LightingFlex customers will receive lighting-as-a-service over an agreed number of years, delivered by the MATRIXX® intelligent IoT lighting platform, fully installed, managed and monitored without any upfront cost for an agreed contract term. At completion of this term, customers will have the option to either upgrade or buy the current MATRIXX® intelligent IoT lighting platform outright for a nominal price.

Under this partnership, Origin will be responsible for the management of all sales and marketing of Vivid Technology's MATRIXX® intelligent lighting platform to Origin's current and new customers. Origin will offer MATRIXX® as part of a complete tailored energy solution which can include electricity supply bundled with solar ("Solar Flex") and intelligent lighting solutions through LightingFlex, managed and supported by a single Origin account manager.

Vivid Technology, will be responsible for all aspects of installing its MATRIXX® intelligent IoT lighting platform, including detailed on-site audits, engineered lighting designs, installation, operation, maintenance and on-going monitoring and analytics.

The partnership highlights Origin's leadership in the transition to a cleaner and smarter energy future, with a growing large-scale wind and solar portfolio, coupled with a market leading position in commercial solar sales and battery storage. Origin is also harnessing new technology to offer customers a range of new solutions to make energy use easier, smarter and more efficient. With the addition of LightingFlex, initially to commence with a 12-month pilot, Origin expands its "one-stop-shop" capability, providing a diverse range of energy efficiency and renewable solutions to large energy users.

Samuel Marks, Managing Director of Vivid Technology noted that "We are pleased to partner with Origin and have our award winning intelligent IoT lighting platform MATRIXX® as part of their national one-stop-shop energy efficiency offering."

MATRIXX® IoT lighting, provides industry leading energy efficiency, cost savings, carbon reductions and enhanced lighting output as well as unparalleled operational insight.

MATRIXX® is easily installed and designed to allow for future system expansion and continuity, eliminating re-fits over time.
