LAS VEGAS, NV -- (MARKET WIRE) -- May 28, 2009 -- TRIRIGA®, the leading provider of enterprise sustainability software, today announced it has been selected as one of the industry's most innovative companies by AMR Research. As part of AMR Research's 2009 Leadership Award for Sustainability series, the company won top honors for the Clean Technology category. TRIRIGA is the only software company to win in this category since the Leadership for Sustainability awards program began.
"We all need to work collaboratively toward a low-carbon future and TRIRIGA is proud to deliver environmental sustainability software that helps customers reduce their greenhouse gas and carbon emissions," said George Ahn, CEO for TRIRIGA. "This award underscores the importance of facilities and real estate in the achievement of an organization's sustainability strategy and environmental goals."
AMR Research is the leading research firm focused on the global supply chain and sustainability strategies for business success. The firm tracks, understands and advises companies that actively pursue sustainable business and green technology innovation. AMR Research's annual Leadership Award for Sustainability recognizes the best in the industry. Since sustainability covers a range of topics, this year's award distinguished candidates in three distinct categories: internal efforts, external innovation, and contributions to the development and incorporation of clean technology into business best-practices.
TREES™ software from TRIRIGA streamlines greenhouse gas reporting and environmental investment analysis to reduce energy costs and achieve environmental goals. TREES delivers automated analysis and energy demand shaping tools that identify underperforming facilities and processes, analyze economic and environmental benefits of capital investments, and automate energy demand-reduction actions to cut carbon emissions and reduce facility operating costs. TREES measures and assesses more than 24 metrics including energy use, water use, carbon emissions, energy cost per total cost of operations, and solid waste recovery to guide organizations step by step toward more sustainable business operations and practices.
"Beyond transportation, buildings represent the most significant source of energy demand within the economy," said Dr. Stephen Stokes, vice president of Sustainability and Green Technologies for AMR Research. "With TREES, TRIRIGA sets the benchmark for efficient, fixed-asset management and allows real estate intensive companies to save significantly on carbon emissions and operating costs."
Many leading organizations lack the core tools and best practices to put effective sustainability strategies into practice, but TRIRIGA offers a solution for the aspiring sustainable enterprise. Buildings account for 48% of energy consumption, and with TREES software to measure, mitigate and monetize carbon emissions, organizations see energy and cost savings immediately.
