Despite there not having been any formal presentation of Panel SP-2 research since the September 1983 IREAPS Technical Symposium, much information has been disseminated. Since then, the following additional National. Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) publications were widely distributed: Design for Zone Outfitting; Design Modeling; Pre-Contract Negotiation of Technical Matters; Product Oriented Material Management. Because of demand, "Process Analysis Via Accuracy Control", originally issued in February 1982, has been revised and is about to be reissued. Various papers and comments which further promote SP-2 research were presented in Hampton Roads, Seattle, Los Angeles, San Antonio, New York, Norfolk and Washington, D.C. In addition, responses were made to two extraordinary opportunities. One was 20 June 1984 testimony to the House Merchant Marine Subcommittee, published in the February 1985 issue of the SNAME Journal of Ship Production. The second involved participation in a work group for the Marine Board, National Research Council, which resulted in the report 'Toward More Productive Naval Shipbuilding',. distributed about March 1985. Of all, the latter is the most significant because U.S. shipyard managers becoming as effective as the world leaders in Japan, is now very dependent upon how the Navy administers programs for building, converting and overhauling ships.
