Enzen launches IPaaS tech to digitalise Australian utility data

Enzen and TOKN have launched an Integration Platform as a Service (IPaaS)-based solution for Australian utilities to digitalise and automate data collection and management.

Enzen, a global knowledge enterprise specialising in energy and water, has partnered with software company TOKN to launch ZenConnect – a customisable mobile solution to enable power, water and gas field operatives to access real-time information on network assets.

Assimilating data from different sources and systems, ZenConnect is hoped to offer asset, customer and supply chain teams a streamlined experience of utility assets.

The platform functions through a single interface enabling operatives access to location, site, performance and inspection history data, with the aim to improve workflow management, operational efficiency and productivity.
