ERP platform for yacht and boat clubs

Slipwise simplifies marina management with real-time space availability, contract management, and task delegation.

Challenge

Slipwise asked Uitop to help create an easy-to-use platform from scratch, focused on simplifying complex navigation and optimizing the user experience. The goal was to reduce the time marina managers spend on daily tasks while maximizing functionality, particularly in a niche market with few specialized digital solutions.

Result

Uitop combined an advanced research approach with potential customers' interviews to identify key pain points of the industry. This led to creating an intuitive, flexible solution with a modern interface that solves problems no one software has solved before. The software got positive feedback from Fractal Software VC and pre-customers.

Project Brief

Slipwise is a SaaS platform oriented to solve the marina industry challenges in boat management and maintenance processes. The main goal of the design project was to build a scalable design from scratch, balancing complex functionality with intuitive business logic, even for non-technical users. The core features are tracking, contract management, and task assignment. It empowers marina managers by centralizing operations and enhancing productivity.

Dashboard

Problem

Similar platforms often have complex dashboards, poor customization, and difficulty integrating different data sources. They also struggle with performance visualization and limited mobile access, making it hard to track occupancy and manage contracts efficiently.

Solution

Uitop designed the dashboard that focuses on real-time marina status and detailed contract management, enhancing usability and visibility. This improved decision-making, streamlined operations, and provided better access across devices.

Contract Management

Problem

Managing contracts manually in marina operations often leads to fragmented data, errors, and delays. Lack of real-time visibility into contract statuses can hinder efficiency and communication.

Solution

Uitop’s design centralizes contract management with a clear and intuitive interface. By automating the contract process we minimized errors, speeded up workflows, and improved compliance, ensuring smooth operations.

Task Management

Problem

Manual task delegation in marina management can result in errors, delays, and compliance issues. Without a centralized system, real-time updates and coordination become difficult.

Solution

The task management feature is designed to consolidate task data, providing real-time updates and automated tracking. This ease of navigation streamlines workflows and ensures smooth experience for any user persona.

Dockwalk

Problem

Marina teams used to rely on manual note-taking during dockwalks. This guarantees missing critical issues or delayed follow-ups. Often reports lake consistency and make it hard to track the current state of the fleet.

Solution

Dockwalk feature allows staff to check and confirm spot statuses in few clicks on a single screen. The desktop version for managers provides clear overview of detailed reports to ensure that nothing is missed.

Technology

We used special tools to make designing the app straightforward and seamless.
