GSI's products are primarily marketed and utilized across the United States, particularly in regions experiencing increased broadband deployments and utility attachment requests, thereby enhancing distribution system resilience. GSI's revenue is generated through business-to-business transactions with utility companies, which utilize the DDS platform under various subscription models and service agreements.
Clients typically enter into contracts that may include service tiers based on the specific needs and scale of their operations, encompassing features such as advanced compliance tools, project management capabilities, and ongoing technical support. The transaction structure primarily revolves around annual subscriptions or one-time licensing fees for the DDS software, fostering long-term partnerships with utility providers. The company’s revenue model focuses on delivering value through enhanced design efficiency and reduced operational costs, allowing clients to achieve significant productivity gains while maintaining rigorous compliance with industry standards. Following the acquisition on January 2, 2026, by Spatial Business Systems, Inc.
