01 // DATA CONNECTIVITY & INTEGRATIONS
All your EHS & S data. One place. One truth.
Environmental, health, safety, and sustainability data lives everywhere: in laboratory systems, IoT sensors, ERP platforms, field devices, supplier surveys, and spreadsheets. Locus Platform brings it all together. RESTful APIs, Electronic Data Deliverable imports, SCADA and IoT connections, and direct file uploads all feed one validated system of record. Data enters Locus once and serves every app, dashboard, report, and regulatory deliverable your organization produces.
02 // CONNECTIVITY
A single reading or record can support the applications, calculations, dashboards, and disclosures that depend on it. Operational data collected for compliance can also inform ESG reporting and enterprise analysis.
Incoming records are checked against consistent format, unit, and threshold rules before joining the system of record. Issues surface close to their source before they can affect downstream outputs.
Standard APIs and native ingestion methods connect data sources directly to Locus Platform. Organizations avoid adding another software layer that must be maintained and reconciled.
03 // Benefits
04 // Key Capabilities
Locus provides a full suite of RESTful APIs that connect Locus Platform to any external system that supports standard web protocols. APIs serve as a real-time bridge: when data changes in a connected system, those changes are immediately available in Locus. User queries return current values from the dataset on demand. Locus APIs support connections to ERP, HR, BI, GIS, and supply chain platforms, as well as regulatory content providers.
Laboratories deliver analytical results to Locus via Electronic Data Deliverables — structured data files that map directly into the Locus data model. More than 358,000 EDDs have been loaded on the platform to date. Locus validates each import automatically against configured rules before any result enters the system of record, catching formatting errors, detection limit mismatches, and unit inconsistencies at the point of ingestion rather than during report review.
Data Quality & Validation
Energy meters, leak detectors, location tags, water quality probes, equipment sensors, and continuous emissions monitors all generate data that belongs in your water software or EHS&S system of record. Locus connects to IoT devices and SCADA systems to ingest real-time readings automatically, removing manual transcription from high-frequency monitoring workflows. Early warning alerts can be configured against incoming sensor data, notifying responsible parties before a threshold becomes a violation.
WORKFLOW AUTOMATION & RULESFor organizations tracking embodied carbon, sustainable materials, and green construction metrics, Locus accepts Electronic Product Declarations from materials engineers and suppliers. EPD imports connect materials data directly to project records, enabling accurate lifecycle carbon accounting without manual data re-entry. This capability supports CSRD reporting, embodied carbon calculations, clean construction initiatives, and procurement sustainability programs.
Sustainable Construction
Locus connects to the enterprise platforms your organization already runs. ERP systems provide organizational structure, facility data, and cost center information. HR platforms feed headcount and workforce data into safety and incident metrics. Business intelligence tools including Tableau and Power BI pull Locus data into existing dashboards and visualizations, protecting your prior BI investment. All integrations are configured using drag-and-drop workflows without requiring custom development.
Analytics, Reporting & DashboardsNot every data source speaks API. Locus accepts structured file uploads in XLS, TXT, CSV, and EDD formats, making it practical to onboard historical data, supplier-submitted records, and data from systems that do not support API connections. Supply chain surveys allow Locus customers to request sustainability data from vendors and contractors, with responses flowing directly into the platform without manual consolidation.
Compliance records rarely live in isolation. Field photos, inspection reports, environmental assessments, laboratory certificates of analysis, and permit documents all provide context for the underlying data. Locus supports storage and retrieval of supplementary materials through built-in document libraries, direct links to Microsoft SharePoint, and attachments at the record level. Every document is accessible to authorized users alongside the data it supports.

Locus Platform supports RESTful API connections to enterprise systems, Electronic Data Deliverable imports from laboratories, IoT sensor and SCADA connections for real-time monitoring, Electronic Product Declaration imports for embodied carbon programs, structured file uploads in XLS, TXT, and CSV formats, and supply chain survey collection. All incoming data passes through automated validation before entering the system of record.
Locus accepts Electronic Data Deliverables from laboratory information management systems and external labs. Each EDD import is validated automatically against configurable rules that check for format compliance, detection limit issues, unit mismatches, and missing required fields. Data that fails validation is flagged for review before it enters the system of record. Locus has processed more than 358,000 EDDs on the platform to date.
Yes. Locus connects to energy meters, water quality probes, continuous emissions monitors, leak detectors, equipment sensors, and SCADA systems. Incoming sensor readings are ingested automatically without manual transcription. Configurable alert rules can be set against incoming data streams, notifying the responsible team member when a reading approaches or exceeds a configured threshold, before it becomes a compliance violation.
Yes. Locus RESTful APIs connect to ERP platforms to exchange organizational structure, facility records, cost center data, and other enterprise information that gives environmental and compliance data its organizational context. The integration is bidirectional, with data requests returning current values from either system on demand. Integration configuration is managed through drag-and-drop tools without requiring custom development on either side.
Yes. Locus APIs support integration with Tableau, Microsoft Power BI, and other business intelligence platforms. Locus data can populate existing BI visualizations and dashboards, protecting your organization's prior investment in custom reports and analytical views. For organizations that prefer to use Locus's own built-in analytics and reporting tools, those are available natively without any external BI connection.
Every data import into Locus, regardless of its source, passes through automated validation rules before it enters the system of record. These rules check for out-of-range values, missing required fields, unit inconsistencies, and format errors. Data that fails validation is flagged for review rather than being accepted silently. This validation layer functions equally with API data, EDD imports, IoT readings, and file uploads, ensuring a consistent quality standard across all data sources.
