Shipyards Construction and Mainteinance

SAILING PRODUCTIVITY

Many of the tasks and conditions associated with shipbuilding, maintenance and repair operations remain the same. The enormous need for manpower in this activity is very evident, therefore the coordination of planning and control functions are essential to avoid cost overruns and affecting the level of service expected by clients.

We have worked in ship maintenance and construction companies where we have been able to align demand planning with the scheduling, control and supervision of the work on the ground in order to maintain the ideal cost and productivity.
