Abstract

A competitive advantage over other shipyards is extremely important in the high-stake shipbuilding industry. Typically, a competitiveness analysis of a shipyard measures productivity based on specific parameters, such as tonnes or compensated gross tons produced per consumed working hour. The authors of this paper consider identifying the technological level required to achieve this productivity as essential, including other information relevant for the shipbuilding process. Therefore, a methodology for determining the technological level of shipyards is proposed based on defined criteria and a structured evaluation. The criteria were devised and structured hierarchically. The methodology also offers company management a solution for continuous monitoring for improving shipyard design and production processes.
