ProjectVIEW ERP : Shipyard Management Software for Shipbuilders

Shipbuilders

Shipbuilders transform design concepts into fully constructed vessels, from commercial ships to offshore units. Managing complex engineering, fabrication, and assembly processes, they coordinate skilled labor, materials, and technology to deliver high-quality ships that meet strict safety, performance, and regulatory standards.

With ProjectVIEW ERP shipbuilding ERP and shipyards management software, shipyards gain real-time situation awareness on progress and cost, ensuring efficient, compliant, and on-time vessel delivery.

Scope Ambiguity & Risk Allocation

Challenge

Under BIMCO contracts, shipbuilders face increased risk due to ambiguous scope or documentation. Unclear BoQs at tendering create pricing risks that escalate into costly delays and disputes during vessel construction.

Solution

ProjectVIEW ERP integrates estimation, procurement, and cost control, providing accurate cost breakdowns, faster submissions, and reliable project baselines.

Supply Chain Disruptions

Challenge

Global shortages, marine transport issues, customs delays, or supplier insolvency can halt shipbuilding progress, delaying critical components and materials—causing idle time, higher costs, and missed delivery deadlines.

Solution

By connecting Site Item Requests, Procurement, Warehouse, and Materials Control, ProjectVIEW ERP streamlines the supply chain cycle, enabling just-in-time procurement for shipyards.

Change Management & Claims Preparation

Challenge

Complex shipbuilding requires integration of multiple systems and trades. Frequent regulatory changes, unclear instructions for machinery installation, and informal communication create confusion and delays. Shipbuilders struggle to submit justified variation claims, leading to disputes and payment delays.

Solution

ProjectVIEW ERP BoQ versioning control tracks BoQ and WBS changes with related drawings while automating approval workflows, enabling transparent change management and faster claims preparation.

Resource & Subcontractor Coordination

Challenge

Shipyards must manage diverse subcontractors and specialized trades, with strict quality control and tight scheduling in confined and regulated environments. Missteps increase risks of delays and disputes.

Solution

ProjectVIEW ERP Site Applications capture subcontractor productivity, align certifications with payments, and ensure compliance in shipyard operations.

Client-Mandated ERP System Implementation

Challenge

Shipowners, governments, and banks increasingly demand digital reporting and traceability. Fragmented shipyard systems hinder real-time progress, cost, and compliance reporting, reducing assurance and competitiveness.

Solution

ProjectVIEW ERP acts as a centralized cloud-based shipbuilding ERP platform, providing secure reporting, real-time situation awareness, and knowledge dissemination to all stakeholders.
