Shipbuilding project management
Each NASDIS project has an assigned project manager who, depending on the disciplines involved, is supported by team leaders (lead engineers) for each discipline.
E-mail and web-based applications are available to provide fast and efficient communication between personnel, including the project manager, team leaders, and, depending on the issue, the director, who has the final responsibility as the project sponsor.
The design progress is monitored via a monthly / weekly progress reporting system, which uses software tools to support scheduling, planning and capacity allocations.

The company is experienced in using a variety of tools to manage major projects shared between multiple players, and emphasis is always placed on improving interface management procedures. NASDIS also produces complete 3D models or just model segments, depending on the clients’ requirements.
The company delivers netcat (NC) output for different cutting machines / shipyards, whereby the cutting files are customised according to the ESSI standard code. NASDIS has also produced and implemented software interfaces between design systems and production-acquisition systems.
