Eco-design is a key trend in industry today. DCNS, a major French shipbuilder, has taken a position in this market thanks to a consortium of several concerned specialists: Arts et Métiers ParisTech, Ifremer, SITA Suez, and Bureau Veritas. The purpose is to create a tool to assess the impacts on the aquatic environment, but also an eco-design tool making it possible to improve design. Based on life cycle analysis (LCA) principles, it is improved by a specific eco-indicator for the maritime environment and the possibility of a return to design at the design stage. This tool is currently being developed by a computer engineer. The functionalities proposed and expected in the tool requirements are being tested by this development.
