eBook: 12 Ways SaaS Can Improve Your Environmental Data

Software as a Service (SaaS) databases offer several unique features that allow you to manage your environmental data more thoroughly and efficiently. This guide highlights twelve key features of SaaS databases for environmental software.

IoT Technology for Enhanced Environmental Compliance

IoT is considered one of the fastest growing trends in technology and has a potentially huge impact to automate how we manage water quality, air emissions and other key environmental performance indicators for data monitoring.

In this white paper, we focus on how EHS programs can benefit from integration and interoperability of a multi-tenant cloud platform and Internet of Things (IoT) platforms for managing, organizing, and monitoring the structured and unstructured data coming from various different sources. Once in the platform, a centralized data repository is created that is suitable for analyzing the key environmental indicators for management, sustainability, and environmental compliance.

Configurability Use Cases

At Locus, we discuss customer software needs on a daily basis. It is highly unusual that someone wants exactly what we have out-of-the-box. In fact, it almost never happens. Moreover, if we see this daily, most software vendors see this as well. Both LNS Research and NAEM note that customizations can be problematic due to the cost of the software coding effort and the lack of forward compatibility…

How to extend your EHS software with integrated systems

Integration with other systems, whether on-premises or in the cloud, has become a key wish list item for many EHS software buyers. It allows you to take advantage of other tools used by your organization (or available from third parties) to simplify processes, access information, and enhance communication, both internally and externally.

Locus software was designed with the native capability to integrate with other systems. To date, we have implemented many successful projects with these integrations. This white paper will cover some real-life examples of how we have successfully made seamless integrations simple and effective for EHS professionals.
