Suppliers for hotel-technical equipment - How to find the right ones?

When replacing equipment on board, this is always a good opportunity to reconsider the operation behind and improve the operational structures. But finding appropriate hotel-technical equipment can be challenging; a lot of shoreside equipment does not comply with the requirements for onboard use – like the public health requirements, the necessity to work during ship movements, and the exposure to salinity introduced by seawater.
With my services, I can help you find the equipment, that is suitable for the use on board and meets your operational needs.
  1. Supplier connections – let’s find the suitable one.
    Are you struggling to find proper suppliers of ship-suitable equipment? Are you unsure, if the equipment you chose is appropriate for your use?
    During the past years, I was in contact with many established maritime suppliers. And due to my curiosity for new technologies, I also always try to find innovations and new players on the market.
    Together we can determine your needs and find the perfect supplier and equipment.
  2. Feasibility studies – what are the options for your ship?
    Are you planning to upgrade your systems, but aren’t sure if the chosen system can be implemented on your ship? Do you have several options and would like to identify the best one for your needs?
    Together, we can define your needs and requirements, and identify which system would benefit your operation most and streamline your processes in the most efficient way, without compromising your guest experience.
