organisation has different information requirements, operating models and decision-making needs. Standard platforms can provide a foundation, but additional capabilities may be required to bring data together and make it useful in the context of specific business challenges.
We help organisations design and develop fit-for-purpose data platforms that connect information sources, support analytical workloads and provide a foundation for reporting, spatial intelligence and decision support — meeting current requirements while remaining adaptable as data volumes, business needs and technology evolve.
Our capabilities include:
- Data platform strategy and architecture
- Requirements analysis and platform design
- Data modelling and structured information management
- Data storage and processing architecture
- Spatial and non-spatial data integration
- Analytics and reporting foundations
- Data quality and governance frameworks
- Platform scalability, security and maintainability
Outcome: a fit-for-purpose data environment that supports reliable information access, analysis and future capability development.
Data Pipelines
Move data reliably from source to insight.Data is only useful when it reaches the right destination in the right format, at the right time and with appropriate quality controls.
Data pipelines enable organisations to collect, transform, validate and deliver information across systems and platforms. Well-designed pipelines reduce manual handling, improve consistency and establish repeatable processes. We help organisations design and implement pipelines that reflect their operational requirements, data characteristics and processing needs.
Our capabilities include:
- Data ingestion from multiple sources
- ETL and ELT processes
- Batch and scheduled data processing
- API-based data exchange
- Data transformation and standardisation
- Spatial data processing and transformation
- Validation, reconciliation and quality checks
- Pipeline monitoring, error handling and operational support
Outcome: more consistent, traceable and dependable data flows that reduce manual effort and support timely decision-making.
Data Integration
Connect systems. Create a more complete picture.Organisations often operate across a combination of enterprise applications, operational systems, specialist platforms and external data sources. When these environments remain disconnected, teams can struggle to access consistent information and gain a complete view of business operations.
We help organisations connect systems and information through considered integration design, data mapping and practical implementation — understanding how information needs to move, which systems are authoritative and how integrations can remain reliable, secure and maintainable over time.
Our capabilities include:
- Systems integration strategy and architecture
- API design and integration
- Spatial and enterprise system integration
- Data mapping and transformation
- Integration between operational and analytical platforms
- Real-time and event-driven integration, where appropriate
- Data synchronisation and reconciliation
- Integration testing, monitoring and support
Outcome: better-connected systems, reduced information silos and more consistent data across business processes.
A connected ecosystem.
Spatial platforms, data platforms, pipelines and integrations deliver their greatest value when they are designed as parts of a connected ecosystem.
A spatial platform can provide location-based context. A data platform can bring together information from multiple domains. Data pipelines can make that information available through repeatable processes, while integrations connect the resulting capabilities to the systems people already use.
Eightysevenpins considers these components together to help organisations establish an architecture that supports both immediate needs and longer-term objectives.
From fragmented information to connected capability.
Understand your existing systems, data sources, business requirements and the decisions your organisation needs to support.
Assess the current environment, identify gaps and dependencies, evaluate options and establish the appropriate architecture.
Define a practical solution that balances business value, technical requirements, security, maintainability and cost.
Support solution design, implementation, integration, testing and transition into operational use, as agreed for each engagement.
Technology-aware, not technology-led.
We recognise that every organisation has its own technology landscape, governance requirements and operational constraints.
Our approach is technology-aware but not technology-led. We consider existing investments, interoperability, data ownership, security, performance and the capability required to operate and maintain the solution.
Whether you are establishing a new spatial platform, modernising a data environment or connecting systems that have evolved independently, we focus on solutions that are fit for purpose and grounded in your business needs.
A clearer path from data to decision.
If your organisation is working with fragmented data, disconnected systems or spatial capabilities that are difficult to scale, Eightysevenpins can help you identify the right approach.
