For EA / Agency

Corporate yachting for EAs and event agencies.

One contract, one invoice, one contact. Procurement-clean invoicing in EUR / GBP / USD, a pre-approved vendor list, transparent pricing in five languages. So you don't chase suppliers — you submit the SOW to procurement straight away.

Your headache

Five pains we remove for an EA.

  • 01

    An ordinary yacht event needs 7-9 vendors: charter, photographer, transfers, F&B, decor, security, photo editing. Each comes with its own NDA, invoice and contact. The EA loses their mind and procurement says no.

  • 02

    Pricing in the industry is opaque: 'from €X' in the brochure turns into +40% by the end of the trip. Procurement wants a fixed budget with an upfront quote, which in reality you can't get.

  • 03

    A multilingual team needs the SOW and invoice in three languages. Most charter operators are local players whose English runs to 'the boat is good'.

  • 04

    Vendor onboarding takes 4-6 weeks. The EA signs an event six months out, and in that time a vendor can fold, go bankrupt, or simply stop replying.

  • 05

    An ESG audit and a DPA are required by the procurement department, while the charter operator sends 'everything is clean, we promise'. That does not work in a Big-4 audit.

How we solve it

Procurement-clean by default.

An ordinary corporate purchase of a yacht event runs through 7-9 separate contracts: charter with one operator, the photographer with another, transfers with a third, F&B with a fourth. Each has its own SOW, its own currency, its own payment terms and its own NDA. A large client's procurement department usually refuses to approve that — too many vendor onboardings for one event. We consolidate the whole chain into one master contract: a single SOW, a single invoice, a single contact person. What takes an ordinary charter operator 4-6 weeks of vendor onboarding takes us one week.

The paperwork is assembled for a Big-4-grade audit. A DPA (GDPR-compliant), a Master Service Agreement, insurance certificates (€3M GL, €1M PL), VAT validation via VIES, an ESG statement, an anti-bribery and corruption policy. All on one PDF within 48 hours of the request. The pre-approved vendor list holds our charter partners, photo vendors and marina operators, each of whom has gone through onboarding with BCG, McKinsey, Bain and Big-4 procurement departments. If your client works with one of them, chances are our Master Agreement is already in their Coupa.

Payments are for one amount, in the right currency, on the right payment terms. EUR / GBP / USD as standard, CHF / SEK / DKK / PLN on request. The standard split is 25/50/25; net-30 / net-60 / net-90 are negotiable. VAT-clean for EU corporates, a W-9-equivalent EU fiscal-residency certificate for US clients. The cancellation policy is written in two languages, and the force-majeure clause covers regulatory, visa and health-emergency scenarios. For agency partners there is a white-label option: your brand on the documents, the agency margin written in transparently, access to the senior coordinator.

What you get

Four deliverables for procurement.

01

One contract

A single SOW for the whole event: charter, crew, photographer, transfers, F&B, photo editing, a video reel, a post-event report. English / Russian / French / German / Spanish — five languages by default, others on request.

02

One invoice

Procurement-clean invoicing for one amount. EUR / GBP / USD of your choice, VAT-clean (VIES-registered, a valid EU VAT ID), net-60 standard payment terms, net-30 / net-90 negotiable.

03

One contact

One senior coordinator from the first brief to the final invoice. A RACI matrix by status, weekly status reports on a calendar up to the trip, document control via your SharePoint / Google Drive / Notion.

04

A pre-approved vendor list

All our suppliers (10+ charter fleets, 12 photo and video agencies, 8 marina operators) have gone through vendor onboarding with BCG, McKinsey, Bain and Big-4 procurement departments. The pre-approved documents are ready on request.

Cases

What EAs achieved.

Single SOW · GBP · net-90

A London event agency — a VIP client in Cannes

The partner agency brought in a client (a FTSE-50 corporate) whose procurement department required one SOW and net-90. After 6 weeks: a single contract, an invoice in GBP, no escalations. Four months on, the client returned for a second event.

USD · COI ready · 1 week onboarding

An EA to a US CEO — annual leadership retreat

An EA in New York; corporate procurement required a USD invoice, a W-9 equivalent, a full COI ($5M GL + $2M PL). All documents were provided in the first week of onboarding. The EA laughed — she usually spends three weeks collecting them.

FAQ for EAs / agencies

What EAs ask most often.

How is your SOW structured?
A single document of 8-14 pages: scope, deliverables, milestones, payment terms, cancellation policy, liability, force majeure, jurisdiction, change-order process. The template exists in English / Russian / French / German / Spanish; on request, in Italian / Polish / Dutch / Portuguese.
What documents can you provide to procurement?
The full pack: a Master Service Agreement, a DPA (GDPR-compliant), insurance certificates (€3M GL minimum, €1M PL minimum), a W-9-equivalent EU fiscal-residency certificate, VAT validation, an ESG statement, a sustainability policy, an anti-bribery and corruption policy. All on one PDF within 48 hours.
Can I resell your service to my own clients?
Yes, we have an agency-partner programme: a white-label SOW (your brand on the documents), the agency margin written in transparently, access to your senior coordinator. The terms: recurring events (2+ a year), a quarterly commitment, a minimum of 25 people per event.
What currency and payment terms?
EUR / GBP / USD by default, CHF / SEK / DKK / PLN on request. Standard terms: a 25% deposit on signing, 50% 60 days before the event, 25% 14 days before. Net-30 / net-60 / net-90 on the final invoice are negotiable. VAT-clean for EU corporates with a valid VAT ID.
What if the event has to be cancelled?
The cancellation policy is written into the SOW: more than 90 days out, a full refund minus a 5% admin fee; 60-90 days, a 50% refund; 30-60 days, a 25% refund; under 30 days, a credit toward the next event within 18 months. Force majeure (including regulatory, visa and health-emergency cases) is a full credit with no deadline.
