Independent technical consultancy · Monaco
Refit project management & new build supervision
Independent technical support · Structured project preparation · Flexible project management
Independent technical representation and project-management support for yacht refits, upgrades, Class Special Surveys and new-build projects: before the yard period, through full execution, or introduced into an ongoing project.
From task list to executable project
A successful refit starts long before the yacht enters the yard
Working with the Captain and Crew, MLC Yachting Monaco develops the preliminary phase, so the Client moves from a simple task list to a clearly defined, commercially evaluated project.

Organisation
Scope, Yard Specifications, budget, contracts, planning and execution strategy.
Communication
Coordination between the yacht, Captain and crew, yard, subcontractors, surveyors and other parties.
Supervision
On-site management, technical follow-up, progress and cost control, testing, delivery and close-out.
Class Special Surveys & technical upgrades
Class requirements integrated into the overall yard specification, so survey items, planned maintenance, repairs, upgrades and Owner works are coordinated within one structured project.
Project gap analysis & recovery support
Independent review of an ongoing project where delays, cost overruns, unclear scope or execution difficulties are developing, followed by prioritised corrective actions.
Flexible support during execution
Preliminary preparation only, periodic independent support, full Project Management, or targeted assistance when technical, commercial or schedule issues require additional control.
