Rapidly Growing INF Associates Upgrades to Unanet ERP AE

Published

Clean energy solutions firm sheds several off-the-shelf systems in pursuit of big improvements in financial and project management

DULLES, Va., Feb. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Unanet, the leading provider of project-based ERP and CRM for the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry, today announced that INF Associates, LLC, a New York City-based firm focused on the development of sustainable energy solutions for clients across the country, has upgraded to Unanet ERP AE to improve visibility and save time and money.

Experiencing rapid growth, INF Associates is expanding well beyond its origins as an installer of LED lighting and electric vehicle charging stations in buildings. The firm has evolved quickly and today is focused on helping its commercial, residential, utility, and federal government clients decarbonize with cost-efficient, energy-conserving building solutions and fleet electrification initiatives.  

INF Associates leadership is projecting 30% growth for the firm in 2024 amid strengthening demand for clean energy technology and infrastructure. They knew that to fulfill those growth expectations, the firm would need to discard the various off-the-shelf software solutions it had been relying on. This was due to the disconnects, manual work, and inefficiencies those products reinforced across the business. After a thorough search and several product test drives, the leadership team chose Unanet because it offered a single, fully integrated, and intuitive modern solution that would scale and support its future development.

“With Unanet, we can look at our growth differently,” said Matthew Kavanagh, COO at INF Associates. “Previously, we were running with disconnected systems. We looked at cash versus expenses, accounts receivable versus accounts payable. It was too difficult to do much more with two different software systems where we were manual intervention lead to data integrity issues. Unanet will help us look at critical areas like cash flow, profitability, and forecasting and give us the visibility to review the past and plan for the future.”

Approximately 41% of AEC firms report they lack sufficient tools to access or analyze data, according to Unanet’s 2022-2023 AEC Inspire Report, a widely referenced benchmarking report that highlights trends, best practices, and business challenges in the AEC industries.

Another key advantage of Unanet ERP AE that INF Associates plans to immediately use is Unanet’s powerful AR Automation platform (formerly known as Unanet Pay). This platform automates the end-to-end accounts receivable process. INF Associates believes the platform accelerates their accounts receivable process by reducing manual work and increasing productivity for their team.

With plans to go live with Unanet ERP AE in the next few months, the team at INF Associates was impressed with Unanet’s user interface, the flexibility of the software to work with their unique business processes, and the demo process and customer support.

“We feel really vested in Unanet,” said Kavanagh. “Working with their team feels completely different compared to other ERP providers and systems. It didn’t feel like a sales process. Our support team at Unanet was actually trying to fulfill our business needs. Really, it felt like they were already working for us.”

More than 1,850 architecture, engineering and construction companies select Unanet ERP and CRM because they have the right mix of functionality and accessibility while also offering the ability to scale and grow seamlessly.

Krelva Accepted Into the HBS Foundry Bootcamp at Harvard Business School

Published

on

By

Foster Britton spent four years learning to trade. Jerry Klamm grew a website to $100,000 a month in high school. Their bootstrapped, pre-launch company, Krelva, joins the new program in October and opens Krelva Meet, small live rooms where day traders trade the market together at their respective skill levels.

BUFFALO, N.Y., Sept. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Krelva, a bootstrapped, pre-launch Buffalo company built for futures day traders, has been accepted into the HBS Foundry Bootcamp at Harvard Business School, a new online program for founders working toward their first check. Foster Britton started trading in 10th grade, at 15, before settling on futures trading. Jerry Klamm, 19, built Geometry Spot at 16, grew it to more than 175 million pageviews and $100,000 a month in revenue before he finished high school, and left the University at Buffalo to run Krelva full time.

“Krelva Meet is the room I wish I had at 15.” Foster Britton, co-founder, Krelva

Krelva exists because of how hard Britton’s first four years were. Trading is highly complex, the internet is full of people teaching it, and most of what a beginner finds is confusing, contradictory, or sold by someone with something to sell. The question is never whether there is enough information. It is where to start and who to listen to.

“I started trading in 10th grade, in forex before anything else, and it took me four years to get it right,” Britton said. “It was not that the charts were hard. It was that there is so much online, most of it is confusing, and there is no way to know where to start or who to listen to.”

Today Krelva has two things. The first is a free beginner course that shows people where to start; it teaches the basics without promising anyone a payday. The second is Krelva Meet, which opens in October at $50 a month with a 14-day free trial: a new way to trade Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 futures, not alone and not in a crowd of strangers, but in a small live room with people at your own verified level.

Krelva Meet started with a frustration anyone who has spent time in a trading Discord will recognize. People post their results, and some of those results are real. Screenshots are easy to fake, a few prop firms now issue verified payout cards, and none of it tells a beginner whether the person answering their question is actually where they say they are. So the beginner guesses, and the loudest voice usually wins.

Krelva Meet checks. Every trader has a level that Krelva verifies before they enter a room, and the company is building direct brokerage verification so the check happens automatically. Rooms are built from traders at the same level. Someone who has never passed a prop firm evaluation sits with others who have not either. Pass one, and you move up to rooms with traders who have passed. Get paid out, and you move up again. Alongside the rooms, Krelva is launching a rating: simple, earned over time, and moved by how you answer questions during the session rather than by what you claim. Rooms are not a signal service and tell no one what to buy or sell. They are about the process: reading the market before the open, talking it through with people at your level, and finding out afterward where and why you were right or wrong.

Krelva does not claim to make anyone a better trader faster. It is trying to give people a place to start.

“Krelva Meet is the room I wish I had at 15,” Britton said.

The HBS Foundry Bootcamp at Harvard Business School has drawn attention since its launch for its $699 price and its format, which from Krelva’s understanding pairs weekly live sessions with HBS faculty and guests with AI versions of those same professors, built to push back on weak ideas.

“I’m interested in this new program at Harvard Business School. I think using AI tools to learn is the future, but I’m curious to see how Harvard does it and if it actually works,” Klamm said. “I like that it says the AI professors are built to challenge weak ideas, so I’m going to push it to the limit and see how it performs compared to a real professor.”

The waitlist for Krelva Meet is open now at https://krelva.com.

“Most traders look at the chart at 9:30 every morning by themselves. There are thousands of other traders just like you,” Klamm said. “Why would you trade alone if you could trade with a group you trust? That is the whole idea.”

About Krelva

Krelva is a Buffalo, New York company built for futures day traders. Its free beginner course, built by co-founder Foster Britton, teaches the basics of trading. Its paid product, Krelva Meet, puts traders in small live rooms with other traders at the same verified level to trade Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 futures together, for $50 a month with a 14-day free trial. Krelva was founded in 2026 by Jerry Klamm and Foster Britton. Learn more at https://krelva.com.
