What Enciso Systems does

Enciso Systems, a Villavicencio, Colombia-headquartered software firm (Enciso Systems S.A.S.) founded in 2020 by systems engineer Javier Enciso, builds custom web platforms, data pipelines, APIs, and cloud/DevOps infrastructure with a specialty in mission-critical deployments for scientific and aerospace organizations. Its core stack centers on Python/Django (notably the open-source Djangoplicity CMS for astronomical institutions) and produces systems marketed with 99.99% uptime and sub-50ms latency targets. Named customers include NASA, ESA, NSF NOIRLab, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's US Data Facility at SLAC, Harvard-Smithsonian CfA, IPAC Caltech, STScI, and GGGI; the company also serves Colombian government agencies (notably for COVIMA AI-driven deforestation surveillance) and the agricultural sector via BeanChain (blockchain traceability for EU compliance) and Enciso Ganadero (livestock management). Revenue is generated predominantly through custom development and maintenance professional-services contracts with government and scientific buyers, supplemented by subscription revenue from Enciso Hosting, the COP ~$6/month "Monthly Service" plan, and Enciso Ganadero licensing. Distribution is direct enterprise sales (including via the US-domiciled Enciso Systems LLC being incorporated in Delaware) plus limited self-serve e-commerce, with channel presence reinforced through AmCham Colombia, SLAC, and various Latin American space/exploration associations.
