Business Objectives

Governments need to make the "right" decisions with limited resources in order to meet the needs of government and citizens. This creates the demand for solutions that can harness and unite information in new ways to provide clear perspectives into critical operations.  Mountains of complex data, interrelated processes and multiple isolated systems combined with an increasing demand for information are driving waves of change worldwide.  Rolta's Geospatial Fusion solutions enable effective and efficient organizations; organizations who uses the power of Geospatial Fusion as a differentiator and a source of spatial intelligence.

Solution

Rolta Geospatial Fusion Solutions connect systems, processes, and people in real time, eliminating the need to translate and move information.  These solutions include industry leading spatial analytics, database connectivity, business intelligence dashboards and other powerful tools needed to build applications that provide a clear picture of the financial, service restoration, maintenance, safety and other key performance areas.

Rolta's solution provides:

• Improved service for citizens
• Improved problem resolution time
• Integration of operational data across systems and agencies to facilitate service center information visibility
• Use of spatial business intelligence to provide a performance dashboard for agency executives and service center managers
• Use of spatially enabled portals for two way communications between citizens and their government
• Reduced cost attributed to consolidation of call centers and agency information

Approach

Rolta's Services allow you to assess current operations and plan an effective strategy to harness the power of geography for bringing new investment into your area, making the case for infrastructure improvements, incentives, support, jobs and investment.

Business Value

There is no question about Government's motives to improve information availability and communications.  But achieving these objectives while improving the efficiency of Government can be a real challenge.  This is where Rolta's solutions can help.  We have an integration platform that avoids costly custom programming.  This keeps down implementation costs while providing enhanced visibility into the critical information required for efficient and effective Government.

Rolta Geospatial Fusion Solutions offer the ideal platform to help identify, measure, catalog and report key metrics and performance indictors throughout an organization. 

Technical View

Technical Issues

Perhaps you are facing the following technical challenges that are common across governements:

• Multiple IT platforms and disparate systems within an organization
• Manual processes and/or spreadsheets required to look for patterns and analyze problems
• Operational data not readily assessable throughout the organization
• Inability to see critical information in a spatial context
• Inability to aggregate business and engineering information without significant manual work or duplication of data
• Trend analysis that is an adjunct and difficult task because of lack of data accessibility and lack of analytical tools

Solution Components

Rolta Geospatial Fusion Solutions fuses all core competencies, products and processes of an enterprise into a seamless architecture and world class offering. This extends the value of traditional business systems, GIS platforms and investments in engineering data maintenance by enabling an enterprise to have cost-effective integration of systems and create spatial business/operations intelligence capability.  This improves performance by bringing together information that was previously hidden and making it available in a context appropriate for any level of decision-making. 

Implementation

Rolta's Operational Intelligence Solutions are quick to deploy. Projects typically begin with needs assessments for the various stakeholders, which serve as the basis for identifying and prioritizing specialized requirements. Needs assessment and work process analysis are important elements to determine how the solution needs to be configured to meet organizational objectives. Business metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs) are also critical to identify early in the specification process so that dashboards can be created to meet the needs of executive and managers throughout the organization. You can be up and running within days with core capabilities and with a solution that is highly configurable rather than relying on a solution which is largely custom code.

Our implementation approach is built around standard software development methodologies that are focused on providing tangible results quickly and limiting the need for rework. Our implementation methodology includes:

• Assessment, Strategy and Planning
• Requirements
• Configuration/Construction
• Deployment and Transition to Production

How Does it Fit and Why is it Different?

Instead of focusing on one target system, Rolta's Geospatial Fusion Solutions are designed to "plug and play" with any GIS and business system. The traditional approach has been to translate or migrate the data from the target system into a new application or database. Rolta's Geospatial Fusion Solution can bring information together from various systems, without the need for transformation. Rolta's Operational Intelligence Solution provides:

• Geospatial analysis and visualization of trends, exceptions and alerts
• Decision-making across business functions and processes
• Real time monitoring of projects and operational processes
• Immediate visibility into key performance indicators (KPIs)
• Monitor or performance against organizational objectives
• Establish cause-and-effect relationships between or across business processes
