  • Monitor fabrication, machining, and production in real time.
  • Collaborate with Clients and Suppliers to assure Quality of Service
  • Automate approvals and manage change requests with workflows.
  • Reduce delays and ensure on-time vessel delivery.

Integrated Shipbuilding Project Management

ProjectVIEW ERP is a shipbuilding project management ERP software that connects seamlessly with Maxsurf, ShipConstructor, Oracle Primavera P6, and MS Project to extract BOQs and WBSs. By linking BoQ, WBS, and Cost Codes across all processes, it delivers reliable shipbuilding industry solutions that enhance planning accuracy, cost control, and compliance.

Designed for speed, quality, and profitability, it helps shipyards optimize workflows, forecast shortages, and prevent overruns. As a trusted shipyard management solution, ProjectVIEW ERP ensures timely, efficient, and profitable project delivery for large-scale enterprises.

Why ProjectVIEW ERP is Ideal for Shipbuilders?

End-to-End Project Management

ProjectVIEW ERP offers a complete suite of tools to manage shipbuilding, ship repairing, dry docking, expedient works, and riding crew services throughout the vessel’s lifecycle. From initial design and procurement through construction and delivery, the seamless integration of processes ensures that shipbuilders can stay on top of every aspect of the vessel creation and service process.

Stakeholders Common Data Environment

Our Document Management Module (DMS) allows stakeholders to securely distribute digitally designs, quality and inspection documents, control versions and ensure compliance with project requirements, while tracking ongoing changes and alleviating disputes.

Dock and Shipyard Management

Optimize docks and yard space availability by aligning construction demands with building and drydocking schedules, providing real-time visibility, forecasting, resource management, and cost control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Shipbuilding ERP software is designed for shipyard managers, shipbuilders, and shipowners to manage newbuild projects, drydocking, and repair requirements. It supports the entire shipbuilding lifecycle, providing an integrated business operations platform for shipyards and a client portal for shipowners to monitor progress and approve changes in real time. By centralizing data across all departments, it helps shipyards improve efficiency, ensure compliance, and reduce costs.

Shipyards need ERP systems to manage complex shipyard operations internally while also providing clients with a portal to track project status, approve changes, and book services. A modern shipyard management system helps coordinate newbuilds, repairs, shop fabrication, and yard outsourcing, while also planning dock availability, vessel requirements, and contract compliance. By integrating all shipyard processes, ERP enables real-time tracking of costs, schedules, and production activities, ensuring vessels are delivered on time and within budget.

Key advantages include:
• Shipyard CRM capabilities for sales management
• Integration with CAD/BIM and ship design tools
• Dock and yard space management
• Subcontractors & Contracts Management
• Integration with MS Project or Oracle Primavera
• Manufacturing/Fabrication/ Materials Management
• Cost control for materials, labor, and subcontractors
• Version-controlled document and design management
• Global supply chain and procurement optimization

The best shipbuilding ERP is one that integrates seamlessly with naval engineering and ship design applications such as ShipConstructor and Maxsurf, while ensuring process integrity by linking MS Project or Oracle Primavera WBS with Work Orders and BoQs. A modern shipyard ERP system should provide a secure data fabric accessible by both internal teams and external stakeholders, support large-scale shipbuilding and repair projects, connect with existing corporate ERP systems, and offer flexible deployment options—both cloud and on-premises.

As a construction-specific enterprise platform, ProjectVIEW ERP addresses the challenges of the dynamic nature of shipbuilding projects while incorporating fabrication within the shipyard management process. Whether for a large shipbuilding yard or a major ship repair yard, ProjectVIEW ERP is the only system that can seamlessly integrate with third-party naval engineering applications and manage all processes across time, cost, and resources. This enables shipyards to operate profitably, maintain compliance, and deliver vessels on time and within budget.
