船舶的绝大部分成本都在初始船舶设计阶段产生，这一阶段需要快速传播设计变更和极高的准确性。初始设计包括船形、总体布置、船舶结构计算，所有这一切都与其他设计学科集成，确保数据完整性、快速传播变更、多用户访问权以及后续阶段的信息重用。
FORAN 可以在初始船舶设计阶段从头开始定义所有船形或导入第三方船形。它可以执行转换并管理放样和光顺。基于参考特征的拓扑模型可供迅速生成舱面和舱壁。

Drawings are generated directly from the 3D model and are linked to it so any modification in the 3D model will be automatically updated in the drawings. Offers options for generating spaces, including 2D views connected to the 3D model. Any compartment can be subdivided into subspaces. Insert data related to the contents of the tanks and associated attributes to calculate weights, centers of gravity and volumes.
A comprehensive environment for the definition of deck and bulkhead surfaces using interactive graphic commands with a simple parametric definition. Hulls, decks and bulkheads are associated topologically, so design modifications are automatically propagated to all related elements with advanced tools to define the ship surface model based on NURBS formulation:
Conduct calculations, such as the watertight characteristics, appendages, draught marks, openings, lightship weight, wave and wind profiles, sounding lines, and modular cargo.
Calculate hydrostatic values (Bonjean curves, Deadweight scale, Stability cross curves, Freeboard, Floodable and permissible lengths, Sectional areas or Trim diagrams). All calculations are made in accordance with the latest national and international conventions, regulations, rules, and resolutions. Users can define their own criteria.
Also calculate flooding conditions and damage stability according to the deterministic and probabilistic methods, taking into account the intact stability conditions, and associating the spaces to the geometric subdivision defined.
