Today’s naval shipyards need to be able to control large programs, agilely manage change and efficiently handle modularity, while providing greater vessel performance and affordability. Siemens Digital Industries Software solutions for naval shipbuilding enable shipyards to build better ships at more competitive prices and with a shorter production cycle, thereby improving future fleet availability, adaptability, and reliability.
Newport News Shipbuilding uses Siemens software to help steer the Ford class aircraft carriers on a new course of digital transformation. With the goal of creating its first “paperless” ship, the company is digitalizing its entire process, from design and manufacturing to operations and service.
Today’s marine market demands greener, smarter, and more high-tech vessels. To remain competitive, shipbuilders must deliver those vessels on time, on budget, and on quality. Our Integrated Ship Design and Engineering solution enables marine companies to remain in control of the design spiral. By bringing all their multidisciplinary design data, processes, and tools in one centralized environment, they can break down information and collaboration silos, boost innovation, and improve enterprise productivity.
To meet today’s regulations and market demands, ships need to be greener, safer, smarter, more cost-effective, more connected, and more adaptable than ever before. As new functionalities are added to what is already a highly complex product, more parties (e.g. suppliers, subcontractors, co-makers) need to be involved in the design, manufacturing, and maintenance processes. With ship service lives reaching up to 40 years for a commercial vessel and 50 years for a naval one, it becomes apparent that robust ship lifecycle management is not optional—it is critical.
As the demand for high value-added vessels increases, so does the need to identify and mitigate the risks associated with more complex design and manufacturing processes. This need is compounded by the current climate of unpredictability and increased competition in the shipbuilding market. To remain competitive, a shipyard must deliver bids that are both attractive and accurate. To this end, having a fully planned, resourced, and budgeted end-to-end project management solution has become critical.
Una normativa más estricta en materia ambiental y de seguridad y unos requisitos funcionales cada vez más personalizados han acentuado la demanda de buques más complejos. Esta oleada de complejidad afecta a la planta de producción justo cuando el aumento de la competencia y la creciente incertidumbre económica obligan a los astilleros a reducir los costes de producción y el plazo de comercialización. Para seguir siendo competitivos, los astilleros deben cumplir las especificaciones, los plazos y el presupuesto. Ahora bien, con unos márgenes tan bajos, ¿cómo pueden los constructores navales seguir reduciendo costes de producción sin que ello repercuta en la calidad?
As the economic slowdown continues to impact the already overcrowded shipping market, shipowners and operators are looking to maximize profit margins by lowering operational costs and improving vessel availability. At the same time, the rise of information and communication technology (ICT) is bringing data collection, exchange and analysis to an unprecedented level, opening new horizons for shipping companies and shipbuilders alike. So how can the marine industry capitalize on this sea of newly available data to reduce operational costs and extend vessel availability?

Ship construction is a complex and lengthy process that demands careful planning and timely decision-making. Plan, optimize and validate ship construction processes before building. Use a broad range of tools to streamline your process planning workflows, automate non-value-added planning tasks and validate the best shipbuilding plan. These tools facilitate process design and sequencing, production BOM and BOP management, time management, 3D shipyard layout and ergonomic analysis. Control ship and production lifecycles from process planning and detailed engineering to full production by connecting the entire value chain to realize the best production strategy.
HVAC systems are critical for ensuring the safety and comfort of crew members and passengers. Getting HVAC systems right can improve both energy requirements and internal space utilization. Reduce design time and energy consumption, improve production quality, and maximize available internal space with our next-generation software for designing HVAC equipment and systems for ships and offshore structures.
The demand for sustainable ships is growing significantly. By ensuring that future classes of ships and the shipyards that design and build them are fully compliant with both current and future environmental requirements in all stages of a ship lifecycle, this solution will support your eco-design initiatives and help you minimize the risks and costs associated with noncompliance.
