GSD Services

At Global Solutions and Data Services (GSD), LLC, we specialize in helping local governments get more out of their Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (EP&L) software—especially those feeling overlooked or overwhelmed. Many of our clients are small to mid-sized cities where departments like Planning, Permitting, and Building are stuck using inefficient workarounds, confused by overly complex software, or frustrated with long vendor support wait times. We understand these challenges—because we’ve been on the other side. Our team includes former EP&L vendor employees who’ve led dozens of municipal implementations. That firsthand knowledge allows us to offer practical, tailored solutions for your city’s unique needs—something rare in the industry. Whether you’re an IT Director, City Manager, or Building Official, we work directly with your team to resolve persistent issues, streamline workflows, and support your staff through upgrades, testing, training, and reporting. And while the support you’ve received in the past might have come at a high cost (with little follow-through), our services are designed to be affordable, flexible, and built specifically for small government teams. At GSD, we don’t just offer consulting—we offer clarity. If your city is struggling with EP&L, and you don’t know where to start, we help you make progress without the runaround.
