Abstract

In today competitive shipbuilding market, it is not unusual that shipyards are using outsourced detailed
documentation into their production program or to continue outfitting a ship that originally had been
designed and started in another shipyard or design office. That involves some difficulties in adapting
to different requirements which can require overhead organisation, a multiskilled work force, and the
ability to respond rapidly to emerging conditions that affect a ship’s operating schedule. Also, the
detail design approach in various design offices is mostly different, and can be a result of differences in
information included within detail documentation, such as more or less advanced outfitting approach,
zone-oriented outfitting versus discipline, or system oriented outfitting approach. In this paper the
outfitting process in a particular shipyard is observed through comparison between two principles of
production design approaches, one originally made in observed shipyard and one which was designed
in outsourced design office. The main goal of this paper is to develop a procedure of evaluating ship
outfitting processes, using detail design as a way to establish appropriate shipbuilding production
process. Hence, it should reduce building costs related to adopting different types of outsourced detail
design documentation to the own shipyard production process.
