Hi there, we’re Locus

At Locus, we believe that data is more than just information, it’s the foundation of every decision, every innovation, every future.

For 20 years, we’ve turned complexity into clarity. We help organisations break down data silos, automate workflows, and surface insights that actually move the needle. With deep FME expertise, technical rigor, and a genuine love for problem‑solving, our team brings the right mix of business acumen and spatial-data mastery.

We’re more than an integration partner. We’re your strategic ally. Whether you’re building smarter infrastructure, delivering better services, or scaling operations with confidence, we help you turn data into a competitive advantage.

We also happen to be the New Zealand leader in FME Platform solutions, the all-data, any-AI data integration tool with the best support for spatial data worldwide.

Our Story

Locus was founded by John Arnerich in 2004. A Chartered Accountant by trade, John recognized an opportunity to help New Zealand businesses better manage their data with the help of FME. As Locus grew, including expansion into Australia so did the need for more experienced data and GIS professionals. Today, the Locus team is a diverse mix delivering the perfect intersection between business acumen, technical expertise and a dedicated client services approach(with a good dose of fun on the side!)
