Locus Technologies Announces the Promotion of Marian Carr to Vice President of the Information Management Group
SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - July 17, 2007) - Locus Technologies (Locus), the industry
leader in web-based on-demand environmental data and information
management, announced today the promotion of Marian Carr to Vice President
with the Information Management Group.
Ms. Carr's promotion comes at a critical stage for Locus, which is
experiencing increased customer demand for solutions and services that
reduce the time, cost, and resources to manage environmental data and
information. To this newly created position, Ms. Carr brings proven
leadership and strategic ability to assist customers in solving pressing
and complex environmental compliance challenges.
Ms. Carr's promotion to Vice President reflects her expanded responsibility
for defining the strategic vision for the company and its software solution
offerings. Previously as Senior Manager with Locus, she managed
development and deployment of the company's award-winning environmental
portal solution, via a Software as a Service (SaaS) subscription delivery
model, which has driven Locus's rapid growth -- demonstrated by more than
30,000 new sites in the system, signing some of the world largest
companies, and 100 percent customer retention.
Ms. Carr has been designing and leading environmental data management
efforts since the early nineties and has been a guiding force in Locus's
recent phenomenal success. She has been the key customer manager on all of
Locus's Fortune 500 LocusFocus Environmental Management System™
(EIM™) enterprise deployments. Ms. Carr's environmental domain expertise
and customer focus have resulted in new, and repeat, customers and
continued growth for Locus's Information Management Group.
"We are very pleased to fill this important new position in Locus from
within. Marian has taken her vast environmental and software industry
experience and helped make Locus the success it is today. Her promotion is
well-deserved and coincides with both our 10-year anniversary and our
launch of ePortal, the environmental industries' most advanced and
comprehensive environmental management portal," says Neno Duplancic,
President and CEO of Locus.
Ms. Carr's expertise in environmental information management, combined with
Locus's visionary leadership, will help Locus to continue to drive the
environmental compliance industry transformation to hosted web-based
solutions, enabling customers to drive more value with less investment.
"In the past three years, the corporate environmental function has come
under new scrutiny, and customers increasingly understand that technology
is a critical component of operational excellence and true business process
improvement. The domain of environmental information management is ripe for
automation and transformation, away from traditionally manual processes
into highly efficient ones. I am extremely pleased to be part of Locus,
the company leading the transformation throughout the environmental
software sector," said Ms. Marian Carr.
