Harbours deserve a new standard.

Berths, POS and workshop in one system. Out front, only the bay.

How it works

Every berth
in view.

Permanent berths, visitor berths, subletting: all occupancy in one plan.

The whole
operation.
One system.

From the water to the scaffold: jobs, customers and team work in the same software.

One system for everything that happens in the harbour.

Pier Standard brings berths, workshop and administration together in one system: occupancy and contracts, workshop jobs and material, quotes and invoicing. Everything is tied to a single case.

Harbour software from Germany: hosting, data protection, GoBD, e-invoicing

  • Hosted in Germany
  • GDPR-compliant (DPA)
  • Encryption to the highest industry standards
  • GoBD-compliant document archiving
  • DATEV export for your accountant
  • Real-time backups
  • E-invoicing: ZUGFeRD and XRechnung
  • Existing data imported straight away
  • No setup fee
  • Payment through Pier Standard: never wait for your money again

Two components, one system: berth management and harbour ERP.

Manage berths and let vacant periods online or on site.

Pier Standard occupancy view: the harbour map with all berths, selection of berth 57 and its season calendar with six bookings.

Pier Standard runs occupancy, contracts and subletting on one shared data set. Seasonal contract, the berth holder’s absence and a guest booking all act on the same berth, without anyone reconciling lists. Whatever becomes vacant can be let straight away, online or on site.

Included

  • Occupancy plan for seasonal & visiting yachts
  • Contracts attached to the berth
  • Subletting of vacant periods
  • Online booking & payment
  • Online & on site: seamless with the POS
  • Payment runs through Pier Standard: no waiting for your money

Workshop software, inventory and invoicing in one harbour ERP.

Pier Standard harbour ERP: quote list, switch to service requests, the open case “Hole in the hull” from Johannes Polgar with workflow, customer details, damage photo and chat with the customer.

Quote, job, inventory, team and invoice all hang on the same case. The accepted quote becomes the job, and every hour worked and every spare part lands on the invoice by itself. Nobody enters anything twice, and workshop, office and customer all see the same status. Payment runs through Pier Standard, by prepayment, deposit or invoice in the portal: you never wait for your money again and never write another payment reminder.

Included

  • Quotes & jobs
  • Workshop & workflows
  • Inventory & material usage
  • Customer portal & staff
  • Payment runs through Pier Standard: no waiting for your money

The AI that makes the difference.

The AI agent operates the whole system. It is part of Pier Standard: it has access to every function and to all the data the team sees, and completes entire processes in one go, from the season invoicing for all seasonal berth holders to the crane schedule for October. It produces analyses and evaluations, builds tables and charts and files them as a report.

Online booking, POS and administration. One system for marina and guest.

Contracts, occupancy and payments come together in Pier Standard. Guests book the way that suits them: online, at the POS or in the office.

The POS on the iPad: overview of berths with booking types, outstanding payments and the day’s arrivals and departures.
The POS on the iPad: vacant berths on the harbour map, with price, basket and instant payment below.

On site at the POS

The fully integrated POS system for the marina: TSE-compliant, on the iPad.

At the POS the harbour master sees what is happening in the harbour today and over the next few days: which boats are arriving, which are leaving and how many berths remain free.

If a guest turns up unannounced, the harbour master assigns a free berth on the spot and takes payment in the same step, cash or card, TSE-compliant.

Boatyard software and marina management in five areas.

The berth holder describes the issue in the portal, with photos and video. The marina turns it into a quote: materials, labour, tax rate, net or gross. Both sides work on the same case, and nobody enters anything twice.

Marina view: the service request with workflow status and customer details, in front of it the quote window with line items for materials and labour, a switch for net or gross pricing, total and VAT.

A repair in the harbour ERP: from request to invoice.

Customer portal: the “Create new request” window with the description of the rudder bearing damage and the attached files, behind it the customer’s previous requests.

Request

The report becomes a case.

The berth holder reports play in the rudder bearing via the portal, with photo and video. The request lands in the system with boat, customer and history.

A repair in the harbour ERP: from request to invoice.

  1. Customer portal: the “Create new request” window with the description of the rudder bearing damage and the attached files, behind it the customer’s previous requests.

    Request

    The report becomes a case.

    The berth holder reports play in the rudder bearing via the portal, with photo and video. The request lands in the system with boat, customer and history.

  2. Marina view: the service request with workflow, in front of it the “Create quote” window with bearing bush, boatbuilder hours and sundries, the switch for the payment plan and the total of 8.925,00 €.

    Quote

    Quote and payment plan are created on the case.

    The marina prices materials and labour in the case and sets how payment works: half up front and half on acceptance, or everything on completion.

  3. Customer portal: quote AN 446 with line items, a total of 8.925,00 €, the payment plan of deposit and balance, and the “Accept quote” button.

    Approval in the portal

    The customer accepts the quote digitally.

    In the portal the customer sees line items, price and payment plan, asks questions in the chat and accepts the quote. They pay the deposit directly via the link and receive the date from the marina.

  4. Marina view: job A 2031 with workflow and customer details, in front of it the job window with estimated and recorded hours, work steps with staff member and subcontracted work, material posted from stock and the status the customer sees in the portal.

    Repair

    Hours, material and status come together on the job.

    The workshop posts hours and material from stock directly to the job. The marina sees whether it is on schedule, and the customer gets start, progress and completion in the portal.

  5. Customer portal: invoice RE 2026-0831 with total, the deposit already paid and the balance due, the payment methods Apple Pay, credit card and SEPA, and the invoice as a PDF.

    Invoice and payment

    Invoice and online payment in the customer portal.

    Recorded hours and fitted material make up the invoice. The customer pays the balance via the link in the portal, where the invoice is available as a PDF. Because deposit and balance run through Pier Standard, the marina never waits for its money and never writes a payment reminder.

Developed with Schiffswerft Laboe.

Pier Standard was created together with Schiffswerft Laboe. Every function was built and tested there in daily operation: at the POS, in the workshop, in the stores, in the office. Today the boatyard runs every area of its business on Pier Standard.

  • Berths
  • Workshop & jobs
  • Inventory
  • Customer portal
  • Staff
  • POS & invoicing

Frequently asked questions

What does Pier Standard cost?
A monthly fee that scales with the size of the harbour. No setup fee, no development costs, no one-off payment. On top of that a 10 % share, but only on berths sublet through Pier Standard — when the harbour earns, Pier Standard earns. We name the figure in the demo, because it depends on how many berths you have.
Who is Pier Standard for?
For marinas, harbours and boatyards — and there for the people who run them: owners, management and harbour masters. Pier Standard covers the whole operation, not just letting berths.
How is this different from berth-subletting portals?
They sublet berths, and that is all. In Pier Standard subletting is one module among many: occupancy and contracts, workshop jobs and materials, quotes, the customer portal, staff and invoicing are all tied to a single case.
Is Pier Standard already running in a real harbour?
Yes. Schiffswerft Laboe on the Kiel Fjord uses it day to day. Pier Standard was built together with them.
Where is our data held?
On servers in Germany, encrypted, with real-time backups. Processing is GDPR-compliant with a data processing agreement, and document storage follows the German GoBD rules. E-invoices go out as ZUGFeRD and XRechnung, and there is a DATEV export for your accountant.
Do we have to start from scratch?
No. Your existing data is imported, so you start with your own berths, customers and contracts rather than an empty system. What that means for your operation is something we go through in the demo, using your own workflows.
Do we need new hardware?
The admin side runs in the browser, on the office computer just as well as on a tablet at the pontoon. The till adds an iPad; it meets the German requirements for a certified technical security device.
