Owners and yards need confidence. As well as our proven vessel designs, we share insight into performance requirements, design and build implications to price accurately and quality assure all of our work. We further reduce risk through production-friendly, detailed design fitted to a yard’s capabilities, with high quality deliverables that reduce rework.
Great design is a collaborative process we have a large team of designers and engineers able to respond fast and communicate well.
The design is, however not an end in itself. Through the evolution of a project, we keep focused on the outcomes and highlight and respond to any issue which could compromise agreed specification.
Key to our success has been our reliability and track record to deliver challenging designs that meet performance and specification time and time again.
Underpinning this ability is the understanding our design team have of production related issues and the close cooperation we foster with shipyard production.
The origin of many of our concept designs come from blue-sky thinking, however, to be valuable, innovation needs to be grounded
