Locus Technologies Releases the First Fully Integrated Software Suite for Water Quality, Water Compliance, and Water Sustainability Programs

First fully integrated suite for water quality, compliance, and water sustainability programs.

Suite includes apps for Backflow Prevention, Industrial Pretreatment, Water Metrics, and more.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., April 29, 2025 —Locus Technologies, the sustainability and Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) compliance software leader, announced the release of Locus Water, the first end-to-end, AI-ready software that has been future-proofed for the water utility industry. The suite is uniquely built upon state-of-the-art multitenant cloud, metadata-driven software-as-a-service (SaaS) architecture, empowering water and wastewater utilities to adapt to shifting priorities and address current demands without redundant data entry, compatibility issues, or technical gaps.  

“Utilities have struggled with fragmented, outdated, or single-purpose systems for too long,” said Neno Duplan, founder and CEO of Locus Technologies. “That’s why Locus Water is a game-changer for water pros trying to keep up with everything from DMRs, CCRs, PFAS and compliance to cyber security and customer outreach. We’re unifying the entire water lifecycle – from source to discharge and from metrics to quality.” 

Locus Water is comprised of eight optional and unified software apps: Drinking Water Compliance, Backflow Prevention, Industrial Pretreatment, Water Metrics, Stormwater Inspections, Test Equipment Management, Watershed Maintenance, and Customer Complaints to help water professionals efficiently leverage the data generated by diverse water initiatives for tracking, tasking, and reporting. Additional purpose-built apps are slated for release after the completion of ongoing beta tests with several water districts. As part of the software release, Locus also announced an incentive program to help water utilities quickly migrate to the new technology. 

“Water is the world’s most precious resource, and it warrants technology that rises to that level of significance,” said Duplan. “Locus Water enables true digital transformation and raises the bar for the entire industry.” 

All applications in the Locus Water collection support data capture from mobile, IoT devices, and API connectors, and they share a common user interface, a workflow engine, a reporting dashboard, GIS, Single Sign-On (SSO) and enterprise-grade security, and configuration tools for power users to adjust the software. The configurable nature of the metadata-driven architecture positions Locus clients to quickly respond to regulatory changes, emerging contaminants, and EHS compliance and ESG/CSRD requirements from the same interface.

Locus Technologies Reaches PFAS Tracking Milestone with 3 Million Records

Becomes Largest Real-time Database of Global PFAS Records from Nearly 40,000 Locations.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., April 9, 2025 —Locus Technologies, the leader in sustainability and Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) compliance software, announced that as of today, Locus clients have collectively contributed 3,000,000 validated Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) records to the company’s environmental database, making it the most extensive real-time, aggregated global analytical and geospatial PFAS information source. The records are secured in Locus’s sophisticated, multitenant SaaS database.  

Locus’s expansive PFAS dataset includes all 430 chemicals identified in the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) PFAS inventory, collected from 38,553 global sites, predominantly in the United States. By combining advanced geographic information system (GIS) tools and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven analytics, Locus provides unmatched capabilities for identifying contamination sources, tracking environmental accumulations in water, soil, and living organisms, and visualizing critical “hot spots” for strategic remediation. 

“This milestone underscores our commitment to advancing environmental safety through technology innovation,” said Neno Duplan, founder and CEO of Locus Technologies. “Our multitenant SaaS infrastructure uniquely positions Locus as the only platform capable of aggregating, analyzing, and reporting critical PFAS data in real-time. With three million records, we’ve reached an unprecedented capability for understanding and managing this global health threat.”  

Locus Technologies’ multitenant SaaS platform enables individual organizations to securely manage and report their PFAS sampling data and compliance requirements while gaining broader insights from aggregated data. The company’s unique software architecture empowers clients to stay ahead of stringent regulatory frameworks, including emerging EU directives and global ESG reporting demands, while ensuring the absolute privacy of their proprietary information.  

“Emerging research indicates the PFAS health crisis will be more significant than Asbestos, lead, and tobacco combined. Empowering organizations to effectively track and manage this data is imperative,” said Duplan. By leveraging the real-time analytical power of Locus, utilities, government agencies, and enterprises can proactively manage PFAS risks, streamline regulatory compliance, and safeguard public health and environmental ecosystems worldwide.
