This paper reports on a SP-8 Panel project to analyze the application of Concument Engineering (CE) in U.S. shipbuilding and to perform a pilot implementation of CE within a U.S. Shipyard. It describes (1) results of a Shipbuilding Concurrent Engineering Questionnaire survey (2) a summary of product development performance benchmark surveys conducted at several U.S. shipyards, (3) visit to several foreign shipyards as well as Boeing Commercial Aircraft Company, Lockheed Missiles and Space Company and the Concurrent Engineering Research Center to discuss implementation of CE; (4) requirements for successful CE implementation by U.S. shipbuilders, and (4) the status of the pilot CE implementation at Bath Iron Works Corporation.
