This book was released on 1981 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy Industries/IHI-Marine Technology is developing a long-range plan for the U.S. shipbuilding standards program under a subcontract with Bath Iron Works Corporation acting in its capacity as manager of the Ship Producibility Program. Primary emphasis of the long-range plan is directed at near term (2 to 3 year) priorities to achieve maximum benefits at both industry and individual shipyards levels. Secondary emphasis is aimed at developing midterm (5 to 7 year) and long-term (10 to 20 year) goals to serve as planning guidelines for ongoing efforts. The basic goals and objectives of the U.S. shipbuilding standards program long-range plan are summarized. Included are such examples as the need to reduce design and engineering cycle time costs, the need to shorten manufacturing lead times for critical materials, and the desirability of implementing outfit unit construction and accuracy control concepts. The recommended organizational infrastructure for standards development is addressed, and appropriate divisions of responsibility among ASTM Committee F-25 on standards, SNAME Panel SP-6 on standards and specifications, the government, shipbuilders, regulatory agencies, supporting industries and other concerned parties are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past three years, a major effort has been established under the National Shipbuilding Research Program to support the development and implementation of standardization in the U.S. shipbuilding industry. While significant progress has been made during the preliminary phase of this program, it was the consensus of the program participants and other key industry representatives that expert assistance should be solicited to formally recommend a standards long-range plan for the U.S. Shipbuilding industry. A plan that would include standard program goals, objectives, plans, priorities, and other necessary courses of action. With this background, IHI Marine Technology, Inc., an American subsidiary of Ishikawajima- Harima Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. (IHI). Japan, was selected to perform the task as described above. The principal objective of this task is to present a written recommended long-range plan for the U.S. Shipbuilding Standards Program baaed upon the knowledge and experience of the Japanese shipbuilding industry, Specifically, IHI.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy is required by law to submit a report to the Congress each year that projects the service's shipbuilding requirements, procurement plans, inventories, and costs over the coming 30 years. Since 2006, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has been performing an independent analysis of the Navy's latest shipbuilding plan at the request of the Subcommittee on Seapower and Expeditionary Forces of the House Armed Services Committee. This CBO report, the latest in that series, summarizes the ship requirements and purchases described in the Navy's 2011 plan and assesses their implications for the Navy's funding needs and ship inventories through 2040. The new plan appears to increase the required size of the fleet compared with earlier plans, while reducing the number of ships to be purchased, and thus the costs for ship construction, over the next three decades. Despite those reductions, the total costs of carrying out the 2011 plan would be much higher than the funding levels that the Navy has received in recent years.

Book excerpt: This document represents Avondale shipyards Long Range Facility Plan. The plan is, in part, a response to an industry priority set forth by the Merchant Marine Act of 1970: to improve shipbuilding productivity and reduce shipbuilding while maintaining requisite high standards for critical processes and operations. This long range facility plan is an integral part of dale Shipyards' Ishikawasima-Harmima Heavy Industries costs pro- Avon- (IHI) Technology Implementation Program. The primary objectives are to decrease the time between the contract date and ship delivery and to increase productivity and reduce cost. The purpose of Avondale Shipyards' Long Range Facility the overall parameters for the growth and the Main and Westwego Yards looking as far Plan is to establish development of both as is practical into the future. Through this effort, development patterns can be established within which succeeding growth phases can be planned.

Book excerpt: Cost growth is a prevalent problem in Navy shipbuilding programs, particularly for the first ships in new classes. In response to a mandate in the conference report accompanying the Defense Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2008, this review was undertaken to: (1) identify key practices employed by leading commercial ship buyers and shipbuilders that ensure satisfactory cost, schedule, and ship performance; (2) determine the extent to which Navy shipbuilding programs employ these practices; and (3) evaluate how commercial and Navy business environments incentivize the use of best practices. Includes recommendations. Illustrations, and charts and tables.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Shipbuilding Standards Master Plan was developed as NSRP Project 0360 in November 1992. This Standards Master Plan Update project was conceived to update the earlier project. Much has changed in shipbuilding standards, and most of the basic seven initiatives identified for the 1992 Master Plan have been resolved. They are 1. Establish a communications center for shipbuilding standards. 2. Become more involved in international standards. 3. Gain more domestic involvement in the shipbuilding standards community. 4. Refine the process for identifying and developing new shipbuilding standards. 5. Coordinate existing standards. 6. Convert the U.S. shipbuilding industry to the metric system. 7. Develop a marketing strategy for the plan. 8. Adopt or convert existing global standards for domestic use. This update includes an updated survey, the SP-6 tactical plan, new windows into standards on the internet, and more.
