ABOUT GEOWORX
Specialist ArcGIS Enterprise
expertise, built around
people and place
Geoworx is an independent specialist consultancy founded by Scott Tansley, focused on ArcGIS Enterprise architecture, implementation, lifecycle support and long-term client relationships.
The practice combines geography, GIS, enterprise technology and practical communication - helping organisations get the most from their GIS in real-world environments.
HOW GEOWORX CAME TO BE
From a passion for places
to a specialist practice.
Scott's early years were spent walking the National Parks of the UK, beginning a lifelong interest in maps and place. An interest in geography led to formal study and a career in GIS - first as an analyst, then as a developer and consultant.
After moving to New Zealand in 2011, Scott became involved in supporting the Canterbury earthquake recovery. His career broadened into specialist areas including IT infrastructure, architecture and security.
Working across central government, Scott increasingly specialised in ArcGIS Enterprise. That experience ultimately led to the New Zealand launch of Geoworx in 2019 - a consultancy built on technical expertise, practical experience and a genuine interest in helping organisations succeed with their GIS.
WHAT CLIENTS CAN EXPECT
Practical expertise.
A better outcome.
A specialist model, without dependency
Geoworx is intentionally a small specialist practice. Clients work directly with Scott, so there are fewer handovers, a deep understanding of the environment and direct access to the person doing the work.
That model also comes with a responsibility: your environment should never depend on Geoworx alone. Work is documented clearly, established ArcGIS Enterprise practices are followed, and solutions are designed to remain understandable, supportable and recoverable by others.
Geoworx does not rely on bespoke code, hidden knowledge or unnecessary technical complexity to create dependency. Other specialists can step in when required, and Geoworx is more than happy to discuss how they have done so successfully.
Geoworx may recommend software that complements or supports ArcGIS Enterprise but does not resell software or receive commissions from purchasing decisions.
The aim is simple: specialist expertise while Geoworx is involved, and a well-understood environment that remains supportable when Geoworx is not.
