01 // Locus Platform Overview
The EHS software platform built for AI, scale, and enterprise compliance
One platform. Every obligation.
Locus Platform is a 100% cloud-native, multitenant SaaS platform that unifies environmental, health, safety, ESG, and water data in a single validated system of record. Every Locus app runs on this foundation. Every data point, workflow, report, and dashboard shares one architecture — so your organization works from one version of the truth, regardless of which apps you use or how many sites you manage.
02 // Unified from the Start
When Locus was founded in 1997, the company made a decision that still separates it from every competitor in this space:
... build a true multitenant cloud platform from day one, not a desktop product retrofitted for the cloud. That architectural commitment means every customer, from a single water utility to a Fortune 10 chemical manufacturer, runs on the same codebase and receives new functionality simultaneously, with no manual upgrades, no version fragmentation, and no IT burden.
The underlying data model is equally important. Every Locus app (air quality, waste management, water, ESG, safety incidents, analytical data) writes to and reads from the same schema. Data entered once is available everywhere. There is no reconciliation between modules, no siloed databases to synchronize, and no middleware layer to maintain.
This is what it means to have one platform. Not a suite of acquired products sharing a login page, but a single, engineered system where every capability is a native expression of the same foundation.

05 // Sustainability Programs Manager, Del Monte Foods
"Locus truly understands the science behind the metrics and acts as another set of eyes and a trusted partner in validating our data.
By working with Locus, we improve our ability to analyze and forecast our reliance on critical environmental resources, which will help Del Monte meet its sustainability goals. Management of our complex set of activities requires robust cloud-based software architectures that are best delivered via the Cloud. We found all of these in Locus."

An EHS software platform is the shared technical foundation that EHS applications run on — managing the data model, security, workflow engine, integrations, and reporting tools that all apps access. Locus Platform is the engine beneath every Locus app, meaning air, water, waste, ESG, and safety data share one validated system of record rather than living in separate, disconnected tools.
Cloud-native means the software was built from the ground up to run in the cloud — not adapted from a desktop or server-installed product. For EHS software, this matters because cloud-native platforms update continuously without customer intervention, scale without performance loss, and support modern AI capabilities that retrofitted products cannot match. Locus has been cloud-native since 1999.
Locus accepts data from laboratories via Electronic Data Deliverable imports, from field teams via mobile app, from sensors and smart meters via SCADA and IoT connections, and from enterprise systems via RESTful API. All incoming data is validated automatically before entering the system of record -- so compliance data from any source meets the same quality standard before it reaches a report or dashboard.
Locus is the only EHS software provider holding concurrent SOC 1 Type 2 and SOC 2 Type 2 verifications covering Locus's own financials, operations, and security, not just its hosting provider. The platform runs on AWS with encryption at rest and in transit, role-based access controls, and optional SSO. Federal agencies, utilities, and Fortune 500 enterprises trust Locus with their most consequential environmental data.
Yes. Locus offers no-code configuration tools that power users can operate independently, such as adjusting forms, workflows, dashboards, and data views without writing code. For unique requirements, Locus's drag-and-drop App Builder enables creation of entirely new applications on the platform, deployed in as little as ten minutes, with no developer involvement. These apps inherit the same security, reporting, and integration capabilities as every Locus app.
AI in regulated environments requires clean, structured, validated data and that is exactly what Locus Platform's architecture produces. Because every data point is validated at ingestion and stored in a consistent multitenant model, it is immediately usable by AI. Locus OneView, powered by OpenAI technology, delivers natural language querying, anomaly detection, and automated compliance intelligence across all Locus data simultaneously.
