Chemours

We have created a bunch of expert queries that send daily and weekly exports to some users. I have been able to create some complex (at least to me!) queries to get exactly what we need. Most of these are under sites where we have some very specific needs where we are doing a lot of off-site residential sampling as well as on-site. Without this capability, we would have to be doing a lot of outside manipulation. Thanks for the continual improvement of EIM!

Craig Bartlett
Principal Environmental Consultant, Chemours
City of San Marcos, Texas

With Locus’ water quality software we can streamline and modernize how we manage and report our critical water quality and wastewater data. With an integrated mobile application, we will be able to access and react to field information faster than ever before.

Ron Riggins
Water Quality Manager, City of San Marcos
ExxonMobil logo

Locus EIM allowed us to centralize all our sites in a single system of record. Technically, Locus EIM provided the solution that is scalable to our operations and provided the kinds of response times we have observed in our road tests of the system.

We used EIM to mine data for opportunities for cost savings arising from targeted reductions in sampling frequencies and analyses. Most software implementations at ExxonMobil fail not because the software cannot do what it’s supposed to do, but because the software cannot scale to the size of ExxonMobil’s needs. Locus scaled without problems. Locus is absolutely the best software company to work with.

San Jose Water Company logo

In selecting our data management system, we had a few criteria that we wanted to improve upon. We needed to be able to generate alerts based on data. We needed something that was mobile-enabled so that our field staff could use it. Our IT staff strongly preferred software hosted in the cloud so they wouldn’t have to support or interact with it.

We were also interested in the option to expand beyond just environmental data management, to get away from this “one app for one task” approach. We looked at a lot of products—most of them satisfied some of these criteria, but not others. We had a good experience with Locus EIM for our drinking water data, so we discussed our needs with Locus and they recommended their new Locus Platform. It satisfied all our requirements.

Locus gave us in-person training, and as we developed our applications they were able to support us with very good response time. The user interfaces for individual users (as well as for me when I was developing custom applications) were very intuitive. Locus was always there to advise us on how to implement the more advanced features.

Because of the growing importance of data management, analytics, and access to content, vendors with expertise in these areas will strengthen their market position in the coming years.  Oracle is a strong contender in this space, along with SAS, Infosys, and Verisae, due to strong data analytics capabilities.  IHS, Ecometrica, PE INTERNATIONAL, and Locus Technologies, which have databases that contain a wealth of information and data for carbon and energy management reporting, are also poised to gain market share.

451 Research

There are two ways to evaluate Locus: either as a traditional environmental information management (EIM) software supplier or as an energy/GHG management supplier.  In the traditional EIM market, Locus seems strong.  It is an established player, and its future vision for integration with other systems is sound.  Its scientific depth in data tracking appears to be a good differentiator.

As an energy/GHG software supplier, Locus is one of many, and its product features lack strong differentiation.  Locus is well-positioned to upsell existing clients or pursue new ones that also have traditional EIM needs.  Landing clients in the broader energy/GHG software market will be harder, so Locus’ strategy — to stick to its familiar market for now — appears to be the right one.

Frost & Sullivan

Locus offers a robust, cost-effective suite of environmental risk management solutions, giving end users controllable information on demand, while lowering operational costs.  Although many solutions in this market have been tracking and maintaining environmental information, this task was often handled by archaic, piecemealed systems that only addressed individual environmental health and safety requirements, or carbon reduction related data, resulting in a dependency on a large number of legacy software systems, which are now both outdated and inefficient.  The Locus solution provides a clear breakaway from these, in addition to being cost effective and scalable.

Verdantix

The Verdantix report recognized that Locus Technologies’ environmental compliance software has evolved into broader sustainable business software.  The report states that Locus is one of only two firms in the Entrepreneurs Quadrant that claim more than 10 customers with more than $1 billion in revenue.  The report further states that “The Entrepreneurs have more opportunity to win customers in the price-sensitive mid-market.”  Overall, Locus scored strong in customer momentum, master data management and financial resources.

“Based on the insights from our customer panel and our in-depth interviews we define carbon and energy management software as: ‘Software designed to help individuals responsible for carbon and energy management to collect, store, audit, report, analyze, and forecast carbon emissions and energy consumption data to meet business objectives such as planning, reduction, budgeting, compliance and trading’,” said David Metcalfe, Verdantix Director.

“The global market for carbon and energy software is intensely competitive – buyers choose from over 100 suppliers.  To help buyers save time, save money and reduce risk in their selection process this Verdantix Green Quadrant report compares the 28 software applications that pre-qualify as a potential fit for $1 billion revenue firms.  Our analysis is based on interviews with 15 buyers collectively representing firms with revenues of $260 billion, live demonstrations of the 28 applications and supplier responses to a 99 point questionnaire.  Before jumping to conclusions about the best fit supplier, buyers need to conduct a detailed assessment of their business strategy, available budget and usage scenarios.  Suppliers in the Challenger, Specialist and Entrepreneur Quadrants may meet requirements just as well as the Leaders.”

Global Change Associates

Locus Technologies is the definitive source worldwide of on-demand environmental data management software and storage, as well as being a key consulting and support services provider. Locus offers a comprehensive suite of web-based environmental information management applications to help small to large enterprises around the globe — both in business and government sectors.

Locus was founded in 1997 and is the oldest and most experienced provider of on-demand environmental software.  Companies have been using Locus’ environmental software to manage and report their greenhouse gas emissions and other sustainability data since 1999.

Locus also has a certified GHG verification team that ensures all reports generated through the software are easily verifiable.  On December 6, 2007, pursuant to the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006, the Air Resources Board (ARB) approved the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions regulation.  Facilities subject to mandatory reporting will be required to have their greenhouse gas emissions verified beginning in 2010, for their 2009 reported emissions.  Facilities will be subject to either annual or triennial verification.

ARB accredited only limited number of verification bodies and verifiers and Locus is one of them. Locus is the only software provider that may also provide verification services for the purposes of mandatory greenhouse gas emissions reporting.

As you can imagine, water is strategic to the company, and it’s being considered for a future phase of deployment.  As Stephen pointed out in June, the developed world has major opportunities for improving water utilization efficiency.  This domain is being pursued by a significantly smaller set of vendors like Locus Technologies.

451 Research

Competition to supply energy cost management tools for manufacturers and process industries is heating up.

Locus has a home-field advantage in such industries, and is better equipped than most energy-focused competitors to also serve these clients’ environmental compliance needs.  On the other hand, Locus does not make energy management the main focus of its brand, and its enhanced energy features are relatively nascent.  Thus, it will need to aggressively stake and defend its claim in the energy cost management space.

As for the vendor’s partnerships to bring in data on chemical regulations, maps and weather, 451 Research thinks this is a smart move. We believe users will increasingly want data to complement their environmental software.
