Private Nearby-Record Discovery
Enterprise apps need users to discover and navigate to proprietary locations and records with rich business attributes, without exposing the private dataset to other projects or rebuilding spatial search.
Use it in Mappls Pro
Access this solution inside Mappls Private Nearby Finder
Manage project-isolated private records and extended attributes, power nearby and text search, and embed maps and multimodal directions in branded apps. Use a one-click demo profile, enter as Digital product manager, Channel operations, Data steward or choose another application-specific role.

The executive question
Can customers discover the nearest relevant proprietary location—with the right attributes and directions—while the enterprise retains full data control?
The Mappls response
Connect real-world, enterprise and operational data to the intelligence and workflow that create the outcome
Project-isolated record APIs to add, update, delete, retrieve, text-search and find nearby private records; configurable extended attributes; secure credentials; and plug-and-play map, directions and multimodal route experiences.
Project-isolated record APIs to add, update, delete, retrieve, text-search and find nearby private records; configurable extended attributes; secure credentials; and plug-and-play map, directions and multimodal route experiences. Start with the proposed proof of value, establish an agreed baseline and success measures, then scale through governed APIs, applications, mobile workflows and operating dashboards.
Value and ROI hypothesis
Make the economics testable
Launch branded discovery faster, keep location masters governed and private, reduce duplicate spatial engineering and improve conversion from search to visit.
Leading indicator
Measure data fit, workflow completion, coverage, adoption and decision speed during the proof.
Economic result
Translate the operating improvement into revenue, cost, risk, service or asset-utilisation impact.
Scale decision
Use agreed success criteria to choose production scope, ownership and commercial model.
Departments and operating ownership

Programme readiness
The decisions and inputs that shape the right implementation
- Which decisions, teams and systems participate in the current process?
- ;Where do location uncertainty, manual hand-offs, exceptions or delays enter the journey?
- ;What data, security, deployment and integration constraints must the operating model respect?
- ;Which baseline measures would establish customer, operational and financial impact?
