Gerber in general is not best data set for assembly, alot of processing has to be done, manually or via software tools, all with their nice features, but as you state there is no actual datum XY , pin 1 , rotation references thus has to be 'generated

http://www.graphicode.com/GC-PowerPlace this does, I had a dabble and while it does seem quite capable the learning curve is quite steep and I'd wager the price is too. As with GCPrevue, the user interface is hardly what you would call streamlined or

Also Valor MSS Process Preparation toolhttp://www.mentor.com/pcb-manufacturing-assembly/products/valor-mss-process-preparation Has great gerber processing tools, but as stated gerber was never targeted at SMT assembly SO ALL tools have to re-process

MSS Valor Process Preparation, also has great gerber processing... http://www.mentor.com/pcb-manufacturing-assembly/products/valor-mss-process-preparation But as stated gerber was never intended to cope with assembly data only fabrication hence not

Depending on what X-Y centroid / CAD data you need, there are different SW I've used to do the job. If you need PCB gerber "artwork" (rounds, rectangles, lines, squares,...geometric figures), you can use GraphicCode GC-Place & such - load the gerber

There is a lower cost solution out there from Numerical Innovations Called Fab 3000 Professional.
