Value gained and engagement with a GIS can blur across the departments, divisions, and agencies, often resulting in silos of institutional knowledge, duplication, misalignment, and ineffective use. These underlying symptoms of outdated documents, metadata, undocumented use cases, comments in source code, third party products, customizations, etc. can result in increased dependency on technology vendors, limited GIS maturity, and expensive GIS upgrades with inefficiencies and delays. A comprehensive and efficient process to analyze use case impacts and dependencies is essential for an organization to benefit from, and implement, advancements that can accelerate the value of GIS and the return on investment from new technology. Avineon’s Model Manager creates a streamlined process for organizations to understand the impact of GIS by establishing consensus on the current, transition, and future states among all stakeholders, leading to effective collaboration and governance as GIS matures throughout your enterprise. ** ##### Quantify the Value of GIS Implement Use Case Dashboards to communicate the value provided by GIS and clarify ownerships, support, road map between your GIS, IT, ICT, and end-user communities for maps, apps, scripts, integrations, reports, dashboards, etc. ** ##### Visualize Dependencies Implement Dependencies Dashboards to visualize the use of layers, subtypes, and fields across your GIS use cases, such as maps, apps, scripts, integrations, reports, dashboards, etc. ** ##### Recognize Data Sources Implement Data Sources Dashboards to visualize internal and external data sources, such as geodatabases, web services, feature services, etc., used with maps from internal and external sources for every use case. ** ##### Map Business Functions Implement Business Function Dashboards to communicate the business processes supported by GIS in the current state and envisioned for the transition and future states. ** ##### Track Data Model Evolution Implement Data Model Adaptations Dashboards to centralize the inventory of all data model changes across your organization’s projects and maintain a clear understanding of GIS across your enterprise. ## Our Model Manager Solution main items ** Develop a Concept of Use ** Baseline Your Current Model ** Blueprint Your Future ** Modernize for the Future ** Model Map through Transitions ** Develop a Concept of Use Review current processes used for GIS development, testing, and deployment and recommend the optimal use of Model Manager that is consistent with your organization’s GIS and IT processes. ** Baseline Your Current Model Facilitate the installation of Model Manager and audit the current GIS state by initializing dashboards across use cases, dependencies, data sources, business functions, and data models. ** Blueprint Your Future Analysis of the transition and future states of an organization’s GIS by comparing as-is data models to future data models with an impact analysis on current GIS uses across the enterprise. ** Modernize for the Future Plan the modernization strategy of current state use cases (maps, apps, customizations, dashboards, reports, etc.) by leveraging improvements and new capabilities in the ArcGIS platform to deliver greater levels of automation and value to your business. ** Model Map through Transitions Map current state data models with the transition and future state data models, such as foundational models (local government, UPDM, Utility Network, parcel fabric, etc.) and best practices developed by Avineon, partner vendors, and associations within relevant domains. ** Develop a Concept of Use ** Baseline Your Current Model ** Blueprint Your Future ** Modernize for the Future ** Model Map through Transitions ** Develop a Concept of Use Review current processes used for GIS development, testing, and deployment and recommend the optimal use of Model Manager that is consistent with your organization’s GIS and IT processes. ** Baseline Your Current Model Facilitate the installation of Model Manager and audit the current GIS state by initializing dashboards across use cases, dependencies, data sources, business functions, and data models. ** Blueprint Your Future Analysis of the transition and future states of an organization’s GIS by comparing as-is data models to future data models with an impact analysis on current GIS uses across the enterprise. ** Modernize for the Future Plan the modernization strategy of current state use cases (maps, apps, customizations, dashboards, reports, etc.) by leveraging improvements and new capabilities in the ArcGIS platform to deliver greater levels of automation and value to your business. ** Model Map through Transitions Map current state data models with the transition and future state data models, such as foundational models (local government, UPDM, Utility Network, parcel fabric, etc.) and best practices developed by Avineon, partner vendors, and associations within relevant domains. ## Case Study ### Implementing Information Model Dashboards   Our ArcGIS project at Traverse City Light and Power showcases how the implementation of information model dashboards has resulted in a sustainable approach to share and collaborate on the role played by GIS. [Read Case Study](https://www.avineon.com/en-us/downloads/maximize-value-leveraging-information-model-dashboards?hsLang=en-us) ![News and Events](https://www.avineon.com/hubfs/Website%20only%20-%20Header%20images/News%20and%20Events.jpg) ## Why Model Manager An organization’s ability to analyze the impact and accelerate the adoption of GIS innovations is essential across an enterprise. The variations in the use of technologies such as ArcGIS Enterprise and ArcGIS Online across departments, divisions, and agencies can further complicate system architectures, leading to a decentralized and undocumented approach that creates risks and supportability issues. Created by Avineon to accelerate the value of GIS across any domain, Model Manager results in an organization-wide understanding, allowing you to efficiently adopt new GIS technology across the enterprise. This provides adopters of Model Manager the ability to establish and maintain the authoritative use of GIS use cases and associated dependencies while providing a centralized approach to maintain institutional knowledge across administration and end-user communities. Continuous use of Model Manager can provide a streamlined process to plan the future evolution of your underlying data model, data, applications, services, and integration strategies as GIS matures throughout your organization. ** ##### Engage User Communities Model Manager can accelerate end-user group buy-in across departments, divisions, and agencies by quantifying the value provided by GIS and integrating data flows that can be easily visualized. ** ##### Clarify Ownership Model Manager can improve the clarity of ownership for ongoing support, upgrade, and testing with various maps, apps, reports, and dashboards deployed using ArcGIS. ** ##### Continuous Improvement Model Manager can help organizations have clarity in the changes between current, transition, and future states to foster a continuous improvement mindset. ** ##### Robust Estimates Through documented implementation details, Model Manager can provide the insights needed to estimate the effort associated with upgrades. ** ##### Speed to Deploy Upgrades Model Manager gives organizations the ability to visually analyze the impact of adopting new GIS innovations ahead of time and with detailed planning of upgrade and testing tasks, resulting in faster upgrade timelines and higher return on investment. ## Delivery Models At Avineon, we have the delivery model tailored to your needs:   **> Guided Implementation:** Avineon facilitates a series of training classes and workshops along a three month timeline to a large number of users including GIS, IT, ICT, and end-user communities. All attendees walk away from these sessions with action items that need to be completed prior to the next class or workshop. This is the preferred approach as it provides an opportunity for everyone to engage and tailors the use of Model Manger into the organization’s practices.   **> Self-Service Implementation:** Avineon delivers a one-day training class, on-site or online, with the installation and use of the Model Manager to select users from your GIS, IT, and ICT teams. The trained users will be responsible for the implementation and use of Model Manager across your organization. **> Annual Subscription and Support:** Regardless of the implementation model, the Model Manager Add-in for ArcGIS Pro is available for organizational subscription at [ArcGIS Marketplace](https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis-marketplace/listing/products/77d4cc01d9344324a25dc34e1b40ab8a).
