TECHNICAL SUPPORT & MANPOWER DEPUTATION

Whether it's a new shipyard or an existing shipyard, it needs to be on the top of the knowledge pyramid to stay competitive. Vedam helps by providing support to the shipyard in form of technical knowhow or skilled manpower.
 
Vedam has a pool of naval architects, ship building engineers and supervisors trained in various shipyards in India and abroad and it can provide technical support to your shipyard in the fields of :
 
-Detail design
-Process design
-Shop floor optimization
-Fabrication
-Erection
-Launching
 
 Our technicians can be stationed at site to provide requisite technical know how to various departments. If required, we can provide a team of highly skilled welders, fitters, fore-men trained in various shipyards in Japan or Korea to train your workforce.

QUALITY CONTROL & SUPERVISION

Shipbuilding is a very competitive market. To stay competitive, a shipyard should be able to deliver the just right quality product at just the right price. We can help shipyards struggling with quality control problems in following ways:
 
-Prepare a QAP (Quality assurance plan) in line with the shipyard's practices
 
-Establish and introduce quality control checks at different stages of shipbuilding and repairs
 
-Prepare and implement Shipbuilding standards for hull, outfitting and piping
 
-Identify and correct shipbuilding practices leading to quality problems at later stages
 
-Arrange training for workers and foreman to improve their skill and bring them in congruence with the quality philosophy of the shipyard.
 
Our Naval architects and engineers have extensive experience of new building and repair supervision at various shipyards in Asia and Europe. Our naval architects are extremely knowledgeable about internationally accepted quality standards and regulations of various classification societies. If your shipyard is having trouble in getting passed the quality inspections of class surveyor or owner of the vessel, we can help you in setting up and/or upgrading your QC department. If required, we can also provide QC supervisors for deputation at your shipyard.

STANDARDS DOCUMENTATION

Establishing a good building standard is essential for any shipyard. It helps in standardization of the various process, materials and designs which in turn results in improved efficiency and quality.
 
We at Vedam can assist a shipyard in preparing building standards for the various fabrication departments in the yard. The entire process will require a study of the shipyard's infrastructure, skill of the workmen involved at various stages, availability of materials in the local market and also the specification of the ship to be built.
 
Building standards for the following are essential before progressing with the production engineering of any new construction of vessel:
 
-Structure
-Piping
-Electrical
-Accommodation
 
Every shipyard will have different building standards depending on the availability of the infrastructure, working culture and various other factors. So it is important to have a customized building standard to suit individual needs.
