CARLSBAD, Calif., Dec. 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- West Partners, a San Diego area investment firm, completed a follow-on investment in NoteVault, Inc., a San Diego-based provider of innovative voice-to-text-based mobile reporting solutions for the engineering and construction industry.  The investment comes after West Partners made its original investment in NoteVault in February of 2014.  Terms of the investment were not disclosed.

"NoteVault is executing on the plan laid out prior to our first investment," said Art McGill, Vice President of West Partners.  "There is an opportunity for Peter Lasensky and his team to accelerate growth beyond our original plan, and this additional capital will enable their progression."

NoteVault offers construction companies a cloud-based subscription solution that enables users to post real-time notes throughout the day by typing, texting, or speaking into a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet.

Users can also use a laptop or other traditional device to type daily notes into the NoteVault system. Notes can include photos and videos, delivering the clearest possible message regarding activity on the ground. Each individual note is encrypted and stored for 10 years.

"This investment will enable NoteVault to continue expanding our sales and marketing efforts, as well as make exciting enhancements to the core NoteVault platform and develop additional features to serve our customers," noted Peter Lasensky, NoteVault's CEO.  "Our immediate success enabling construction firms' ability to increase productivity and mitigate risk validates a demand in the market greater than we anticipated."
