Yacht Auditing International

<a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1625">Yacht Auditing International</a> launches YachtOps, following feedback regarding the need for training Captains and Officers in yacht operations - effectively: "All the things they aren't taught in STCW classes." With most yachts being self managed, YachtOps provides owners and crew the 'management toolkit' to do it themselves. One key service is project management training - one of the easiest ways to reduce costs. Captains can choose areas they want additional training in and they will tailor a package to suit. Engineers needing guidance &amp; encouragement in planned maintenance systems? No problem, they provide on board training through refit relief crew assisting leave requirements.

Yacht Auditing International launches YachtOps

This month Yacht Auditing USA partnered with Scott Bartle forming Yacht Auditing International. Scott will be running the UK base, covering Europe, Asia and the Australia’s. He brings with him a high level of expertise in project management and yacht captaincy. Scott will also be heading up the shipyard based program as well as the “Yacht Turn Around” system where they first aim to repair before replacing onboard operations. Yacht Auditing International's staff includes degree qualified professionals, some who specialize in project management, others in corporate relations. Operating yachts with demanding programs has contributed largely to their knowledge base. Bridging the Gap Yacht Auditing International was formed to fill a void in the luxury yachting industry. Independent verification of yacht operations did not exist. Dramatic improvements in ownership enjoyment, cost savings and crew retention, are often not visible to parties so closely associated with the operation of a yacht. Their services focus on identifying and improving these issues to mutual benefit. Improvement Tools Initially conceived as a tool for ownership to fine tune onboard operations, establish progressive operational plans and educate captains, numerous other auditing applications became apparent. Occasionally, ownership is concerned with representation on board whilst they are absent. Yacht Auditing International offers a ‘health check’ as part of the auditing service for peace of mind. They are able to provide tailored auditing to ownership’s requirements. Additional Services Yacht Auditing International is able to assist in the performance enhancement of yacht operations. There are many yachting schools that teach navigation, legislation, safety, silver service, mechanical skills, etc. They offer training purely on the operation of luxury yachts - processes that make up daily running of a yacht. Examples include crew moving to larger yachts or not having the benefit of a proper handover. Yacht Setup / Turnaround Occasionally, in depth recommendations may not be sufficient to ensure implementation. Yacht Auditing International's long term guidance program involves follow up visitation and remote implementation support. • On board crew management • Accounting processes • Owner reporting • Interview training • Crew communications • Specialist areas of concern • Ongoing support Yard Planning Project management is a crucial skill in managing high dollar refits.
