Enviance and FirstCarbon Expand Their Carbon Software Lineups

Published April 15, 2010

OAKLAND, CA — Enviance and FirstCarbon Solutions unveiled newly enhanced carbon accounting software products this week aimed at helping a growing number of companies in a variety of sectors measure and manage their carbon footprints.

Version 6.4 of the Enviance System offers users an upgrade of the software that tracks greenhouse gas emissions and an additional 1,600 environmental pressure points.

"It's moving toward much richer content, a richer interface," said Greg Scandrett, vice president of product management at Enviance. "It gives users the ability to predefine how they want to use the application."

One of its biggest draws is the dashboard's improved functionality, which allows users to take action right away. "If the user sees something amiss, sees data moving in a direction they didn't expect, they can conduct further analysis, gather additional data and launch a corrective action workflow, right from their dashboard," Scandrett said.

Enviance also launched this week another application named Quick Data 2.0, which has an interface designed to speed and ease the data entry process to suit individual user needs or preferences. Users can link to the application from the Enviance system.
