Bond Technical Management is the world’s leading technical management company for Audio Visual/IT and communications systems onboard today’s most advanced superyacht builds and refits. Bond Technical Management has offices in Sydney, Amsterdam, Hamburg and Monaco. Their goal is to enable Management Companies and
Owners Representatives to deliver a project from pre-contract stage to commissioning at the highest level and to meet principal’s expectations without the bias of a company selling the hardware. Bond Technical Management operates as a consultancy, project management or central contracting company.

The highly skilled engineers and project teams are overseeing the technical management of eight new builds, including the world’s largest private new build, the 162m Eclipse.

ETO’s and Virtual ETO’s
Bond TM provides qualified and experienced ETO’s for yachts from 55m – 162m. These days as there is a higher demand for ETO’s on yachts, Bond TM is constantly seeking to recruit individuals who are top of their game in this field.

Virtual ETO’s is a new service to the yacht industry and is especially designed for yachts that do not have an ETO. Our staff can support, service and administer all IT, VSAT, AV and communication requirements for a fixed monthly fee, allowing the vessel to have consistent, reliable support seven days a week, without sacrificing cabin space. This can also be used as a complementary service to an ETO adding consistency to the vessel.

IT Training Courses
Bond IT Level One course is designed for captains and engineers who self-manage a ship’s basic IT network. It will help them to understand the network building blocks available and used on board a Superyacht.

It covers administration, IT security awareness and troubleshooting techniques of all-important IT services, including troubleshooting and fault-finding exercises that represent ‘real life’ yachting scenarios.

The Jetstream
Bond TM is responsible for the creation of the industry’s new buzzword “The Jetstream®” which offers remote access to all your favourite TV channels wherever you are in the world. The Jetstream® has been nominated for ISS’s “Innovation of the Year” award in 2009 and 2010.

Unveiled at the Monaco Yacht Show 2010, the ‘JetSet’ has also been developed and supported by Bond Technical Management. The JetSet streaming appliance is the newly developed set top box which enables full controllability of The Jetstream® with home automation systems such as Crestron and AMX. Integration into home AV systems will be
seamless with HD audio and video outputs, which resolves the problems of integrating conventional PC’s.
