Engenuity Offers Up Osmosis System

ORLANDO, Fla. - Engenuity Systems and Procuro Inc. announced an agreement to provide the Osmosis monitoring system to the building automation market.

According to the companies, Osmosis is a "simple, scalable Web-based monitoring tool that utilizes a small downloadable agent to connect to any control system." According to Engenuity Systems president Tracy Markie, Osmosis puts the power of a centralized operations center on a laptop or PDA and makes control system monitoring "as easy as chatting online."

"With virtually no upfront investment and almost no learning curve, companies and users can have access to all of their data 24/7 from anywhere in the world," Markie said. "How much more open can that be?"
