On the 7 of June, Aquator Marine announced it has entered into a partnership with Dockendo to jointly market its services in the yachting industry.
Dockendo is the market leader in the yacht industry as a platform to connect agencies and yacht owners to find crew and manage the hiring process by standardising candidate profiles, observing the self-representation of candidates via video CV, adding work references, conducting soft-skills assessment, and filtering and displaying the most accurate crew through data-driven technology.
Owners want on-board services to be on par with or better than those available on land, and a few specialised companies are working hard to match this need. Regardless of how much their owners may love them, yachts have unique hurdles in keeping up with the rapid advancements in technology.
It’s no wonder how fascinated the world is with transitioning to mobile platforms. It has become expected and demanded that everything onboard should be operated and handled by apps in recent years. Because of the increasing sophistication of “smart yacht” technology, customers and staff alike are looking for a way to easily access and manage all of the yachts’ systems.
In terms of innovation, there are more options than ever before when it comes to gadgets, gizmos, and apps, as well as the most cutting-edge improvements in communication, managing software, and recruitment, which are now part of the superyacht industry.
It is possible to reduce development time by switching from stage-gate procedures to lean and concurrent efforts. As a result of the seamless connection between Aquator Marine and Dockendo, recruiting and management may operate in perfect sync.
This will help put Aquator Marine in a position to attract more customers and sell its products to new customers and become a leading yacht software company. Aquator believes partnering with an innovative tech company such as Dockendo in the area of crew recruitment will be mutually beneficial for both companies and strengthen their positions in the market.
“Our mission is to modernise the yacht industry and with Aquator Marine on our side as a strategic partner, we will start to combine our expertise and competence to expand our market, making a bridge between our platforms to give a new range of services and possibilities to our current customers ” – said Michał Niegowski, Founder of Dockendo.
Gerben Visser, Founder & CEO of Aquator Marine, said: “This partnership with Dockendo exemplifies to us the opportunities to collaborate and integrate our solutions to further the narrative of digitisation in yachting. We strongly believe that with our joint efforts to collaborate on the seamless integration of crew recruitment and crew management, we can highlight how technology can help progress the yachting sector”
Initially, both companies will provide referrals, bundled solutions, integration and market expertise.
