Transcript:

[00:00:02] Hi, Eric Christensen here with IVO Systems, and today we’d like to talk about why different companies- some companies run the same equipment manufacturer, some companies run mixed fleets. It depends on where you are in the country and being from Wisconsin, we’ve heard we’re maybe a little bit unique in this area. And in my experience and our experience is what people care about here is support. If you’ve got a piece of equipment, they don’t care what is on the side of it. You know what manufacturer it is, does it do the job and does it have support and can it get fixed when it inevitably breaks? And that’s what truly matters, is having equipment that works and is available and ready when you need it. You need some of these pieces that aren’t used regularly. Maybe you only have two or three hundred hours of runtime a year, but that two hundred hours is incredibly important in your critical path sequence for getting this large project done on this aggressive timeline.

So that’s really- with our unique Wisconsin- our winters are tough here and we only have a set amount of time to get work done. So what we’ve seen is people who use anything and everything and what they really care about is the support. And that’s what we understand- you need the support from all aspects, from your mechanics to your dealers to your software to all come together and to have your employees, management and field have access to that information to really improve your operations, make your money in the field and improve your operations. And that’s really just something that we think is maybe a little bit unique to Wisconsin but is very applicable to everyone out there. Hopefully that’s helpful. And please reach out if you’d like to learn more about how IVO systems might help you. [00:00:02][0.0]

We created IVO Systems to be the operations software that we wished we had when we were working as heavy civil contractors. When we think about the future of IVO Systems, we are focused on the heavy civil market and the operations- where you lose and make your money. Scheduling, employee management, equipment and telematics are just a few of the things we believe are most important in keeping your operations running. Creating a software system that aggregates all of that information and makes it easy to review so that you can make informed decisions was incredibly difficult for us to make, but we’re happy with where we are at now with IVO Systems.

We understand our customers needs and how they are using our software, and we are excited to stay working within our niche market and double down on what we wanted to do with IVO Systems. We believe IVO Systems is the best operations software in the heavy civil construction industry, and we are excited to grow and help others as a company.

Many customers ask us how IVO Systems is hosted and what our backup procedures are. We host IVO Systems on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud, and our backups run automatically all the time. AWS is a subsidiary of Amazon that provides on-demand cloud computing platforms to companies such as ours.

We know how important availability of our app is and we also know how important your data is. We’re always working to make sure our app is available when you need it, and to ensure the security and availability of your data.

What experiences have customers had after implementation?

[00:00:02] Hi, Eric Christensen here with IVO Systems, and today we’d just like to talk to you about what have our customers experienced after implementing IVO Systems and really as a new company, that is our main focus. And what we care about most is our current customers and are they getting value out of our software, and we’ve been very pleasantly surprised that they’re actively using it every day, even on the weekends. They’re using it how we hoped. And that’s what makes us most excited about our future here at IVO Systems and hoping we can help more customers help improve their operations. Please reach out, give us a call or fill out a form. And we’d love to chat about our software options and others that are out there and see if we can help you and you can help us. [00:00:02][0.0]

Hey, Eric Christensen here with IVO Systems, enjoying the beautiful April weather, unseasonably warm here in Wisconsin, the state capital, and wanted to touch base with you about what can you expect with setting up a demo with IVO Systems. We really, to start off, understand the construction industry and want to help move the construction industry forward. We know what accounting software is out there. We know what building software is out there. And frankly, we created an operations software for your day to day that we think you need. But when we say schedule a software demo with IVO Systems myself, or Bob Lien, one of the co-founders, usually tries to be on a call because we really are going to have a consultation about what your real software needs are now and in the future. And we’d love that opportunity. And please see the link below to fill out a form to learn more and set something up. Thanks and have a great day and season.

At IVO Systems, we are trying to move the heavy civil construction industry forward with our software, and we understand that there’s many companies who don’t have any software because they aren’t sure if it will meet their specific needs. 

Even if your company has no experience, using IVO Systems is easy to understand and implement, and we are here to help every step of the way. With our combined heavy civil industry experience, we’ve created IVO Systems to translate what your needs are into a single source of truth, and not having experience with software is not an issue for any users.

At IVO Systems, we like to think of Gall’s Law when we describe what our core values are for our software. Gall’s Law states that “all complex systems that work evolved from simpler systems that worked. If you want to build a complex system that works, build a simpler system first, and then improve it over time.” We created our software to be as simple and as user friendly as possible, and that is what makes our software special.

Eric and Bob’s experience in the heavy civil construction industry- running operations and managing equipment- has given us the knowledge to know what is necessary for our software, and has allowed us to keep it simple.

We provide a single source of truth that aggregates all your information and keeps it up to date, allowing for easy and informed decision making.

If your company is too small- with only five pieces of equipment and under 10 employees, you don’t need software to help track and manage your company. You can use software such as Excel or even a legal pad with smaller numbers, but once you get to a certain level and add bigger branches or divisions with more employees and equipment, you are going to need a platform like IVO Systems to help you keep track.

On the contrary, companies that are too large, with international branches and tons of employees, are most likely going to be too big for our software. We may be able to service certain branches or pieces of equipment, but a bigger company is probably going to need a more enterprise based software that offers more features.

We are always open to meet with your company and schedule a demo to have a better understanding of your company and your needs to see if your company is a good fit for IVO Systems. You may find that with your specific needs, our modules may be what you need to manage your operations.
