ENURGY Utilities Reporting

ENURGY: Online Utilities Reporting System

TRecs Software Development launches ENURGY, the Web-based utility reporting system that allows authorized users to view utility data, generate trend graphs, download raw data to Excel, and save buildings or trends for quick reference in the future. ENURGY offers a variety of ready-made reports to answer basic questions and allows for a transparency of utility data not previously available. See the Utilities and Energy Management site for more info.

University Operations Family Branding: The Commons Center

University Operations Web sites adopt "family" branding

TRecs Web Services has begun incorporating the new University Operations "circle" logos into our departmental Web site designs. The first two sites to be redesigned based on the logos were The Commons Learning Center and Document Solutions (formerly known as University Services). To date about three-fourths of the departmental sites have been reworked or redesigned to reflect their new University Operations identity. Visit University Operations for links to our departmental sites.
