Once the design reaches a certain degree of maturity, managing changes becomes essential. Identify and define the need for the change. Assess the change impact. Notify process participants. Define tasks. Compare before and after product configurations. Change Management in FORAN is controlled by ECN (Engineering Change Notice, in a design context) processes and FORAN deals with aspects like the identification, impact assessment, ECN viewer, task development, and comparison of product configurations.
Configuration Management focuses on Applicability Management (or Hull Effectivity) in a class project composed of several ships. Other important aspects such as baselines, configuration states and product structures are managed.
The FORAN approach is based on the concept of a “series” or “class of vessels” project, which controls the common aspects of the series including:
Based on a neutral framework, using standards like web services, XML and CORBA, developed to be as independent as possible. Allows bidirectional communication between the two systems: publishing (transferring data from FORAN to PLM) and synchronization (transferring data from PLM to FORAN).
The PLM is the single source for generating item identifications.
The integration controls the bidirectional transfer of equipment components (mechanical and electrical), pipe/HVAC fittings components, cable tray components, types and sections of cables, and transit types.
The integration comprises all entities, including equipment, hull structure, P&I diagrams, pipelines and duct lines (3D), auxiliary structures and supports, electrical diagrams, cables, and cable trays, penetrations, and welds.
JT Open is used for the 3D model perspective.
A new representation group (Secure) has been implemented to contain the geometry to be shown to non-authorized users during the reading process for each model object.
FORAN-PLM integration also contemplates the use of Access Control List as a combination between groups/users and authorization levels. The access control list of an item will be defined in the PLM and then transmitted to FORAN by means of a synchronization mechanism for the equipment items and library models.
