Abstract
Within the shipbuilding process, the outfitting activities are aimed to be deployed within stages before the ship's erection and ship launching as much as possible, where the cost of the working hour is lower and work quality higher. High level of ship outfitting before launching is one of the most important goals of today’s modern shipyards. In this work, within the ship equipment process, the most important criteria will be identified, evaluated and ranked according to their impact on the level of ship outfitting before launching. Expert approaches and hierarchical ranking is going to be used along with the creation of a computer application to support the solution which can be applied for different shipyards. The result of the evaluation is the sequence of criteria relevant to their impact on the level of outfitting before launching. Based on such results, the authors are proposing improvement of the ship outfitting process, which is expected to improve the ship's equipment level before launching and thus reduce the cost of the shipbuilding process. In the end, the authors will also indicate the guidelines for continuing the research for the purpose of further improving the ship outfitting process.
