Executive Summary

For 25 years, Enablon, a Wolters Kluwer business, has been one of the most prominent software vendors in the EHS, sustainability and operational risk market segments. To learn more about the firm’s focus areas and future direction, Verdantix attended its annual customer event in Houston, Texas. The Enablon product vision, articulated by VP Product Management Raj Jayaraman, centred on industrial risk management and safe operations. This represents a significant evolution in the firm’s strategic positioning, going beyond a focus on EHS and sustainability. The new direction aligns well with the priorities of industrial firms: in a recent Verdantix survey of 333 engineering and operations leaders, 54% said that achieving safer operations was a ‘high priority’, making it the top initiative for 2026 (see Verdantix Global Corporate Survey 2026: Industrial Transformation Budgets, Priorities And Tech Preferences).
