Member News: Grenada Marine Selects PierVantage for Boatyards

PierVantage continues to gain momentum with its industry leading solution PierVantage for Boatyards, announcing that Grenada Marine in the West Indies has selected the modern technology platform over the older incumbent legacy solutions.
Jason Fletcher, owner of Grenada Marine is excited to make the upgrade to PierVantage after first seeing a brief demonstration at the ABBRA Annual Conference.

“I was looking for cutting edge technology to help me better manage my business. I wanted better control and visibility over my financial operations and PierVantage gave me that and a lot more,” said Fletcher. “With over 80 employees working on many different projects, I needed better control over the parts for each project and the labor for each task. PierVantage helps us to track the flow of parts and materials from the initial estimating stages all the way through the billing process.”

Grenada Marine upgrades from QuickBooks and is the latest addition to PierVantage’s growing Customer base.

“Jason is an entrepreneur with a clear vision about his business,” said Navroze Eduljee, founder and CEO of CorVant, creators of PierVantage. “He has successfully developed Grenada Marine into a premier boatyard and clearly understands the impact that a sophisticated, yet easy to use boatyard management solution can have on his operations. Having a customer like Jason switch to PierVantage during a time of growth for his business takes savvy and portrays the confidence he has both in his team and ours. I applaud Jason for making a strategic investment by implementing the best business management solution in the marine industry,” said Eduljee.

Working in conjunction with its current customers, the PierVantage team plans to take the platform to the next level by adding powerful graphical project and resource management modules. “The enhanced Resource Management functionality that will be released as a part of our Summer 2014 Release will really set PierVantage apart and deliver tremendous value for both Boatyards and Boat Builders,” said Mike Frayler, Director of Operations for CorVant. “Our current customers are really excited and many of them have volunteered to be a part of the beta roll-out,” said Frayler.
