About Us

Hi, I'm Ville,

and this is our story.

In 2023, after years of building and scaling companies, I decided it was time for a break. I had just taken my previous company from $0 revenue to 8-figures, and the idea of a long sabbatical seemed like the perfect way to unwind. But for someone like me—who relocated from Finland to his country of dreams, and thrived on building companies with great people who have a sense of urgency and a drive to get things done—the reality of stepping away wasn’t as fulfilling as I’d hoped. In fact, it got very boring very fast.

That’s when Chris Nations reached out with an idea. He pitched a software solution aimed at addressing a critical issue in capital project management. His insight was sharp: every capital project is shaped by thousands of decisions, yet so many of these decisions are based on misaligned communication and outdated information. Project managers are forced to use several segregated and outdated tools, which is not just tedious and inefficient but also highly error-prone. As a result, projects often run over budget, fall behind schedule, and struggle with compliance.

I did my own research and confirmed Chris’s observations. The problem was widespread and needed a modern solution. That’s when we decided to create PRIVV. PRIVV isn’t just another project management tool; it’s like having a personal project management guru who knows everything about your projects. We designed it to replace broken spreadsheets, outdated legacy systems, and cumbersome reporting processes. PRIVV empowers Owners to build with confidence, making collaboration and accountability automatic. It keeps projects on track, on budget, and in compliance, all while increasing efficiency across the board.

Since launching PRIVV, we’ve seen rapid adoption and success. We’ve built a tool that’s transforming how educational institutions manage their capital projects. Coming back to the world of growth and innovation has reaffirmed my passion for solving real, pressing problems. In hindsight, I’m extremely glad the sabbatical wasn’t for me because the market truly needed the critical solution we’ve built.

If you’re ready to transform the way your projects are managed and ensure success from start to finish, please reach out, and let’s build something extraordinary. Together.

Our Vision

Backed by industry veterans with years of experience in the field, we identified a critical gap in the project management solutions available for all industries.

The need for an owner-centric platform was clear—a tool that could leverage the collective knowledge and expertise our team has honed over the years.

Thus, PRIVV was conceived with a purpose: to empower users, from junior-level professionals to seasoned experts, to manage projects of all sizes with the acumen and confidence of multiple senior project managers.
