Centrana brings all corrective and scheduled work into one platform, creating a clear, connected foundation across sites and teams. Through a managed service provider network, users can easily source marketplace vendors. The platform tracks ongoing field work operations to strengthen asset data, combining live inputs with enriched data and benchmarks to enable better insights and decision-making.

“With Centrana, we set out to solve one of the biggest challenges facing operations and energy leaders today: fragmented systems that limit their ability to see the full picture,” said Dan Taylor, Chief Innovation Officer at ForeFront Power. “Centrana brings all of that critical activity and data together into a single platform—turning everyday work into actionable insights so teams can operate confidently, adapt quickly, and stay ahead of what’s next.”

“Centrana represents an important step forward in ForeFront Power’s mission to provide smarter, cleaner, and more resilient solutions for our customers,” said Dr. Ruben R. Fontes, CEO of ForeFront Power. “For years, we’ve supported organizations in transforming the way they generate and manage energy. With Centrana, we’re extending that commitment into the operational core of their facilities—giving teams the tools they need to make faster decisions, optimize performance, and chart a more sustainable future.”

Developed with direct input from facilities managers, energy strategists, and sustainability leaders, Centrana is designed to reflect the real workflows and needs of the people who keep complex organizations running. Feedback gathered during development highlighted the need for a platform that not only connects disparate systems but also enhances operational intelligence by delivering cleaner data and more integrated views of these complex operations.

On the platform’s Marketplace, organizations gain access to a managed network of service partners focused on accountability and performance, offering a more reliable alternative to traditional vendor directories. The platform also includes a mobile application enabling field technicians to view assignments, check in and out of job sites, and upload notes and images directly from the field—ensuring real-time data accuracy.

With Centrana, decision-makers can better understand where their time and focus will deliver the most impact for their portfolios. They can streamline coordination, reduce costs, extend asset life, and identify projects that will move their organizations forward.

Centrana is now available to facilities, energy, and sustainability teams with onboarding and demo options offered directly through www.centrana.com.
