Case Study: Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council achieves faster, more automated GIS and document management with 1Spatial and FME

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council saves at least £50,000 with 1Spatial

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council, an established user of geospatial information, faced challenges with its GIS data existing in separate siloes and relying on manual, laborious processes. The council worked with vendor 1Spatial, utilizing its training and consultancy services alongside the FME product, to address these inefficiencies.

1Spatial helped the council implement a solution using FME to automate over 100 processes, which replaced repetitive manual tasks and improved data sharing between departments. The results were significant, with tasks that once took a day now being completed in half an hour. The solution also enabled a major document migration project, saving an estimated £50,000 and providing staff with a more user-friendly system and greater actionable information.
