   Structured Implementation Process
+ Personalized Guidance
= SMOOTH Transition and Faster Realization of Value!

CorVant uses a highly structured implementation process to ensure that your transition to the PierVantage platform is smooth.   Our implementation experts guide you through the process of setting up your operational and accounting codes and structures and help convert your existing critical data to the new platform.

How is the Implementation Managed?

The Implementation manager assigned to you will create and walk you through a customized Implementation Road Map and Plan.  A color-coded EXCEL sheet is used to collect all the data needed to setup, configure and populate your new platform.  Each step of the way, our implementation team provides web based education sessions to explain how the requested data or parameter will be utilized by PierVantage.  During the Go-Live process a member of the Implementation team will be on-site for three days to educate key members of your team, help you work through your day to day activities, and answer business process or functionality questions.

Do we have to Go-Live at Month End or Year End?

No, in fact most of our implementations happen mid-month. Our Implementation process is geared to allow you to go-live at any time. As a part of our process, we convert inflight artifacts such as vendor invoices that have not yet been paid or open vendor credits, customer invoices that have not been paid or open customer credits, on hand quantities for inventory, and checks that have not cleared, allowing you to reconcile your bank balances, process customer payments, or pay invoices and still ensuring the integrity of your operational and financial reporting.

What Level of Support is Available during the Implementation Process?
