our story

Shaping the Category of Environmental Obligation Management

ENFOS was founded to support the industrial enterprises that forged the modern world, and the stewards responsible for managing hundreds of billions in Environmental Obligations left behind.

Oil and gas. Mining. Chemicals. Pharmaceuticals. Manufacturing. Transportation. These industries built the infrastructure of modern society, extracting resources, refining materials, moving goods across continents, and enabling the way we live today.

As these industries scaled, so did the long-term responsibilities associated with their assets and contaminated sites. Environmental Obligations grew in size, duration, and regulatory scrutiny as industrial portfolios expanded and aged.

By the late 1990s, global enterprises faced a growing but poorly managed reality. Asset retirement costs, long-dated remediation programs, and evolving legal and regulatory requirements introduced operational complexity and began to erode financial performance. Companies attempted to build homegrown systems and relied on spreadsheets and ad hoc processes to manage liabilities that spanned decades. The result was increased financial risk, audit exposure, and limited operational visibility. This fragmented workflow created an enterprise-scale problem that could only be solved with purpose-built software.

ENFOS exists to solve this singular problem. From the outset, the objective was clear. Build a system of record for Environmental Obligation Management that delivers governance while supporting financial accuracy, operational execution, and regulatory accountability at enterprise scale.

In doing so, ENFOS provides the system of record required to govern Environmental Obligations at the scale modern industry demands, enabling enterprises to preserve their legacy through responsible execution.

our reputation

An Enduring SaaS Company

For 25 years, ENFOS has operated as a bootstrapped, capital-efficient SaaS business with best-in-class financial metrics and consistently high customer satisfaction, supported by a base of long-standing, referenceable enterprise customers. Our durability is the result of a laser-focused commitment to serving as the system of record for governing Environmental Obligations inside large, complex industrial enterprises.

Environmental Obligations persist for decades across asset lifecycles, ownership changes, regulatory shifts, and market cycles. ENFOS is mission-critical to how enterprises establish governance, transparency, and accountability across Environmental Obligation accounting, financial reporting, and audit requirements. The platform enforces sovereignty over workflow by aligning internal stakeholders across finance, operations, and legal while connecting them to the external environmental supply chain and auditors responsible for oversight in a single platform.

By structuring financial, scientific, and operational data into a purpose-built subledger and integrating with customer ERP systems, ENFOS maintains dominion over data and operates as the system of record for Environmental Obligation Management. ENFOS has endured by building intentionally through customer-guided feedback, adapting to evolving accounting standards and regulatory requirements, and evolving deliberately with the broader technology landscape.

Through disciplined benchmarking against the broader SaaS market, we recognized AI enablement as essential to remain competitive and are executing an AI strategy focused on advanced querying, predictive insight, forecasting, and anomaly detection that strengthen governance and decision-making while reinforcing ENFOS as the system of record. By staying focused and disciplined in solving a permanent problem in our category, we have grown deliberately and will continue to compound value for decades to come.
