3-GIS | Productivity
Operationalize the Utility Network
3-GIS | Productivity gives electric and gas utility GIS teams a governed environment for editing, validation, automation, tracing, versioning, commissioning, and map production in ArcGIS Pro and the Esri Utility Network. Purpose-built for Utility Network operations, Productivity reduces manual administration, standardizes complex workflows, and protects the quality of authoritative network data.
Productivity at a glance
3-GIS | Productivity is a Utility Network operations platform for electric and gas utility GIS teams. It brings editing tools, workflow management, version control, automation services, validation, traceability, subnetwork management, and map production into a governed ArcGIS Pro experience built for scalable, auditable network change.
Utility GIS automation
Move beyond manual administration
Utility Network work is complex, high-volume, and difficult to scale through manual effort alone. 3-GIS | Productivity turns editing, validation, version management, posting, cleanup, commissioning, and map production into repeatable workflows and automated services, giving GIS teams greater control over network change.
Workflow control
Where Productivity takes control
3-GIS | Productivity manages the high-effort Utility Network workflows GIS teams run every day, from editing and validation to version control, tracing, and map production.
Accelerate edits
Give GIS editors a focused ArcGIS Pro workspace for common Utility Network editing tasks, reducing repetitive steps and improving consistency across users.
Enforce data quality
Detect, analyze, and resolve Utility Network errors through guided validation workflows that keep data quality built into daily editing.
Eliminate manual processes
Run posting, cleanup, validation, change detection, commissioning, exports, and map production as coordinated services instead of manual tasks.
Track every change
Maintain a defensible record of network edits with visibility into what changed, where, when, and by whom before changes reach Default.
Key features
Tools for Utility Network teams
Productivity gives utility GIS teams the control required to manage Utility Network change at scale. Each capability is designed to reduce manual administration, enforce consistency, improve auditability, and keep authoritative network data ready for downstream operations.
Error analysis
Translate errors into clear descriptions, connect issues to affected features, and apply approved resolutions through guided or automated workflows.
Version management
Coordinate branch versions, posting queues, version cleanup, and assignment-based editing so GIS teams spend less time managing geodatabase administration.
Subnetwork management
Manage subnetwork creation, validation, updates, exports, and underground infrastructure relationships through governed Utility Network workflows.
Connected utility solutions
Extend Utility Network value
Utility Network data becomes more valuable when teams can use it beyond editing and maintenance. 3-GIS | Productivity strengthens core GIS workflows in ArcGIS Pro, while related 3-GIS utilities solutions support the field activity, work management, and asset lifecycle processes that rely on accurate network data.
3-GIS | MIMS
Bring field activity back into the GIS workflows Productivity governs, giving crews a mobile environment for inspections, redlining, tracing, assignments, and asset updates that return to enterprise records.
3-GIS | Lifecycle
Turn inspection findings, defects, and maintenance needs into planned work with tools that connect asset condition, scheduling, execution, and closeout.
3-GIS | SPANS
Keep joint use and attachment records connected to utility workflows with tools built for clearer tracking, cleaner data, and stronger pole asset coordination.
3-GIS | Productivity FAQs
-
Who uses 3-GIS | Productivity?
3-GIS | Productivity is built for electric and gas utility GIS teams working in ArcGIS Pro and the Esri Utility Network. It is used by GIS editors, administrators, managers, and leaders responsible for network editing, data quality, version control, workflow execution, and Utility Network operations.
-
How does 3-GIS | Productivity improve data quality?
3-GIS | Productivity improves data quality through continuous validation, error analysis, guided resolution workflows, edit traceability, and governed posting processes. GIS teams can identify issues earlier, review changes before promotion to Default, and reduce the risk of incomplete or inaccurate network data reaching downstream systems.
-
How does 3-GIS | Productivity automate Utility Network work?
3-GIS | Productivity uses the Productivity Services Engine to run critical GIS processes as scheduled or event-driven services. Teams can automate reconcile and post, topology validation, version cleanup, change detection, subnetwork exports, map production, and commissioning instead of relying on repeated manual administration.
-
What workflows does 3-GIS | Productivity support?
3-GIS | Productivity covers Utility Network editing, workflow management, process automation, subnetwork management, tracing, validation, error detection, enterprise search, conduit and structure management, versioning, reconcile/post, and map production.
-
Does 3-GIS | Productivity require a specific data model?
No. 3-GIS | Productivity is data-model agnostic, allowing utilities to work with the Utility Network data model they have already built rather than adopting a proprietary schema or rearchitecting their existing model.
